knock sensor wire

ever since i have had my car it has had a pinging problem.
I got a new oxygen sensor and a new knock sensor but my question is i got under the car to change my knock senor and the the wire was already disconnected.Ok this might be the problem
so i change the sensor and i grabbed the wire to connect it and it come out in my hand!I thought oh ****i broke the wire but when i checked it it was a straight. Anyway how can i find out where this wire comes from or is there an easy way to connect it through somewhere else.
Any help would be GREATLY apreciated.



Jeff

can i just join the blue wire that connects to the knock sensor up to the blue wire on the ESC.Seems like the easiest way unless i am missing something
It is just a straight bit of wire between the knock sensor and the ESC is'nt it.
Thanks

The wire is straight run from the ESC
