for quite some time i've been having trouble with my knock sensor. it keeps throwing a code even after i have replaced the sensor,rebuilt the motor, and redid my wiring( thanks tweak). we just rechecked the timing and its set at 10degreesTDC. i cant possibly think of anything else that could be causing a problem. could a bad ecu cause this to happen? if it was bad wouldn't the car not run at all? i've tried searching but all people ever say is to replace the sensor.... i'm really needing some more ideas on what else i need to check. Thank you.

If the wiring and the sensor is good, then I would first look at your ignition timing to be sure it's correct, and then I would try another ECU. I did one time see an ECU that kept throwing a code despite the fact that everything checked out. We tried another ECU, and the code never came back. -Doc just checked timing a few days ago and it was correct. How much boost are you running? Why was your motor rebuilt? i havent took it past 8psi since the rebuild. i rebuilt it bcz it spun a bearing and started knocking. everything was machined to spec. and/ or replaced except for now being bored .020 over. it will throw a code even if i'm not boosting. as soon as i hit 1800rpm the cel comes on. -------------------- 1st car- 1994 Celica GT 2.2L 5s-fe SOLD
