Knock Sensor Issues
Looking for some expertise on a knock sensor issue (code P0327) on a 2011 6.0L 2500 Express. I replaced both sensors. The code went away and 3days later it's back on. I've checked the wiring and didn't see any problems.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what else i need to be looking for?
Thanks

P0327 is low signal
knock sensor needs a solid ground.
the signal needs to reach the PCM. Test by probing.
If those conditions are met and you still get the code, then the PCM may be damaged.

Thank you mountainmanjoe
i will do a grounding check. Is there a way to check the PCM ? Is the PCM and ECM one of the same or are they different?

ECM = Engine Control Module
PCM = Powertrain Control Module = ECM + integrated transmission controller
If the the knock signal looks good when probed at the PCM and you still get the code, then PCM is bad.
Make sure your battery + alternator are in good shape and the engine ground strap too.
