What U068D means

U068D
Lost Communication With EGR Temperature Sensor A Generic · emissions Data confidence 65%

The control module stopped receiving expected network messages from the EGR Temperature Sensor A node on the vehicle communication bus.

Symptoms

  • MIL illuminated
  • Possible reduced engine performance
  • Possible rough idle or hesitation

Possible causes

  • Carbon-blocked EGR passages
  • Sticking or slow EGR valve
  • EGR actuator or position sensor fault
  • Wiring or connector fault
  • Vacuum supply fault (vacuum-operated systems)

Recommended checks

  • Read freeze frame data and full module scan
  • Check battery voltage and sensor supply
  • Inspect EGR wiring and connectors
  • Compare commanded vs actual EGR position/flow with live data
  • Inspect EGR valve and passages for carbon build-up
  • Check related vacuum lines where fitted

Frequently asked questions about U068D

What does U068D mean?

Lost Communication With EGR Temperature Sensor A. The control module stopped receiving expected network messages from the EGR Temperature Sensor A node on the vehicle communication bus.

Is U068D generic or manufacturer-specific?

U068D is a generic OBD-II code: it has the same meaning on every make and model that follows the SAE standard.

Can TuningBot remove U068D at file level?

Not guaranteed. Powertrain (P) codes can be reliably disabled in the ECU calibration, but body, chassis and network codes depend on the specific control unit and how the fault is implemented - some can be handled, some cannot. Ask for a quote and our engineers will check your file and tell you, free of charge, whether U068D is removable in your case.
