So I finelly got a chance to work on my S today. It had a rigged up harness and plugs were smashed and what not so I got a new harness. I got it all apart but 4 tranny plugs last weekend so today I jacked the car up and unpluged them and got the old harness out..

Started to put the new one in got the ac alt and got to the starter and got a extra plug in I dont remember taking off.. I searched and searched and couldnt find the home for this plug, so I deside to look at my old harness just to make sure this plug was on mine and found out that I somehow broke the sensor off and took it with me taking out the harness

Need to know the sensor and were it goes so I can get another one to get my S back up and running.. Took pic's of the plug and the location of it on the harness to kind of help out

Tried doing a search but got alot of radio stuff no engine wiring

 

No clue. But next time use this:

 

Ok I took a peak under my hood and couldn't see anything similar. Maybe it can be seen from the underside. Do you have a copy of the service manual?

 

No I don't happen to have a copy, just got the car and new to the site

Thanks for going out and looking under your hood

 

where about is it on the harness? maybe if we knew what other connections or sensors are nearby that would help narrow it down.

 

That is a broken knock sensor

 

broken knock sensor

Thanks alot everyone

Deff the knock sensor. Those things are notorious for breaking. You can find them used on here for 50-75 bucks
