U1024 Suzuki Fronte Diagnostic Trouble Code

U1024 Suzuki Fronte code definition:
U1024 is a kind of OBD-II Diagnostic U-Network Diagnostic Trouble Code for Suzuki Fronte.

U1024 Suzuki Fronte is defined as Knock Sensor Circuit Range Performance (Bank 1 or Single Sensor). This refers to camshaft timing, which in this case is over-retarded.
