Two things to check.... make sure your knocksensor itself it still good, but more common, check the wire(s) leading from the knock sensor to the ECU and make sure that it's not shorting out somewhere. If it's fine, then it's still good to rerun a 14-18 AWG wire directly from the knock sensor, directly to the ECU so there's no breaks in the line. Usually this clears up the problem unless your knock sensor itself is bad (which I've also seen).
