How screwed am I?

Dealing with the 'rat chewed my knock sensor' story that everyone has on here... I kept throwing a code with the 3rd party harness... so I bought an OEM harness and as I went to plug it in (tried to shortcut it with the lifting of the manifold), I realized I had loose cables in the harness from the loom... omfg.

Trying to trace this down... i'm kind of at a loss.

 

Well, this sucks...no way around it...you need new pins and some patience...you're very capable of knocking this out, but I'd walk away for a bit, come back after some rest and see if you're able to depin and reuse them...

 

That sucks, they make a molex connection tool and pin kit, and similar if you want to try and reconnect the pins, or you could go wire by wire and just use butt connectors or male and female spade connectors if you want to be able to easily take it apart again, and just skip the plugs, just label the wires so you know what’s what in the future

 

This is time consuming but in no way impossible. Get a pin removal tool or use a needle. Unhook the battery, depin the plug, add a little
More to each connection and add new pins. Then plug those pins into the factory connector. You can get the pin kits on Amazon for 20 bucks or so.

 

Not a hard fix. You can get new pins from the dealer and just solder them on.
