Knock Retard!!! after plug wire change

I'm getting a P0325 code, Ignition ESC failure. This happened after I change my wires. The first time I accidentally mixed some wires up. Got the fixed and the my check engine light comes on. I have double checked several times to make sure I got the wire routing right. I changed one of the coils and put the old spark plug wires back on. Check engine light still on. Could this be a sign of a bad ICM. I don't understand how this could have happened. Should have left it alone but My gas mileage has dropped and the wires has 58k on them so I wanted to change them because one didn't clip to the coil pack.

Ideas please. on wits in suppose to go on a trip this week. :runaround:

After you put the wires on correctly did you clear the code?

Problem solved. And yes I cleared the codes with my scan tool several times. I went to the dealership, no more patience or time on hand. It ended up being the rear knock sensor wire grounding to the transmission half shaft. The tech said I probably did it when I changed my power steering pump lines because the wire was in the wrong place period. It probably has been grounding for a while intermittently which may account for the gas mileage drop. When I changed the plug wires I somehow made the wire have permanent contact with the transmission. I need to pay more attention to detail.:shakehead

Side note, The tech thought that my wires were new and said that my car ran real smooth. I told them the were old and he said not to change them at all. I have duralast wires on them that I put on when I first got the car and they have almost 60,000 miles on them and only cost $19. Just putting in a good word for autozone parts, even though I belive in quality over price when it comes to cars. They are excellent for the price.

You know you can check the resistance of the wires to see if they are still good. The core deteriorates with time and this will give a higher resistance, which in turn gives a weaker spark and lower fuel efficiency.

Actually I did check the resistance of my wires and they were all in the 6-7k ohm range except for the one with the bad clip in the inside I couldn't get a reading on it.
