Hello,
I recently had my check engine light come on my 1995 Maxima SE (150k
miles). I used a ODB-II tool to pull the codes and came up with P0325
and P0115.
I've read some bantor on the web and decided to start testing the
engine coolant temperature sensor (P0115) before I looked at the knock
sensor (P0325).
The problem I have is in getting at the coolant temp sensor...I've
looked at the FSM and also my Haynes book and they all have pretty
clear pictures of it but no real description that walks you through
what all needs to be removed in order to get at it.
I have removed some hoses but there are still obstacles in my way. I
can physically touch the sensor but not well enough to get a grip on it
and pinch the top so I can remove the wiring harness.
FWIW, I did find a neat page that explains how to replace a knock
sensor: http://www.motorvate.ca/mvp.php/507
Does anyone have a "step-by-step" on how to replace/test an engine
coolant temperature sensor? Does this sound like the right approach?
TIA!

replace the coolant temp. sensor and ignore the knock sensor as , the knock
sensor will not turn on the MIL
