Symptoms

  • MIL or DPF warning illuminated
  • Possible reduced power or limp mode
  • Possible frequent regeneration attempts

Possible causes

  • DEF fluid
  • DPF system failure

  • Sensors

Recommended checks

  • Read soot load, ash load and differential pressure values
  • Check differential pressure sensor and hoses
  • Verify exhaust gas temperature sensor readings
  • Check for related injection, EGR or boost codes
  • Verify regeneration conditions can be met (trip profile)
