Default What color are the knock sensor wires?

I need to know what color the wires are, and where to find them. I thought they were light brown, but i found 4 light brown wires.

Thanks for any help, i need to know ASAP.

You're looking for the harness coming out under the intake manifold.

Are they blue? not sure from the pic. And why are they trying to find them?

Are you going to figure out how to make a knock gauge for our trucks?

Thinks, thats just what i was looking for. I am thinking about looking into making a KR gauge. The sensors put out 0VDC with no knock, and as much as 5VDC with max knock. You could use resistors to bump down the total voltage off the knock sensors, and use something like a cheap A/F meter to show the voltage. You can take off the face plate and make your own to show a KR scale, from 0-15* of retard. I think with some research and logging it could work pretty well.

I think most forced induction and N2O guys would rather see knock in real time rather than on a data log, after they have blown there motor.
