Overview
CODE | REASON | EFFECT |
Fault Code: 6266 PID: SPN: 5862 FMI: 14/14 LAMP: Amber SRT: |
The aftertreatment SCR intermediate temperature sensor reading is irrational.
|
Possible reduced engine performance. |
Circuit Description
The aftertreatment exhaust gas temperature sensor module is a smart device that communicates with the engine control module via the J1939 data link. The aftertreatment exhaust gas temperature sensor module performs its own internal diagnostics and reports malfunctions back to the engine control module using the J1939 data link. The aftertreatment exhaust gas temperature sensor module is used to measure the aftertreatment diesel oxidation catalyst intake temperature, aftertreatment diesel particulate filter intake temperature, aftertreatment diesel particulate filter outlet temperature, and aftertreatment SCR outlet temperature. The temperature probes are permanently attached to the aftertreatment exhaust gas temperature sensor module and can not be replaced individually.
Component Location
The aftertreatment exhaust gas temperature sensor module is located on the aftertreatment catalyst.
Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic runs when the engine is running and exhaust flow is above a minimum level.
Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected the aftertreatment SCR intermediate temperature sensor signal was irrational for more than 5 minutes.
Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
- The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE lamp and/or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after the diagnostic fails on two consecutive trips.
- Engine torque will be reduced if the engine is operated for an extended period of time with this fault active.
Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
- This diagnostic can not be run in the shop environment.
- In order for this fault code to go inactive, a calibration download is necessary.
Shop Talk
Possible causes of this fault code include:
A malfunctioning aftertreatment diesel particulate filter outlet temperature sensor
