I am looking for some help on where I can obtain the knock sensor plug. Someone had cut the OEM plug off and now I need to replace the knock sensor but I would like to find the pig-tail female side so I can go back to original. Any ideas on where I could find a plug? I have one side of the plug (that comes with the new knock sensor) so I am looking for the other end. Help!

That’s probably part of the sled wiring harness u need. That might be tough to find without getting whole harness. Might have to cut sensor end and pick up your own weatherproof wiring connector and make your own.
Should be able to get weather right connectors from hardware store.

Are you sure that engine came with a knock sensor?
It could have it I just thought 2010 was the first year for the knock sensor

Sensor

So someone cut the sensor plug out of the main wire harness?
If so I wonder what was the reason for doing that?
Should be lots of wrecked/parted out sleds around that'll have that plug.
By the looks of the parts fiche that sensor was used on all of the 800cc and turbo 4 stroke sleds all the way back to 2002.

Sensor

I think the previous plug got wired too close to the pipe and melted. This is the only reason why I think someone would remove the plug. I have found the Chev Tracker knock sensor that is the same as Arctic Cat’s but for the life of me, I can’t find the other end of the plug to splice so I can go back to original.
