Default obd1 GSR knock sensor help!

Im almost done with the swap into eg i think. Im using the GSR engine harness. The main thing i need to know is what color wire the gsr knock sensor is so i can cut the into the engine harness and hook it up to the p72. Also, i was wondering what these 2 wires are for!!! Hopfully they are for the knock sensor. if there is anything else i should be aware of, please tell me.

Do you know what color for knock sensor wire? where it is at on the engine harness? Since im using the gsr engine harness, it should be in there somewhere. I dont want to cut the wire right by the knock sensor. And that other plug, it comes out with the 3 plugs that plug into the ecu harness by the passanger shock tower.

to end this tread, i'd like to say i found the stock o2 wire by the shock tower and hooked it up right.
looks cleaner than a wire directly from the knock sensor. also found the butterfly wires but decided to not hook it up.
that plug is still not connected to anything and my car funs fine.

That extra wire seems to be kinda like an extra o2 sensor if i remember. Dont worry about it, it means nothing. Yes, i dono why honda made it but trust me, it dosn't hook up to anythng in a eg chassis.

With your codes, get a new o2 sensor. A faulty o2 senser can throw those codes also. i think i had the same problem with a swap and some honda-tech dude recomened a new o2 sensor, got one then CEL no more.

I bought a NTK off ebay and it worked fine. cheap also.

Hope this helps. If not, sorry if i made you waste your time and money.
