Default 2006 STR knock sensor AJ89189

Since im in here replacing hoses and dont want to go back in for a whike, im going to replace the knock sensors.

But im confused. I believe the correct part number is AJ89189. But a lot of the parts Places show show it as one knock sensor while others show it as a double.

Anyone know if theres two sensors with a single connector or do I need to order 2?

And therein lies my problem.

Some places show the drawing Norri shows which is a single sensor

but others show the two sensors together.

I just ordered the one with 2 hoping thats what I need. Without the car in front of me im guessing both sensors go to a single conndctor since you can kind of see it in my photos.

Based on your photos looks like your only needing one ?

Thats the conclusion I came up with too! Since these parts are all “special order. No Return” I will wait to see what I get.

Random info... in Ford tuning the tune ignores knock above 4k rpms and at part throttle. Full throttle it also ignored knock. I have no idea what Jag does in their tune.
