Tip:

If the DPF catalytic converter has melted or is removed due to a modification, the ECM interprets this as an abnormal pressure difference and DTC P244A will be stored and the MIL will be illuminated.

Tip:
  • DTC P2454 (Differential pressure sensor circuit low) and/or DTC P2455 (Differential pressure sensor high) will be present if there is an open or short in the differential pressure sensor circuit.

  • This DTC may also be stored due to the fail-safe operation of other DTCs.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note:

When replacing the ECM and/or DPF catalyst, perform ECM Initialization and Registration.

Tip:
  • When the ECM must be replaced, before replacing the ECM, perform the "Learning Values Save" function using the GTS. Then after installing a new ECM, perform all of the initialization and registration procedures for the "Learning Values Write" function by following the instructions shown on the GTS display.

  • Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

  • Check the DPF Differential Pressure using the GTS by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / DPF Differential Pressure.

    Table 2. DPF Differential Pressure (Reference Value)
    Condition DPF Differential Pressure
    Idling (warm up the engine) -0.204 kPa
    Running without load (2500 rpm) 0.296 kPa
    Running without load (4000 rpm) 0.699 kPa

PROCEDURE

  1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P244A)

    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

  2. CHECK CONNECTION OF VACUUM TRANSMITTING HOSE ASSEMBLY (DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR - VACUUM TRANSMITTING PIPE)

    ОСТОРОЖНО

    Be careful of being burned by exhaust gases during the following inspection.

    Note:
    • Confirm the paint marks on the vacuum transmitting hoses before disconnecting them.

    • Check that the vacuum transmitting hose connections are on the correct side of the DPF/DPNR catalytic converter.

    1. Disconnect both vacuum transmitting hoses (upstream and downstream) on the differential pressure sensor side.

      Standard
      Approximately the same pressure as the applied pressure is indicated.
      Tip:

      The DPF Differential Pressure displayed is a value that does not reflect the zero point adjustment. Therefore the displayed value will be about +/-0.3 kPa even if the applied differential pressure is 0 kPa.

    2. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 30 seconds or more (B).

    3. Repeat the above procedures (A) and (B) 3 times.

      Tip:

      Procedures (A) and (B) must be repeated 3 times to complete the differential pressure sensor learning process.

    5. Start the engine.

    6. Run the engine at 4500 rpm without load.

    7. Compare the value at 4500 rpm with the value when the ignition switch is first turned ON.

      Tip:

      When reading the values of Data List, confirm that PM regeneration is not activated (value of "After Injection Period" is 0) by entering the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / After Injection Period.

      If PM regeneration is activated (value of "After Injection Period" is not 0), drive the vehicle until the PM regeneration is complete (value of "After Injection Period" becomes 0).
