Changed the knock sensor 2 times now and the pigtail as well. It runs good for about 1 hour, then the light comes back on and the same code knock sensor #1. Bank 1 knock sensor.

Hi,

When you installed the sensors, did you torque them to specification? Also, could you provide me with the code you are getting so I can specifically check what may be the cause?

Let me know.
