6/30/22, 12:27 PM Article Temperature Sensor Troubleshooting Guide US10+OBD13 And Newer Component Overview The Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensors are utilized in the Exhaust Aftertreatment System for temperature readings at specific locations in different stages of the system. These are two-wire sensors which corollate resistance to temperature. The sensors are commonly referred to as T1, T2, T3 & T4 respective to their place in the exhaust stream. T4 was added for OBD19 and newer emissions. These sensors report to the Aftertreatment Control Module (ACM) and play an important part in the EATS strategy and diagnostics. The primary failure mode Temperature Sensors is internal failure. Diagnosis and Repair Perform a DTC Readout. Review the tables below to determine which category the DTC currently being diagnosed falls under. Proceed according to the directions for the appropriate section. NOTE: Active Temperature Sensor DTCs will cause Regens to abort. High Exhaust Temperature DTCs DTC Description P1151-00 Aftertreatment System Over Temperature P2428-00 Exhaust Gas Temperature Too High Directions: The above DTCs commonly fault in correlation to an upstream component failure that causes high temperature readings in the EATS. If other system DTCs are present prioritize the system DTCs first. If no other DTCs or upstream faults observed, proceed with the directions below. Exhaust Temp Plausibility DTCs UI These codes should only be diagnosed if they are Active or have a ; Live Note: DTC Confirmed status of True. https://volvo-trkna-prod1.pegacloud.net/prweb/PRAuth/app/VolvoKM_/iNPUIKpeinqPJi2G0hH930k43USdE1gb*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40basec… 1/6 6/30/22, 12:27 PM Article DTC Description Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Circuit P246F-64 Range/Performance Bank 1 Sensor 4 NOTE: OBD19 & 20 Vehicle only, 1-Box SCR Follow TSB DEF Crystallization, dosing valve, clean.

T3 If no fault is found, ensure software is up to date on the Engine ECU (EMS), as some diagnostics improvements have been released. Ambient Temperature Evaluation - Using PTT 2589-08-03-02 Subtest A, Select Soot Regeneration, DO NOT START THE ENGINE (this is a manual condition that can be bypassed); rather use key on, engine off. Before starting the regen using the drop down menu view temperature sensors readings. When engine/exhaust is at ambient temperature, all Temperature Sensors should read close (approx. within 10 Degree F) to the same value. ; Live UI https://volvo-trkna-prod1.pegacloud.net/prweb/PRAuth/app/VolvoKM_/iNPUIKpeinqPJi2G0hH930k43USdE1gb*/!TABTHREAD2?pyActivity=%40basec… 2/6 6/30/22, 12:27 PM Article Heating Cycle Evaluation - Using PTT 2589-08-03-02 Subtest A, perform a Soot Regen. View/graph the temperature sensors. Make sure the values rise in the respective order shown in the graph below. Note: PTT will abort regen for active Temp Sensor DTCs, it may be necessary to clear DTC in order to perform the follow evaluation.
