Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
As reductant will freeze at temperatures below -11°C (12°F), there are 2 reductant heaters. Reductant heater 1 is integral to the Emission Reduction Fluid Supply Pump Module, located in the reductant tank. Reductant heater 2 is located in the supply line to the reductant injector. The ECM monitors the reductant temperature in the tank in order to determine if the fluid is below its freeze point. If the ECM determines that the reductant may be frozen, it activates a "defrost strategy", by energizing the reductant heaters. The heaters are deactivated when the fluid temperature exceeds a calibrated value.
