    Need some help with a code 43

    1988 k2500 with a brand new gm goodwrench tbi 350 and 700r4. On the highway with cruise control on at 65 when it hits a small hill and downshifts from 4th to 3rd the cel will come on with a code 43 (knock sensor). I can get knock counts on tunerpro when i hit the exhaust manifold with a hammer. When im out driving i dont see any knock counts. Not even when starting it up. Also the connection i have between the ecm and tunerpro is pretty crappy. When you are sitting at a red light just idling in gear it shows connection error but the second you hit the accelerator to take off the connection restores. Anyway i need help on what to try next to get rid of this cel from turning on.

    So the knock sensor ohms out at 3.9k ohms and i am able to see knock counts in tuner pro when hitting the exhaust. Here is a data log that was taken when the light was cleared and when the light turned on. Is there any way to test the esc module?

    You have the wrong knock sensor. If it reads 3.9 k , that sensor is for the later PCM. If you have a 7747 the sensor should be approximately 100k. The 3.9k sensors were used on the 1993 up PCMs with red and blue connectors such as a 16197427.

    Your right. I put in a 100k knock sensor and the check engine light has not come on since. Thanks
