Theory of Operation
The Diesel particulate filter is an inline canister filter located in the exhaust system between the engine and the
muffler. This filter captures and stores ash particles created by the diesel combustion process. This filter is moni-
tored by the ECM with a Differential Pressure Sensor. This sensor measures the difference in exhaust system pres-
sure before and after the particulate filter through tube connections directly to the exhaust pipe. As ash accumulates
in the filter, the exhaust pressure at the inlet side of the filter increases as compared to the pressure at the outlet
side of the filter. The ECM monitors the sensor to determine when to perform a particulate filter regeneration pro-
cedure which is designed to clear or “burn-off” the ash collected in the filter.
•
When Monitored:
With the engine running.
•
Set Condition:
The ECM detects excessive pressure at the particulate filter.
Possible Causes
DAMAGED EXHAUST SYSTEM
LEAKING EXHAUST SYSTEM
HIGH RESISTANCE IN EXHAUST DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUITS
HOSE/TUBE CONNECTIONS TO THE EXHAUST DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR

Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)
Diagnostic Test
1.
VISUAL INSPECTION
Turn the ignition off.
Visually inspect the Exhaust Differential Pressure Sensor for physical damage, proper electrical connection and
proper mechanical connection. Ensure any tubes and/or hoses connected to the sensor are in good working con-
dition and properly connected at all ends.
Visually inspect the entire exhaust system for bent, crushed or otherwise damaged tubes which may cause an
exhaust system restriction.
Inspect the exhaust system for exhaust leaks.
Were any problems found?
Yes
>> Repair or replace as necessary.
No
>> Go To 2
2.
PARTICULATE FILTER REGENERATION
Start and idle the engine.
With the scan tool, Clear DTCs in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
With the scan tool, perform the Diesel Particulate Filter Regeneration procedure.
After this procedure is complete, turn the ignition off for 60 seconds.
Test drive the vehicle.
With the scan tool, Read DTCs in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Is the status Active for this DTC?
Yes
>> Go To 3
No
>> Test complete.

3.
EXHAUST DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH RESISTANCE
Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Exhaust Differential Pressure Sensor harness connector.
Disconnect the ECM harness connectors.
Measure the resistance of each Exhaust Differential Pressure Sensor
circuit between the Exhaust Differential Pressure Sensor harness con-
nector and the ECM harness connector.
Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms for each circuit?
Yes
>> Go To 4
No
>> Repair the circuit(s) that measured above 10.0 ohms for
high resistance. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND
TESTING)
4.
EXHAUST DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR
Turn the ignition off.
Replace the Exhaust Differential Pressure Sensor.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, Clear DTCs in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Test drive the vehicle
With the scan tool, Read DTCs in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Is the status Active for this DTC?
Yes
>> Replace the Diesel Particulate Filter.
No
>> Test Complete.
