    There is a plug just above the computer that is above the computer that comes from the engine harness and plugs into
    The dash harnes do you think this might be causing the problem it plugs in together fine but maybe the wires are lining
    Up wrong maybe

    If thats the case its worth it to install a knock sensor. Can get them off a buick v6 and writing on ebay.
