| P2453 | Diesel Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance |
DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P2454.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P2453 | Diesel Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance | The difference between the differential pressure sensor output value and the ambient pressure sensor output value is more than 60 mbar (6 kPa) for 0.05 seconds. (3 trip detection logic) |

| P2453 | Filtered Pressure Value at Particle Filter Upstream |
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
When replacing the ECM, the ECM needs registration and initialization.
After replacing the differential pressure sensor, the ECM needs initialization.
Tech Tips
When the ECM must be replaced, before replacing the ECM, perform the "Learning Values Save" function using the GTS. Then after installing the new ECM, perform all of the initialization/registrations for the "Learning Values Write" function by following the instructions shown on the GTS display.
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
READ VALUE USING GTS
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / Atmosphere Pressure and Filtered Pressure Value at Particle Filter Upstream.
| Tester Display |

| Atmosphere Pressure |
| Filtered Pressure Value at Particle Filter Upstream |
Read the value.
| OK |
|---|
| Difference between the Atmosphere Pressure and the Filtered Pressure Value at Particle Filter Upstream is less than 8 kPa. |

CHECK DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR AIR HOSE CONNECTION
Check if the exhaust pipe air hose routing between the differential pressure sensor and the vacuum transmitting pipe is correct.
Check that there is no exhaust gas leak between the differential pressure sensor and the vacuum transmitting pipe.
| OK |

CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P2453)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs.
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 60 seconds or more [A].
Perform road test [B].
Repeat [A] and [B] for the number of trips detected.
