Anyone ever experienced this situation and have any recommendations?? Im at a loss as to what the hell is going on with this confusor crap any advise or recommendation would be most appreciated.

I agree with previous responses. Use GM knock sensors and harness. Although cheaper in price, Aftermarket stuff seems to never work. Also, I would recommend replace the intake valley cover gasket while youre there already. There is a GM bulletin that says to use engine sealant/silicone around the knock sensor to keep water out of the knock sensor.
