A case relean, or crank sensor angle relearn, needs to be done when ever the crank sensor is changed. Do to small variances in the manufacturing of the reluctor wheel and crank sensor, when either is changed, the ecm/pcm needs to be "taught" the way the new sensor sees the reluctor wheel. After...

And with the new to you motor, a case relearn wouldnt hurt.

Did you use the coil packs that came with the replacement motor, or your original coils? And I wouldnt start buying new sensors, you have a second set of everything on your original motor, including coil packs.

No problem, glad I could help. Another question for you. Was the motor you dropped in an LH6, the same as the the one you pulled out? And if so, what did it come out of? The reason I ask is that there are some differences between the LH6s in 06 depending on what they came out of.

Look on the passenger side of the power brake booster. Its the only thing plugged in there, sensor wise.

I really dont think your dod has anything to do with this, but you can check this by unplugging the brake booster pressure sending unit. With this unplugged, the ecm will not try to engage dod. You will have a check engine light and a brake light, but other then that, you will be able to rule...

Ok, so I know its been awile since my last post, but life sometimes does that to you. Update . . I solved the problem of the knock sensors by buying 2 10mm x 1.5 x 8mm step studs and bolted the 4th gen knock sensors to the side of the block using exsisting holes. As far as the missing, or...

I have found a bit of information going from 3rd gen to 4th gen, but none going the other way. And no, the motor I dropped in is not a 4th gen with dod, but a 3rd gen running on a e40 4th gen ecm. All issues have been cleared, but the deactivated cylinders(1, 4, 6, and 7). This is driving me...

Ok, so I solved the knock sensor issue, as well as an unplugged temperature sending unit. I also rewired the cam shaft sensor and took care of that issue. Now, the only codes its throwing are for deactivated cylinders 1, 4, 6, and 7. No other codes show, the reduced power light isnt even on. Im...

Thank you Mounce, I appreciate it. Im just hoping that I can figure this out, because truth be told, this is my daily driver. I only work 4 miles from home, but if I can help it, I would rather not take the chance. I was told by a few people that I should be able to wire these knock sensors up...

Hey all, long time lurker and first time poster here. I am needing assistance with a knock sensor issue, and I am hoping that someone here can help me out. I have a 2006 Buick Rainier that came with a 5.3 LH6 wi5h DOD. Well, the day after I bought her, she threw a rod. After some reasearch, I...
