ok so the ka24e doesnt have a stock knock sensor. i got a ka24DE sensor and im gonna bolt it up to my block on one of the air conditioner bracket bolts. but thats not my problem.

i dont wanna spend 120 on a knock lite and i just realized that my afc neo reads knock. how should i hook up the knock sensor to the neo>? im not sure like if it needs power from somewhere special or if it needs to ground through the neo or what....

help

It uses the stock sensor so if you dont have a stockie, youre safc wont read knocks...

well the thing is the afc would read the knock form your ecu, but your ecu doesnt have knock readings since your motor doesnt have a stock knock sensor.

ok so the afc neo cannot translate the knock sensor reading on its own, making this whole idea a NO-GO. that sucks. thanks for the help
