Code No. P1428: No. 3 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor (DPF Temperature) Circuit High Input




OPERATION



  • A power voltage of 5 V is applied to the No. 3 exhaust gas temperature sensor (DPF temperature) output terminal (terminal No. 1) from the engine-ECU (terminal No. 60).
  • The power voltage is earthed to the engine-ECU (terminal No. 84) from the No. 3 exhaust gas temperature sensor (DPF temperature) (terminal No. 2).

FUNCTION



  • The No. 3 exhaust gas temperature sensor (DPF temperature) converts the DPF temperature into a voltage and inputs the voltage signal to the engine-ECU.
  • Engine-ECU uses this voltage for DPF regeneration control.
  • The No. 3 exhaust gas temperature sensor (DPF temperature) is a kind of resistor, which has characteristics to reduce its resistance as the DPF temperature rises. Therefore, the sensor output voltage varies with the DPF temperature, and becomes lower as the DPF temperature rises.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT


Check Conditions
  • Battery positive voltage is 8 - 16 V.
  • 2 seconds later after the ignition switch has been in "ON" position or the engine has started up.
  • Vehicle speed is 20 km/h or higher.
Judgment Criterion
  • The No. 3 exhaust gas temperature sensor (DPF temperature) output voltage is 4.95 V or more.

FAIL-SAFE AND BACKUP FUNCTION



  • The throttle valve is opened (Electrical discontinuity).
  • The EGR control is stopped (fully closed).
  • The DPF regeneration is prohibited.
  • The AS&G control is prohibited.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Failed No. 3 exhaust gas temperature sensor (DPF temperature)
  • Open circuit or harness damage in No. 3 exhaust gas temperature sensor (DPF temperature) circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-ECU
