Why do you still get a bad code for the knock sensor after you put a new knock sensor on your 1999 mercury villager but still get a bad code from the computer?
Because there is nothing wrong with it. This is a common code that can relate to a number of components. The knock sensor itself is rarely the problem.

How do you fix the knock sensor problem on a 1992 Nissan 300ZX or should you bypass it and how?
The Nissan gurus put the knock sensor on the car for a reason. Unfortunately it uses the engine block for the ground and only one wire of the two in the harness is live. The knock sensor is not the easiest piece of equipment to get to so many people either live with the knock sensor being bad or bypass it. Once you get to the sensor, you can clean the engine block and the bottom of the sensor and reinstall. That cures the problem in many cases. The most effective safe way to fix the knock sensor is to replace it. If you want to take your chances you can research knock sensor bypass in your favorite search engine. There are a lot of articles with step by step directions so I doubt the procedure needs to be repeated here.

Troubleshoot codes 12 43 for a 1988 Chevy Celebrity?
On your 1988 Celebrity code 12 means the computer is working properly. You should always get a code 12 whenever you check for codes. Code 43 has to do with the Electronic Spark Control, specifically the knock sensor. It doesn't necessarily mean the knock sensor has failed, it could be in the wiring To check the knock sensor measure it resistance. It should read between 3300 and 4500 ohms. If it does not it may mean the knock sensor has failed. One of our cars recently posted a code 43. When we checked it out it turned out the terminal had come off of the knock sensor. When it was put back on it cleared up the problem.

Have 1985 trains aim took 305 motorout put in 1969 350 four bolt main used all part off 1985 onto 350 but cant find where to put the knotsencer?
The '69 block won't have a place to put the knock sensor....since there were no computerized '69 blocks. I have heard that you can buy a freeze plug with the correct hole to install the knock sensor in. I've also heard of guys drilling and tapping the freeze plug they have. I haven't tried it myself. That will be about the only options that you have if you want to use the '69 block and the knock sensor. Good luck with your build.

Can you put a knock sensor on a 1979 Chevy 350 block?
YES. If you look at the passenger side of the engine block just in front of the starter you will see a small plug that is screwed into the side of the block. That is a coolant drain plug so you can get all the coolant out of the block. Remove it and screw the knock sensor in it's place.
