P2CEC
Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor D Circuit Low
What it means
P2CEC means Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor D Circuit Low.
Where it lives
For P2CEC, the sensor sits on the circuit this code reports. The description of P2CEC reports a fault at the sensor.
Check these first
- A failing particulate filter pressure sensor D giving a low signal
- A clogged or blocked pressure port or hose at sensor D
- Corrosion or damage in the sensor D wiring or connector
- A short to ground on the sensor D signal circuit
- Loss of reference voltage or ground at sensor D
What to do next
- Check reference voltage and ground at particulate filter pressure sensor D
- Inspect the sensor D pressure port and hoses for soot or blockage
- Test the sensor D signal circuit for a short to ground
- Read particulate filter pressure data with a scan tool and compare it to sensor A
- Replace particulate filter pressure sensor D if the signal stays low
- Clear the code and retest
