Knock Code on 2000 Camry

The check engine light came on the other day and i took it in to see
what was wrong. They ran a diagnostic test and said that the Knock
sensor was malfunctioning. He said i had to replace the knock sensor
which would cost about $250.

I'm a little concerned about this because shouldn't they have atleast
tested the sensor to check resistence?
what if the sensor is fine and there really is a "knocking" problem?
I realise that it may be difficult to check the sensor but my car is a
4 cylinder and from what i'm told it appears it is easy to get at.

i don't know a lot about cars but simply replacing a sensor that shows
a malfunction doesn't really seem like a solution.

Any ideas?
