12 manufacturer-specific interpretations across 7 manufacturers in the TuningBot DTC database.
The control module judged the Engine coolant temperature (ECT) signal implausible when compared with other operating data. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Dodge.
The control module detected that the signal in the Air Conditioning Pressure circuit stayed above the expected operating range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Ford.
The control module detected that the AJC refrigerant pressure signal stayed below the expected range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Land Rover.
The control module detected a fault associated with the AIC refrigerant pressure sensor - high voltage circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Mazda.
The control module detected that the Heated Catalyst Gate Voltage signal stayed below the expected range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by MINI.
The control module detected an internal control-unit fault (Difference between the stops programmed at long-term). Documented for the Bosch EDC16C34 injection ECU (DV6TED4 1.6 HDi) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.
The control module detected an internal control-unit fault (EGR valve programming; Discrepancy in the programming of the bottom stop (Valve closed)). Documented for the Continental SID 807 injection ECU (DV6C 1.6 HDi) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.
The control module detected an internal control-unit fault (Programming of the electric EGR valve; Discrepancy in the programming of the bottom stop (Valve closed)). Documented for the Delphi DCM 3.5 injection ECU (DW10C 2.0 HDi) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.
The control module detected that the EGR valve initialisation is jammed or locked. Documented for the Magneti Marelli MM6KP engine ECU (EW7A/EW10A) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.
The control module detected an internal control-unit fault (Difference between the stops programmed at long-term). Documented for the Siemens SID 803 injection ECU (DW10BTED4 2.0 HDi) on Peugeot applications; the same PSA control units are also fitted to Citroën models.
The control module judged the Exhaust gas recirculation temperature (EGRT) control, Bank 1 behaviour implausible for the current operating conditions. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Audi.
The control module judged the Exhaust gas recirculation temperature (EGRT) control behaviour implausible for the current operating conditions. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Volkswagen.
Powertrain: engine, transmission and driveline systems.
Manufacturer-defined range: the meaning can differ between brands.
Specific fault index within the subsystem.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (12 interpretations). The control module judged the Engine coolant temperature (ECT) signal implausible when compared with other operating data. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Dodge.
P1461 is a manufacturer-specific code. In this database it is documented for: Dodge, Ford, Land Rover, Mazda, MINI, PSA, VAG. The same number can mean something different on other brands.
If the fault logic lives in the ECU calibration, yes: our DTC Removal file service disables the specific fault entry and, where the ECU needs it, corrects the checksum too. Not sure whether your case qualifies? Request a free assessment and our engineers will check your ECU file.
