Default Knock sensor harness


I need to replace the knock sensor harness on my 82' the clip broke that connects to the sensor. I've been looking and for some reason eBay keeps pulling up this. Is this a update to it or are they just leading me in the wrong direction?

the cooling fan and the knock sensor use the same connector. The Corvette vendors on this site sell the connector alone.

Hey Mel this is the original knock sensor for my 82. I can't find it for some reason. Terry which one did you change your too? Is it the one I posted early that looks like the fuel air sensor?

your original post you asked about the harness, now you are asking about the sensor, are you looking for both of them? Try finding a Echlin DKS205 sensor.

This is the harness I'm talking about I broke the tap inside and it won't connect to my knock sensor. So I'm trying to see what this one on eBay is? I know nothing about knock sensors.
