DTC P0327 Knock/Combustion Vibration Sensor 1 Circuit Low Bank 1 Or Single Sensor: Notes

DTC DETECTING CONDITION: 

Immediately at fault recognition

TROUBLE SYMPTOM: 

• Poor driving performance
• Knocking occurs
  CAUTION:

  • After servicing or replacing faulty parts, perform Clear Memory Mode <Ref. to OPERATION , Clear Memory Mode.>, and Inspection Mode <Ref. to PROCEDURE , Inspection Mode.>.
  • Use the check board when measuring the ECM terminal voltage and resistance.

WIRING DIAGRAM: 

Engine Electrical System <Ref. to WIRING DIAGRAM , Engine Electrical System.>

Step	Check	Yes	No
1 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND KNOCK SENSOR CONNECTOR.  Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect the connector from ECM. Measure the resistance between ECM connectors. Connector & terminal  (E158) No. 14 - (E159) No. 27:	Is the resistance less than 500 kΩ?	Go to step 2  .	Go to step 3  .
2 CHECK KNOCK SENSOR.  Disconnect the connector from the knock sensor. Measure the resistance between knock sensor connectors. Terminals  No. 1 - No. 2:	Is the resistance less than 500 kΩ?	Replace the knock sensor. <Ref. to Knock Sensor .>	Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and knock sensor connector. NOTE: The harness between both connectors are shielded. Remove the shield and repair the short circuit of harness.
3 CHECK INPUT SIGNAL OF ECM.  Connect the ECM. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and engine ground. Connector & terminal  (E158) No. 14 (+) - Engine ground (-):	Is the voltage 2 V or more?	Even if DTC is detected, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Reproduce the failure, and then perform the diagnosis again. NOTE: In this case, temporary poor contact of connector, temporary open or short circuit of harness may be the cause.	Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and knock sensor connector. NOTE: The harness between both connectors are shielded. Remove the shield and repair the short circuit of harness.
