Getting p0325 code, knock sensor error, Where are the knock sensors located??

Hi everyone

I just got my overheating problem fixed and now I have a P0325 code creating a CHECK ENGINE light. I have cleared the code and it comes right back. I checked on the price and they are like a $ 150 dollars each !!!
1995 Avalon 6 cyl


My question is:

1. Where are they located?

2. Before spending money replacing them is there anything else to check that could cause the knock sensors to throw an error code?

Thanks
Ray

Thanks for the reply. I was able to move the wires around a bit and then cleared the code, I ran for about 10 minutes and so far so good. Time will tell.


Thanks
Ray

thats funny. at my shop the first thing we say when we get a knock sensor code is (cheese flavored wires). we see this once a month.
