Stupid Knock sensor question.
Okay I've looked up as much info on this as I could and found some stuff but not all I was looking for.
To start I have a 92 VX hatch I swapped a B16a into it and used a obd1 gsr engine harness and a JDM p30 ecu. I repined the 10 pin connector in the engine bay to convert the vehicle from 5 pin O2 to 4 pin and put the wire in were is was told for knock. so now im stumped. I get a KS CEL only after the car warms up and I drive it. I can sit still once it's warmed and rev it no light, same thing with a small idle surge doesnt start till KS Cel comes on. Any idea's
****NOTE*******
I Have solved and finally Fixed this freekin problem....WOOT
I downloaded the Helms manual from my buddy at http://www.spoonertuner.com/
and ran through the Knock Sensor Trouble shooting steps. And I found that at the sensor it's self the pin in the plug was not connecting and it was backwards meant for obd2... So I fixed ran and walla no more CEL.. thank you to all that helped and answered my questions....

Re: Stupid Knock sensor question.
just try running a wire from the knock sensor(blue/red wire) straight too the ecu. it goes to pin 3 on connector D. if that doesent work you may just need too replace the sensor

Re: Stupid Knock sensor question.
couldent tell you man sorry! web is the best bet! if you just changed things with the engine harness and not the bodys harness you wont have a wire running too the ecu from the KN since the vx dont have the knock sensors. if you see a blue and red wire from your engine harness not connected too anything from the bodys you gota wire it up yourself like i did once. this pic shows where to wire the KN

Re: Stupid Knock sensor question.
I did do the wireing to the ecu like it said in another thread to convert the VX wiring to run a integra gsr or b16 in it and swap the o2 but i cant find the thread. Maybe I did not get the wire plugged all the way into the connector?

Found it https://honda-tech.com/forums/hybrid-engine-swaps-18/complete-obd1-b18c1-into-civic-vx-wiring-instructions-644434/ I did all this without IABs cause I wired a b16a with a P30 ecu
