DESCRIPTION

A00YR7VE07

The exhaust gas temperature sensors are installed before and after the DPNR* catalyst to sense the exhaust gas temperature.

A thermistor built into the sensor changes its resistance value according to the exhaust gas temperature. The lower the exhaust gas temperature, the higher the thermistor resistance value. The higher the exhaust gas temperature, the lower the thermistor resistance value.

The exhaust gas temperature sensor is connected to the ECM. The 5 V power source voltage in the ECM is applied to the exhaust gas temperature sensor from terminal THCI (B1S1) and THCO (B1S2) via resistor R.

Resistor R and the exhaust gas temperature sensor are connected in series. When the resistance value of the exhaust gas temperature sensor changes in accordance with the exhaust gas temperature, the voltage at terminals THCI (B1S1) and THCO (B1S2) also changes. When PM forced regeneration is needed, the ECM operates the exhaust fuel addition injector to obtain target upstream temperature of the DPNR catalytic converter as monitored through sensor 1. In addition, the ECM monitors the temperature increase of the DPNR catalytic converter using sensor 2.

Tech Tips


  • DTC P1386 (Exhaust fuel addition injector malfunction) may be stored if there is an open malfunction in an exhaust gas temperature sensor circuit.

  • Sensor 1 the represents sensor located upstream in front of the DPNR catalytic converter.

  • Sensor 2 the represents sensor located downstream behind the DPNR catalytic converter.

  • After confirming DTC P0545, P0546, P2032, and/or P2033, check the upstream and downstream exhaust gas temperature in "Powertrain / Engine / Exhaust Temperature B1S1 and Exhaust Temperature B1S2" using the GTS.

Condition Exhaust Gas Temperature Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Condition
Idling after warm-up Constant at between 50 and 700°C (122 and 1292°F) Normal
0°C (32°F) Open circuit
1000°C (1832°F) Short circuit

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM constantly monitors the output voltages from the exhaust gas temperature sensors in order to detect problems with the sensors. When the sensor output voltage deviates from the normal operating range (between 0.2 V and 4.95 V) for more than 3 seconds after the engine is warmed up, the ECM interprets this as malfunction of the sensor circuit and illuminates the MIL.

After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (Click here ) and initialization Click here.

Tech Tips

If DTC P2033 is stored and the exhaust gas temperature sensor (B1S2) circuit is not malfunctioning, check if the DPNR catalytic converter has melted as DTC P2033 may be stored when the DPNR catalytic converter melts and the exhaust gas temperature sensor (B1S2) is exposed to high temperatures.

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING GTS (EXHAUST TEMPERATURE)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Exhaust Temperature B1S1 and Exhaust Temperature B1S2.

      Exhaust Temperature B1S2

    4. Read the value.

      Standard
      Same as the actual exhaust gas temperature (50 to 700°C [122 to 1292°F] during idling after warm-up), and varies after an engine speed of 3000 rpm is maintained for 1 minute.
      Result
      Temperature Displayed Proceed to
      0°C (32°F) (After warming up the engine) A
      1000°C (1832°F) or higher B

      Tech Tips


      • If there is a short circuit, the GTS will indicate 0°C (32°F).

      • If there is an open circuit, the GTS will indicate 1000°C (1832°F) or higher.
