did you try replacing or disconnecting the brown plug then? what happens when you take plug out? if nothing = duff sensor, if still works fine but doesn't when running and they should kick in, i'd look at the bitron unit
knocking .. could be anything. i'm sure someone said on here about the pros / cons of beam alterations and knocking was one when changing the bars - assuming that's your spec.
failing that might be solid beam mount snapped stud, i have this - twice - had to reweld the BBM ones up twice
Mine runs the latest update and never had a stalling issues since the SC 2 years ago, just started to have a funny idle.
I have replaced the brown sensor from another car that had no issues, not changed anything, still the same issue. When unplugging the brown sensor, fans seem to run constant, but still gets to higher temps than before (when fans were running as they should)
I know the knocking could be anything, and could be down to the bigger bars. Seems to be more from passenger side, and I keep thinking exhaust as that now sits slightly higher than before (now knocks against gear linkage too)
