2.7L knock sensor connection

Hello,

I have an Australian 2005 Hilux ute 2.7 litre petrol model TGN16R.

The 2 connectors on the wiring loom at the back of the engine that accept the signal cables from the water temperature sensor and the knock sensor have torn-off the wiring loom. I don't know which of the 2 different points in the loom to connect those 2 sensors.

Can someone please tell me the EXACT POINT in the engine wiring loom to connect the knock sensor and the water temperature sensor? (a photo would be great).

Also, I only have 2 bare wires at each of the 2 locations in the engine wiring loom (because their connectors got torn-off). The colour of the wires does not correlate to my sensor wires. Thus, for each sensor I have 2 choices in connecting them to the bare wires sticking out of the wiring loom. Can I cook the computer if I get the polarity of the wires wrong when I connect them to the loom?

Thanks, JoMo
