Default Knock Sensor! Do the wiring connect at the top or bottom of the connector?

My Knock Sensor wire was pulled out from the connector. I can't seem to figure out which part of the connector to connector the red and blue wire.

I switched them back and fourth and I am still throwing code 23. I even put electrical tape over the exposed wire and it continues to throw code 23 when I go over 3000 rpm's for more than 3 seconds.

the side nearest the clip.

when in doubt, use a new 2-pin plug and wire both pins together

Thanks alot, what if it still throws a code? Could the Sensor have shorted out when I accidently knocked the wire out?
