| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P24521C | Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit Voltage Out of Range |
DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P244B00.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P24521C | Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit Voltage Out of Range | Differential pressure sensor value at intake air flow of 52 gm/sec or higher is below 0 kPa for 5 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic). |
|
Does not come on | DTC stored | SAE: P2453 |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
When the differential pressure sensor output is output with the positive and negative values reversed, incorrect connection of the differential pressure sensor and vacuum transmitting hose assembly is judged and the ECM stores a DTC.
MONITOR STRATEGY
| Frequency of Operation | Continuous |
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on [A].
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Start the engine and warm it up until the engine coolant temperature reaches 75°C (167°F) or higher [B].
With the shift position in 2nd, drive the vehicle at 60 and 80 km/h (37 and 50 mph) for 10 seconds or more [C].
CAUTION:
When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [D].
Read the pending DTCs.
Tech Tips
If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P24521C.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL |
|
| ABNORMAL |
|
| INCOMPLETE |
|
Tech Tips
If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE, perform steps [C] and [D] again.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Tech Tips
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
Clear the Vehicle Control History after completing repairs.
PROCEDURE
CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P24521C)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
Read the DTCs.

Tech Tips
If any DTCs other than P24521C are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

CHECK BLOCKAGE OF VACUUM TRANSMITTING HOSE ASSEMBLY AND TRANSMITTING PIPE (DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR - VACUUM TRANSMITTING PIPE)
| *1 | Differential Pressure Sensor |
| *2 | Vacuum Transmitting Hose Assembly |
Check if vacuum transmitting hose assembly 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.

CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS (DTC P24521C)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs.
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Drive the vehicle in accordance with the driving pattern described in Confirmation Driving Pattern.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

REPLACE DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR
Replace the differential pressure sensor.
Start the engine and allow it to idle until the engine coolant temperature reaches 75°C (167°F) or higher (A).
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 30 seconds or more (B).
Repeat the above procedures (A) and (B) 3 times.
Tech Tips
Procedures (A) and (B) must be repeated 3 times to complete the differential pressure sensor learning process.
