OBD-II Trouble Code Description for P0327 Hyundai
Knock Sensor 1 Circuit Low
What does this mean?
OBD2 Code P0327 Hyundai definition:
A knock sensor tells the engine computer when one or more of your engine’s cylinders are “knocking”, that is, exploding the air/fuel mixture in a way that delivers less power and can be damaging to the engine if prolonged. The computer uses this information to tune the engine so that it doesn’t knock. If your knock sensor on Bank #1 is generating a low output voltage (perhaps under 0.5V), then it will trigger a P0327 Hyundai DTC. This P0327 Hyundai code may show up intermittently or the Service Engine light may be lit constantly. Other knock sensor related DTC codes include P0325 Hyundai, P0326 Hyundai, P0328 Hyundai, P0329 Hyundai, P0330 Hyundai, P0331 Hyundai, P0332 Hyundai, P0333 Hyundai, and P0334 Hyundai.
