Could someone just verify something for me please. My OTC4000 has been showing me up to 10 degrees of kr while the recently installed Caspers knock gauge shows zilch. I sent the gauge back because after testing it, I assumed the gauge was bad. A new one was sent to me. I hooked the new gauge up, & I've got the same problem. I spent today making sure I had run the wires correctly & such. I have power to the gauge via the green power light comes on with the key on. I touched the power wire connection & the sender connection (yellow/black stripe) with a safety clip like instructed to test the gauge. Key was on. I even tried it with the car running at idle. The gauge lights should light up while doing this. Still nothing. I checked my connection at the ecm, & it is correct. Now, seeing how my OTC is hooked up to the diagnostic connection under the dash & my gauge is ran straight to the knock sensor signal wire (yellow/black stripe), is there ANY way my OTC can be detecting this much knock & the gauge detects none? Can the gauge somehow differentiate between REAL knock & False knock. I tested the gauge how Caspers instructed. I would really appreciate some help on this. Thanks.
