Hey guys,

I've got a 25 neo in my R32. Got a loom spliced together as part of the engine package. All works great except when I went to get it tuned the tuner said the knock sensors weren't working. I can't remember whether we (my brother and I) used the 32 or the 34 knock sensors but I've been told they should both work.

We're guessing the wiring in the loom somewhere is cactus so is there a way to wire them directly to the ECU?

Thanks!

the knock sensor loom on rb25's is part of the alternator loom. so if you used the 32 alt loom then you'll have no knock sensors hooked up at all.

on the intake mani theres two big wite plugs.. one is for injectors and the other is for knock sensors... is it plugged into anything?

This? (red and white shielded wires)

I made a thread ages ago about them and no one was much help. It was hanging off my motor when I got it.

I assume this is the knock sensor wiring? Can I just hardwire the knock sensors to where this plug goes to normally?

true but the point is that in this situation i dont think its been wired in correctly.

so if he used a 32 alt loom, he's prob got no knock sensors hooked up.. if he couldnt get any then the easy way out would be to run two wires from each sensor to the relevant pins in that bottom grey plug. (rather then go all the way to the ecu)

I've got a grey plug that goes to the injectors and another big grey plug that goes to the traction control (no butterfly in it so won't do shit).

That grey plug I posted up before was attached to the same place as where you've shown along with a brown and a black plug. The grey plug I've shown plugs into a grey (with purple centre) plug.

And thanks for your help both of you :(

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
