To find it definitively, you'll need:
* Your Tahoe's repair manual: This will have a diagram showing the exact location.
* A visual inspection: Look along the passenger side of the engine block, near the cylinder head. The sensor is usually a small, threaded unit, often with a single wire connected to it.
* Online resources: Search for "2005 Chevy Tahoe knock sensor location [your engine size]" on sites like YouTube or repair forums. Pictures from others who've worked on the same engine can be very helpful.
Important Note: Before attempting any work on your engine, disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent accidental short circuits.
