2010 cobalt code po327 .have put on new sensor. light still comes on

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 DTC. This P0327 code may show up intermittently or the Service Engine light may be lit constantly. Other knock sensor related DTC codes include P0325, P0326, P0328, P0329, P0330, P0331, P0332, P0333, and P0334.

I am getting a po327 code for a knock seneor 1 circuit low input (bank1) on my gmc 2500hd would like to know where it is located and how to go about fixing it

It is located on the side bottom of the engine block and screwed into the water jacket, you must drain the block before you replace it. There are two sensors, bank one and bank two. Before you replace the sensor check the wire connector to it for corrosion and make sure that isn't the problem as it is in may cases.

1995 ford exploere check engine light is on/loss of power

P0327 - Knock Sensor Circuit Low Voltage
P0332 - Knock Sensor 2 Circuit Low Input (Bank 2)

Have you had the engine worked on? this looks like maybe the spark knock sensor is either disconnected or has been overtightened in the block, to check this locate the knock sensor at the base of the cylinder block just above where the oil pan bolts to the block, it is round (with a wire connector going to it) with a large hex nut configuration to pull it out, it is in the water jacket so if you do pull it drain the cooling system and the engine block, if you replace it DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN IT! tighten to suggested torque setting in factory service manual.
