Knock Sensor Rewire quick question

[D.J.T.]

I'm in the process of the rewire & i have this question but none of the KS threads have the answer.. Probably a stupid question.

Ok in the the write up it says to SPLICE the coax cable conductor into the ks wire 5-6 inches away from the ECU.. Wouldn't it be better if i just cut the KS wire, strip the KS wire, & solder the coax cable conductor & the KS wire? I don't see the point of the Coax cable if the original cables are still connected to the ECU just for the hell of it.

That is probably what they meant. Cut the wire completely and run your new wire.

Will do, thank you.
