would this be my OPSU? if it is, i don't have a plug to match on my KA harness. or am i supposed to use my lower harness from the CA too?

Well damnit bobby that might just be the knock sensor i was looking for... find me a plug now

Post by **r34 gtr** » Thu Sep 02, 2004 1:15 pm

no, thats the oil pressure sending unit. i just used the plug from my ca and spliced it into the lower harness, not sure if it works at all though. doesnt matter as an autometer sender is going in that very spot.

nab911, the knock sensor is lower down and is white. the plug that goes on it is square. i think its somewhere near the starter and of course, a real pain in the anus to get to.

That is deffinately the knock sensor.

The oil pressure sensor is at the bottom of the block just behind the alternator

knock sensor.

*smacks r34 upside the head*

first you tell us the PCV is electrically operated now you tell us the knock is the oil pressure sensor!

THAT is the knock sensor. Oil pressure is by the oil filter mount thing, as was already said..

ok now that the green thing is the knock sensor, how do you wire it up to the harnees???????? Do you need a plug for it if yes where can you get it, and if it can be done by rewiring then what do you hook it up to?

Post by **iliketocrash** » Thu Sep 02, 2004 3:49 pm

well there should be a plug on your harness. it won't connect to anything else except your knock sensor. i believe there is only one wire running from the plug but farther down it splits to two... i believe... or maybe its two wires the whole time. i could be wrong.

Post by **WeldingHank** » Thu Sep 02, 2004 3:58 pm

it is only one wire. how should i wire it into the harness? or should i run it straight to the ecu wire for it?

Post by **r34 gtr** » Thu Sep 02, 2004 4:23 pm

ok, im sorry. im just not going to post anymore until i get some sleep. if i do get bored and post more, just ignore what i say as im probably wrong. anywho, later!

you saying there is a plug on the ca18det engine harness??? I don't see one in mine....or is the plug on the electrical harness?

Post by **WeldingHank** » Thu Sep 02, 2004 4:53 pm

there is a plug for it in the electrical harness, but there isn't one in my KA harness. should i use my CA electrical harness? or can i splice the one wrie from the connector into the engine harness and give it a ground somewhere as well?

Post by **euroboy** » Thu Sep 02, 2004 5:45 pm

ok i took a look at my et block...and it has the knock sensor....now i have wired the car for the det engine and alot of wires weren't needed to run the car. That wire is in the ELECTRICAL harness of the car, so if i wire it will the signal get to the ecu?. If not any route that is will?

Post by **iliketocrash** » Fri Sep 03, 2004 7:01 am

the plug is a part of your lower engine harness that runs up from the transmission. the other end of the plug should come up by your fuse/relay box thingy. its a gray plug with a white and a black wire i believe. Unless it was ripped out or hacked out then you should have the plug. i'll take a picture if i absolutely have to.

Post by **WeldingHank** » Fri Sep 03, 2004 9:44 am

there is a plug for it on my CA electrical harness, but no plug for it on my KAE electrical harness. could i splice it into the signal wire at the ECU? or should i use my CA lower electrical harness?

Post by **r34 gtr** » Fri Sep 03, 2004 3:23 pm

i just answered this exact question somewhere in the last few hours. look around..

Tim, you're dumb. You're really dumb. And if I catch you being dumb, and continuing the spread of misinformation I'll beat you like a red-headed step-child! Then I'll throw you in a cage with a large, female, silver-back gorrilla that's in heat and let her have her way with you. And if that's not enough of a deturrent, I'll take away that gold medal I gave you...

Post by **Nismo1182** » Sat Sep 04, 2004 8:36 am

My plug was in the main engine harness, just like the KA-DE knock plug is in the main harness. KA-E has NO knock sensor.

If its not there, get about 3-4 ft of shielded wire and wire it to the ecu.

Dam, I was reading through this post and I was wondering how come float_6969 hasn't replied to Tims misinfo, but give it some time and he sure will beat him down, I would like to see both Tim and float_6969 in a wrestling match. That would be sweet

Yea, I came in on it late. But I tore him up good I think. He hasn't said anything though...

im also in the same position you are in...did you hook it up to PIN 23 ON the ecu?? and its just one wire??

Post by **kim** » Sat Sep 11, 2004 10:42 am

Do you have to hook it up directly or something? I have the plug for it on my CA harness. I just can't hook it up with the stock plug from the CA harness? I looked at the CA18DET FSM and seem like only 1 wire and goes pin 23. Do i need to cut it and make a new wire that goes directly to pin 23?

Post by **iliketocrash** » Sat Sep 11, 2004 12:53 pm

you have the grey plug on the other end with the two wires?
