5/31/22, 1:53 PM Article Aftertreatment Hydrocarbon Injector (AHI) Troubleshooting Guide - US10+OBD13 And Newer Emissions System Overview The Aftertreatment Hydrocarbon Injector (AHI) System is a component of the Emissions Aftertreatment System (EATS) that monitors and controls fuel injection into the Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) to regenerate the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). The system is made up of 3 primary components: The AHI Module, Fuel and Air Lines, and the AHI Nozzle (7th Injector). AHI Module Component Overview The AHI Module for model year 2017 and newer trucks is mounted to the fuel filter housing. In older vehicles, it was mounted to the side of the engine block. Despite the different configuration, the functionality is the same and the module's primary job is to control the amount of fuel and air to the nozzle. There are 3 primary failure modes of the AHI Module (Dosing Block): Contaminated Air Supply Contaminated Fuel Supply Electrical Circuit Fault Any AHI Module failure from air or fuel is primarily due to system contamination. The AHI module is susceptible to debris and oil from the upstream systems. It is imperative that when replacing the AHI Module that the fuel and air system are adequately evaluated. Diagnosis and Repair • Perform a DTC Readout using Premium Tech Tool. Use the below fault tables to aid in diagnosing AHI system and the root cause of the failure. ; Live UI - ONLY Active codes or codes with DTC Status showing as "Confirmed" should be diagnosed. - If there are no Active or Status Confirmed DTCs and the vehicle https://volvo-trkna-prod1.pegacloud.net/prweb/PRAuth/app/VolvoKM_/iNPUIKpeinqPJi2G0hH930k43USdE1gb*/!TABTHREAD5?pyActivity=%40basec… 1/9 5/31/22, 1:53 PM Article will not successfully complete a regen, proceed to the AHI Nozzle Evaluation section.

If the AHI Module is suspected to have failed with no codes present, an eService case is required for further evaluation. In addition, if the AHI module is being replaced. Maintenance records will be required showing the fuel filters and air dryer/filter have been properly maintained and are not the root cause of the failure. The Air dryer / filters and Fuel Filters are all consumables. These components will be denied on a warranty claim unless they have been properly maintained. Refer to Service At a Glance (SAG) found in the Trucks Dealer Portal under the Information tab - Service - Service literature for replacement guides. Standard Diagnostic Time for AHI Module is 1.5 hours. AHI Nozzle Component Overview The AHI Nozzle (also called the 7th injector) is mounted on the diffuser located directly on the outlet of the turbocharger turbine housing. The 7th injector atomizes fuel going into the exhaust stream. Some versions of the nozzle also regulate the amount of fuel being injected. UI ; Live The primary failure mode of the AHI Nozzle is a clogged/plugged nozzle tip A complaint of failed regens or constant request of regen is a https://volvo-trkna-prod1.pegacloud.net/prweb/PRAuth/app/VolvoKM_/iNPUIKpeinqPJi2G0hH930k43USdE1gb*/!TABTHREAD5?pyActivity=%40basec… 4/9 5/31/22, 1:53 PM Article tip. A complaint of failed regens or constant request of regen is a common associated complaint. If the AHI Nozzle is clogged, it will either not inject a sufficient amount of fuel into the exhaust, or it will not properly atomize the fuel to distribute it evenly throughout the DOC. Both of these conditions will not produce the required temperatures for a successful regen. There have been a few different Types of AHI Nozzle over the past several years. Use the table below as a guide along with Impact parts information to ensure the proper Nozzle is installed on the vehicle.

Diagnosis and Repair • Check the Adaptive Factor for the AHI system by using operation 254508-03-02 Exhaust Aftertreatment Diagnostics, Options C in Premium Tech Tool. - If the Adaptive Factor is higher than 1.2: ○ Replace the AHI Nozzle ○ Reset the Adaptive Factor using the option in PTT ○ Run a Service Regeneration. Ensure that the temperature graph looks similar to the one in the image below. - If the Adaptive Factor is lower that 1.2: ○ The AHI nozzle is NOT the likely cause of the failed regeneration. Symptom Based Diagnostics in PTT should be followed from this point. ; Live UI https://volvo-trkna-prod1.pegacloud.net/prweb/PRAuth/app/VolvoKM_/iNPUIKpeinqPJi2G0hH930k43USdE1gb*/!TABTHREAD5?pyActivity=%40basec… 6/9 5/31/22, 1:53 PM Article Rules for Replacement The AHI Nozzle is a maintenance item that requires replacement at 150K Miles/4500 hrs in accordance with SAG documentation. The AHI Nozzle will be denied on a warranty claim unless proof of proper maintenance is provided. Standard Diagnostic Time for the AHI Nozzle is 1.4 hours Fuel and Air Lines Component Overview These lines run from the AHI Module to the Nozzle and are two-piece metal lines. With start of production 2017 these lines have a limited serviceability (3 times only) that are marked with plastic clips. The primary failure mode of these lines is leaking (fuel/air) at the points of connection. Because of the atomized fuel and air this leaking may not be easily noticeable. 2017 VGT Engine 2017 TC Engine Diagnosis and Repair These lines are only to be tightened 3 times before they require replacement. This applies to both connection points of the ; Live linesUI(AHI Module and AHI Nozzle). When new, two plastic C-clips are installed on each of the lines. Each time a line is removed and rehttps://volvo-trkna-prod1.pegacloud.net/prweb/PRAuth/app/VolvoKM_/iNPUIKpeinqPJi2G0hH930k43USdE1gb*/!TABTHREAD5?pyActivity=%40basec… 7/9 5/31/22, 1:53 PM sta ed o eac o t e es ac t ea Article e s e o ed a d e tightened, one of the plastic clips is to be removed. When there are no clips left on the line it should be replaced with a new one. Lines are to be torqued in accordance with the table below. NOTE: It is extremely important to follow proper torque to reduce premature line failure.
