- If any of the DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .
- Verify the correct DPF is installed on the vehicle by performing the following:
- Record the DPF part number from the DPF shell.
- Observe the vehicle information system (VIS) RPO list for the RPO ZK3.
- The application of RPO ZK3 should match the application of the part number on the DPF shell, as listed below:
- With RPO ZK3, the last 3 digits on the DPF shell are 221.
- Without RPO ZK3, the last 3 digits on DPF should be 508.
- If the DPF shell part number does not match the RPO application, replace the DPF with the correct part.
- Engine running at a warm stabilized idle, observe the scan tool Particulate Filt. Pressure Variance parameter. The value should be between 0-3 kPa.
- Verify the following scan tool parameters:
- Engine Run Time Since Last DPF Regeneration parameter-The value should be less than 17.5 hours.
- Fuel Used Since Last DPF Regeneration parameter-The value should be less than 213 liters (57 gallons).
- Distance Since Last DPF Regeneration parameter-The value should be less than 804 kilometers (500 miles) at sea level, or less than 603 kilometers (375 miles) when equal to or above 10,000 feet altitude.
- If any of the parameters are greater than the specified range, perform a DPF Service Regeneration. Refer to Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) Service Regeneration .
- Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.
