2012 Hyundai Accent knock sensor troubleshooting

Asked by Guru9P8HPK Jun 30, 2022 at 07:20 PM about the 2012 Hyundai Accent GLS Sedan FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I had a knock sensor code turn on in my 2012 accent & then
it started to just shut off & die while driving. Could the dying
while driving be related to the knock sensor? Or is it
something else entirely?

Probably something related to fuel and or timing control. However a tired engine can also throw the code.
