P06F3
P06F3-(DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID) REDUCTANT CONTROL MODULE INTERNAL TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.
Theory of Operation
The Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Dosing Control Unit is used to control the operation and monitoring of the Diesel Exhaust Fluid system. The after treatment Diesel Exhaust Fluid Dosing Control Unit is equipped with an internal temperature sensor, which monitors the temperature inside the control unit during operation. The DEF Dosing Control Unit shares this information with the Powertrain Control Module over the J1939 Data Link. Diesel exhaust fluid injection into the after treatment system is disabled.
- When Monitored:
This monitor runs during normal operation when dosing is being commanded by the DEF Dosing Control Unit.
- Set Condition:
The internal temperature of the DEF Dosing Control Unit is above 114°F [238°C] for more than five seconds.
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure.
