Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor B Circuit

Where it lives

For P245E, the circuit described runs through the sensor. The description of P245E reports a fault at the sensor.

Check these first

• A failed particulate filter pressure sensor B
• An open or short in the sensor B circuit
• A backed out pin at the sensor B connector
• Chafed wiring along the sensor B harness
• A restricted DPF pressure hose feeding sensor B

What to do next

1. Read particulate filter pressure sensor B on a scan tool
2. Inspect the sensor B pressure hoses for cracks or soot blockage
3. Test the sensor B circuit for open and short faults
4. Check the sensor B connector pins and terminals
5. Replace the particulate filter pressure sensor B if it fails testing
6. Clear the code and retest
