(1)I have been ignoring my 0304(knock sensor) code for a while. Finally today I check out the resistance. I got a 671 ohms. I know that was a little above factory specs.
Should I just replace the knock sensor.

(2) I also have a 0503(o2 sensor code). I think I am going to just replace it. Do you know the part# for that 02 sensor and the knock sensor.

By the way I have a 95 maxima gxe

Thanks

Your Knock Sensor is probably good. I have to say "probably" because the resistance test is not iron-clad. If a KS fails the resistance test, it is definitely bad. However, if it passes the resistance test it might still be bad. The resistance test is useful but not as thorough a test as what the dealer can do with his electronic CONSULT tester.

Sorry, I don't have access to part number information.

Hold off on the Knock Sensor. Replace the bad Oxygen Sensor. That may clear both codes.
