Testing Knock Control Circuit
D There are two BLACK wires “5” that have bullet
connectors. This circuit is reserved for future
options. On current models, the two BLACK
wires must be connected for the system to
function properly.
This lead, when connected to an engine ground (–),
locks the ignition control module into the “Base Tim-
ing” mode.
D The TAN/BLU wire “6” carries a signal from the
Audio Warning circuit to the ignition module.
