Knock Sensor - Code #22

I've been fighting an issue of a rough idle after warm up. I jumped the ECU and it told me that it was the driver side O2 sensor. I replaced it and reset the ECU. When I test drove the car the idle was still rough (less so than before, admittedly) and it threw another CEL during the test drive. I jumped it again and now its reading fault code 22, which according to the manual is "knock sensor or circuit". First of all, what does this mean? Which knock sensor is it? Driver side or passenger side?

So, I assume I have to replace the knock sensors. I searched on the boards and I could not find a "step by step". I don't even know where these sensors are, I do know that I will most likely have to pull the intake plenium and alternator.

Does anyone have anything or know some resource that I can use to replace these sensors? Otherwise its $600 at the dealer with a Subie mechanic that is vaguely familiar with the SVX

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Humblest Regards,

Yoshi
