Default Knock sensor wire

Hello, I have a 2003 Accord 3.0 vtec v6. I'm getting a PO 325 code knock sensor.

When I got down to the sensor the wire is missing. A closer look and the wire is in tiny pieces on top of the engine. There isn't enough wire left to see where it runs to. Is this a common problem? Is there a specific wire to use for this repair? Is it a recall item?

Thanks Paul

I found where the wire goes. its a sub wire to the wire harness, about $6.00 at Honda. Boy its the pits to get to. This is strange, there is only about an 1/8 inch of wire at each connector. So off I go to the dealer to get the wire which is not in stock.
