- Verify the integrity of entire DPF system by inspecting for the following conditions:
- Damaged components
- Loose or improper installation
- Leaks or restrictions in the exhaust differential pressure lines or hoses. The pressure lines should have a continuous downward gradient, without sharp bends, or kinks from the pressure sensor to the exhaust filter assembly.
- Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Particulate Filter Pressure Variance parameter. The value should be between -1.0 kPa to +0.3 kPa.
- Engine running at a warm stabilized idle, observe the scan tool Particulate Filter Pressure Variance parameter. The value should be between 0-3 kPa.
- Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
