Knock Sensor Plug/loom

[Rolls]

Hey so I busted my knock sensor plug ripping the wire out of it, it looks like a pretty bloody weird plug, does anyone know where I would get a replacement plug I can wire up, or a whole knock loom (2 plugs and a connector), is this something nissan or an auto elec would stock?

It needs to wire into an r32 rb20 loom but I'm pretty sure the plugs are the same for r32/33/34

Which plug are you after?

The loom plug or the knock sensor plug?

The knock sensor plugs are the same as the r31/vl's so easy fix down to the local wreckers/U-Pull it if its the later.

The actual knock sensor plug, but if I can grab the loom with the loom plug and both knock sensor plugs that'd be even better as my remaining plug is very very brittle, however I didn't think stock rb30s actually had knock sensors?

Also where have you been cubes, haven't seen you on here in years?

Cheers

IIRC Rb20/25 uses the same round type jack and rb26 ues a rectangular jack simlar to their inj plug

Did you burst the wire from the metal terminal? If so im sure it can come out of the housing(like almost all nissan jacks) and resolder.

If its the wire comeplete with the terminal that came out just get a new plug housing from the wreckers an swap it out

Yeah ripped the wire out of the metal terminal, but there is no way to pull the metal terminal out and solder a new wire on, its stuck in there.

So what else uses these knock sensors as I don't know of any wreckers with r32/r33s, might call an import shop and see if they have any lying around though.

I have never had cause to deal with the knk sensor jack but look carefully at the terminal, there is usually some little part or the terminal itself holding it in the housing

You should be able to get at it with a saftey pin or similar to pry it while pushing out the terminal same time

As i said, most of these jacks are designed this way, even the main ecu jack which allows you to swap around wires if needed.....I changed out all the jacks on my coil pack harness this way by using i think tps jacks from some GA15s

[Rolls]

ah sweet, it looked like a sealed piece due to the grease but there was a rubber bit in the end which comes out, not really sure how to get to the wire in there though, seems stuck.

Yeah it is not coming out any time soon, will try and get a replacement.

Can anyone confirm if the VL/R31 skylines do indeed have knock sensors?

31s definately dont. think VLTs do though
