If you/your mechanic can't tell when something isn't hooked up...
quit.

anomili: You missing something from that pic? lol

52 is knock sensor, I had knock for a second because the ic water pump was not working and the ic was running hot plus timing has not been set yet because of its inability to idle

code 52 doesnt indicate engine knock. it indicates that there's a short in the knock sensor circuit. basically, either (you have an N/A block, so one knock sensor) your KS is fried, or the wiring is messed up. rewire the KS, and check the actual sensor for output voltage with a multimeter, clear the codes, and your code 52 will be gone.

once again: CODE 52 DOES NOT INDICATE ENGINE KNOCK!

Off topic, but do engine codes detect rod knock?

..because that would be nice.

I am going to say the TPS needs to be adjusted or replaced if needed... I agree on finding a new mechanic..

Jspec: I do not think so..(wrong frequency)

no. the ks's dont set a CEL for knock. the ECU, however, will retard timing, and enrichen fuel mixture.
