4.2.163. SPN 4360, FMI 2, SCR catalyst inlet gas temp sensor value implausibleΒΆ

Description

EEM4 monitoring system has detected implausible exhaust gas temperature sensor value. Sensor value is evaluated during current driving cycle and plausibility test result is failure.

Possible causes are:

  • The inlet exhaust gas temperature sensor is defective
  • The inlet exhaust gas temperature is installed incorrectly

Reaction in EEM

The FC is stored and the warning lamp is activated. The CAN message indicates active fault.

NOTE: The present fault is classified as an emission related fault. Engine power will be reduced after a certain time defined by an authority.

Solution

First save the error log and then erase it. Restart the ECU after erasing the error log. If the fault occurs again during the next driving cycle, check the following paths:

  • Check the inlet exhaust gas temperature sensor assembly. Make sure the sensor is assembled according to ASP installation instructions.(see Engine sensors overview)
  • Check the operation with another exhaust gas temperature sensor to see if the sensor is defective. (see Exhaust gas temperature sensor)
  • A possible tuning chip may interfere with the exhaust gas temperature signal.
