I have one of the Fault Code checkers for the car (the popular one, Peak, I
think) and I'm getting an error code that is apparently a problem with the
rear (4-6) knock sensor which I have replaced but I'm still getting the
code. I have a couple questions;

Why the heck am I still getting the code? Do I have to reset something even
though the battery has been disconnected and reconnected?

Will this fault code cause it to automatically fail the emissions test
(Hou.,TX)? Could it possibly cause it to retard the ignition enough to cause
some problem?

Any help will be appreciated,
Chris

Maybe the sensor was ok, but the fault is in the wiring - bad connector-etc.

that's a possibility, wouldn't that suck! The connector felt very good when
the sensor clicked in though. And actually, the sensor itself looked really
bad. The plastic shielding around the body of the sensor was all cracked up
and such.

Any other ideas guys?
