Any ideas where I can find some information on how to fix this 🙏🏼
Subtle but definite knock in the entire crank arms set through the bottom bracket

Tighten your bottom bracket.
Check Sheldon brown if you’re not sure how
I just got the same pedals, do you like them?
Bottom bracket
Your bottom bracket is shot. Replace it with a new one.
Looks like a threaded one, most likeley BSA.
It’s cheap to replace but requires some special tools.
Go to your LBS or invest in the tools.
If the bottom bracket is tight, the bearings in the bottom bracket are worn. It might be time for a new BB.
Sealed BB. Needs a replacement.
Either your bottom bracket isn’t screwed in tight enough or it is shot and needs replacing. You’ll need a crank puller and a bottom bracket tool (and probably a new bottom bracket) to fix it. The cost of the tools (don’t cheap out with aliexpress ones) is probably about the same as the labor cost of having a bike shop do it.
Those Gewage pedals (AliExpress) are no good, had mine blow up after only 100 miles of blue trails
