Default Knock sensor help...Please!!!!

I've finally finished up my heads/cam/ECS D1 install and am working out some bugs before I take it to the tuner. I am constantly getting the 0327 and 0332 codes, which are the front and rear knock sensors. I removed them to inspect/clean the valley area and am now wondering if I overtightend them or something during the reassembly. Has anyone else experienced this problem before and what does it take to remedy it. TIA.

Jer.

I ran a scan on the way home from work today and when I get above 80% throttle, the knock sensors are pulling max timing. Also one of the techs at work said to only torque them to 15 lb. ft. and if they are too tight they become very sensitive. So now out to the garage to retorque them and see what happens. Jer.
