Got to love the easy fixes. I pulled my hair out trying to figure out what was wrong with mine until I borrowed the loaner scan tool that was floating around a while back. Mines a 90 and doesn't have a check engine light so all I could tell was that is was low on power without the scan tool.

The connector is easy to get to. See https://rennlist.com/forums/964-foru...orrection.html
After I had dropped my engine and replaced the clutch, I got the same error code. Removing and reconnecting the connector, cleared the fault.

It took a little effort to unplug the left knock sensor, as it's wedged under the heater blower and between the engine & fuse box, but I used a spare shoelace to pull off the retention wire and fished it back out from the engine tin with an extendable magnet.
Thanks.
