Knock sensors are located on the block right near your engine mounts.

also note that it screws into the block coolant jacket so when you remove it all your coolant is going to drain out. have a look around, check ebay. you should be able to get em cheaper then that.

Check the the pin connector is in nice and tight. You have to pinch both sides to get it off and on.
