If you get a code34 anyway..any harm in unplugging sub harness

[smelly240]

Code 34 cannot be thrown for the engine knocking.

Its for a malfunctioning sensor/bad wiring.

just thought you should know.

OKAY I FINALLY HAVE A BREAK THROUGH...SOMETHING to work with

Yeah I type in all caps..cause I'm excited I have pinpointed something definitely wrong.

Okay there's part of the wiring harness wrapped up in wire loom..bigger than the type used to wrap the wires near the front of the motor. It's past the last fuel injector closest to the fire wall. Prior to pinpointing this area, I went out side took the cover off my fuel pump to jiggle wires nothing.. jiggled sub harness to knock sensor...nothing. All I had to do was touch the part of the harness in the big loom mentioned above..and the car cut off INSTANTLY! It never fails..did it 3 times. The lighter u touch it..it almost dies but not quite. So I think this is why I hit a bump or anything that would cause it to move..I get that jerk. Had my dad to tap it while I watch the tach..sure enough the car almost dies..tach needle drops..and relay near ecu clicks.

I'm suppose to have a guy that's good at car electrical look at it thursday..but if it's left all on me, at least I got an area to work with. Don't know what's going on inside till I open..which I wouldn't want to anyway cause been off and on raining to day.

Try and find a pic under the hood off a ka s14..and circle the area in ms paint and post

And most of the time the sensors(knock) will throw a code if not tq'ed down properly as well. Hence why i'm just going to throw an ohm resistor on mine and call it a day.
