So I am fairly comfortable working on my own cars. The knock sensor shouldn't be to hard to replace, well I am hoping not at least. Take my time and don't pull on any wires. Replace the intake gaskets if needed, and pray the old knock sensors are not froze in place.
The other problem is the airbag light. I have 2 possibility's as to what the problem could be.
1) Front sensor, the reason I feel as it could be this is the is some damage to the front of the vehicle front driver side. looks like someone was off roading and had some fun.
NOW IF I KNEW OF A WAY TO TEST ONE OF THOSE SENSOR
2)Clock Spring The dreaded clock spring. now here is why I feel it could be this. My radio controls on the steering wheel don't work. My DIC buttons work if it is light out side, they don't work if the automatic headlights are on. "There will be a new topic about that someday" Although my horn works.
So I don't know.
Also lastly when I get out of the truck there is a strong gas smell around the truck. Ive looked under to see if it is leaking any fuel, but it isn't. I opened the fuel door and smelled in there and it was strong there. So I wonder if I need a new fuel cap maybe. I know gas evaporates pretty quickly. \\
