Temperature Sensor Troubleshooting Guide US10+OBD13 And Newer

Component Overview
The Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensors are utilized in the Exhaust
Aftertreatment System for temperature readings at specific locations in
different stages of the system. These are two-wire sensors
which corollate resistance to temperature. The sensors are commonly
referred to as T1, T2, T3 & T4 respective to their place in the exhaust
stream. T4 was added for OBD19 and newer emissions. These sensors
report to the Aftertreatment Control Module (ACM) and play an important
part in the EATS strategy and diagnostics.
The primary failure mode Temperature Sensors is internal failure.

Diagnosis and Repair
Perform a DTC Readout. Review the tables below to determine which
category the DTC currently being diagnosed falls under. Proceed
according to the directions for the appropriate section.
NOTE: Active Temperature Sensor DTCs will cause Regens to abort.

High Exhaust Temperature DTCs

Exhaust Gas Temperature Too High

Directions: The above DTCs commonly fault in correlation to an
upstream component failure that causes high temperature readings in the
EATS. If other system DTCs are present prioritize the system DTCs
first. If no other DTCs or upstream faults observed, proceed with the
directions below.

Ambient Temperature Evaluation - Using PTT 2589-08-03-02 Subtest
A, Select Soot Regeneration, DO NOT START THE ENGINE (this is a
manual condition that can be bypassed); rather use key on, engine off.
Before starting the regen using the drop down menu view temperature
sensors readings. When engine/exhaust is at ambient temperature, all
Temperature Sensors should read close (approx. within 10 Degree F) to
the same value.
