Knock sensor question........

I recently checked the codes and found that there is a problem with the knock sensor. I heard that may cause the timing to retard at high rpm. Should I replace the sensor or is there another option?

I have tried calling ATS and their phone is disconnected. I have also e-mailed them, but have yet to receive a response. Anybody know whats up, or maybe where I can order this conversion else where? Thanks.
