I've recently fitted a Knocklink with sperate sensor... the sensor was fitted as per Jan Shims pic (i.e under the IC). I was just woundering where the standard one lives 'cos i can't seem to find it! Im having a bit of trouble with knock showing on my knocklink which the ECU doesn't seem to want to do anything about... so i wanted to check the OEM sensor (as per the Subaru diagnostic manual). But i can't find the damm sensor .

Anybody know where it is... a pic would be good too.

Mines on the block behind the alternator!!
Thought that is on a MY97 UK

Cheers i'll have a look there.... i take it that the OEM one looks similar to the Bosch one i got with the knocklink???

Tony.

 

Yep!!!

 

Cheers,

Looks like i'll have my head stuck under the bonnet again tonight .

Anybody with an early car like to comment on where theirs are?

Tony.

 

towards the rear of the block. still on top, but say under the throttle body.

 

Hmmmmm..... that's where i've put the new bosch one i think???? Just near the breather pipe of the ISC. I'll have another look tho.

Cheers,

Tony.

 

yeah thats where it is on mine. seen others the same too. i dont have a knocklink..yet

 

****..... if i didn't have one i presume i'd get the CEL so it must be somewhere. The search goes on..........

Tony.

 

Tone, if you look just under the throttle body you will see a single wire with a grey connector, follow this wire and it leads you to the KS, there is a gap just down to the right of the throttle body which if you look down closely you can see the KS, it is quite hard to see unless you use a torch...
I will pop out in a min and take a photo for ya..

Tony,

As described above, below throttle linkage, very deep down.
It's one of those 'EASY' to get out...'*******' to get back type things

Oh! and the throttle linkage is quite good at trapping your hand. the more you pull the tighter is squeezes.

 

Excellent.... i'll check mine tommorrow in the light. I don't think i looked that far down to be honest so hopefully i'll find it now.

Cheers,

Tony.
