Default 94 civic vx w/ obdI gsr swap CEL 1 & 23

Alright guys, it's me again. And two more CEL codes came on. So let's start off by saying i drive a 94 civic vx hatch with a gsr swap. Finished everything. Fixed the idling problem and what not. But now i'm throwing code 23 and code 1. I fixed the O2 sensor like few weeks ago so i don't think that could be the problem. And i know 23 is the knock sensor but it was working fine just a few days ago. I have an OBDI gsr swap with a OBDI p72 ecu. any inputs, opinions, etc. are appreciate thanks guys

Thanks again HondaPartsHero. I guess you live up to your SN. lol. I'm using my original VX wire harness but the weird thing is that i didn't even have to convert my O2 sensor from a 5 wire to a 4 wire because it was originally 4. I'm guessing that the previous owner used a different engine harness but i'm not sure. do you think i have to do this still since my harness already came with a 4 wire harness for the O2 sensor? https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-civic-del-sol-1992-2000-1/5-wire-o2-sensor-4-wire-o2-sensor-harness-help-2266257/

My guess as to why i'm getting code 23 is because i didn't rewire or repin my knock sensor. There is no knocking what so ever in my car and the code only pops up when i try to gun my car. Can anyone clarify if i have to rewire all those wires still?

As much as I would I already have a p72 ecu. So you gotta work with what you already have. Merry Christmas bump!
