I've been having the same problem. My car throws a code 43 (ESC) and it wants to die. I've replaced the knock sensor and the ignition modual, no change. I don't get it?

Sorry I couldn't help. But I also need some help w/ this.

Take a look here, you'll be able to find the ESC:

Actually i'm looking for a rebuilt or worked on esc. it's a special kind i saw on the internet once and now cant find it anymore. my enigne is kinda noisy so the knock module slows the timimg down to quiet it. but this new esc is special made to replace the knock module to where it wont back the timing of no matter how loud it is. that is the peice i am looking for so if you know where i might be able to look and search for this advanced part please post or email me at jacobgta@hotmail.com. Thanks
