DESCRIPTION

HINT:
  1. For more information on the differential pressure sensor and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), refer to the following procedures (LandCruiser RM000000XSN04NX.html).
  2. If P2454 and/or P2455 is present, refer to the DTC chart for DPF system (LandCruiser RM000000XSN04NX.html).

The two sensing chambers of the differential pressure sensor are mounted to monitor the pressure before and after the DPF catalytic converter. The sensor itself is not located on the engine assembly in order to reduce the influence of vibration.
The ECM compares the exhaust gas pressure before and after the DPF catalytic converter by monitoring the pressure using the upstream and downstream sensing chambers of the differential pressure sensor. If the difference in pressure exceeds a predetermined level, the ECM judges that the catalytic converter is clogged with particulate matter (PM). When the ECM judges that a partially clogged condition exists, the ECM begins to perform PM forced regeneration.
When the output voltage of the sensor deviates from the normal operating range, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction of the sensor circuit, and sets DTC P2454 or P2455, and illuminates the MIL.

  1. DTC P2453 (Diesel Particulate Filter Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit Range / Performance) will be stored if there is incorrect vacuum hose routing to the differential pressure sensor assembly.
  2. After confirming DTC P2454 and P2455, check the differential pressure in the "Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List / DPF Differential Pressure" menu using the GTS.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

In order to detect abnormality in the differential pressure sensor, the ECM always monitors the output voltage from the sensor. When the sensor output voltage deviates from the normal operating range (between 0.4 V and 4.8 V) for more than 3 seconds, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction in the sensor circuit and illuminates the MIL.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (LandCruiser RM0000012XK0AUX.html) and initialization (LandCruiser RM000000TIN08HX.html).
HINT:
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.
