Troubleshooting Test Steps | Values | Results |
---|---|---|
1. Diagnostic Codes A. Download the Warranty Report and the Product Status Report with Histograms before performing any troubleshooting or clearing any diagnostic codes. Note: The downloaded information will be required by the Dealer Solutions Network (DSN) if troubleshooting assistance is needed. B. Use the electronic service tool to check for active or logged codes. |
Diagnostic codes |
Result: An associated code is active or logged. Repair: Troubleshoot associated codes before continuing with this procedure. Refer to Troubleshooting, Event Codes for further information. Result: A diagnostic code for the NRS valve is active or logged. Repair: Rectify the NRS valve code. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Motorized Valve - Test". Result: A 2659-7 (E1319 (2)) code is active with no ETI code active. Proceed to Test Step 2. Result: A 2659-7 (E1319 (2)) code is active with an ETI code of 1 active. Proceed to Test Step 7. |
2. Inspect the Electrical Connectors and the Harness A. Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position. B. Inspect the connectors for the components in the NRS system. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors - Inspect". C. Perform a D. Check that the ground connection on the ECM and the negative terminal on the battery are correctly installed. E. Check the ground connection on the ECM for abrasions and pinch points. F. Check the screws for the ECM connector for the correct torque of G. Check the harness for abrasion and pinch points from the NRS components to the ECM. H. Check that any suspect connector is installed correctly. |
Connectors and harness |
Result: An electrical connector or a cable is not correctly installed. Repair: Install the connector or cable correctly. Result: The harness is faulty. Repair: Install a replacement harness. Result: The harness and connectors are OK. Proceed to Test Step 3. |
3. Check the Air Inlet and Exhaust System A. Check the air inlet system for leaks and for restrictions. B. Check the exhaust system for leaks and for restrictions. C. Test the exhaust back pressure regulator. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Motorized Valve - Test". |
Air inlet and exhaust system |
Result: The air inlet system has a leak or is restricted. Repair: Clear any restrictions in the air inlet system. Repair any air leaks in the air inlet system. Result: The exhaust system has a leak or is restricted. Repair: Clear any restrictions in the exhaust system. Repair any air leaks in the exhaust system. If the fault is still present, proceed to Test Step 4. |
4. Check the NRS Inlet Pressure Sensor and Sensor Pipes Refer to Illustration 1. A. Check pipe (4) for the NRS inlet pressure sensor for leaks, restrictions, or blockage. B. Check pipe (3) for the NRS differential pressure sensor for leaks or any restriction. C. Test the exhaust back pressure regulator. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Motorized Valve - Test". |
Pressure sensor and pipes |
Result: There is a leak, a restriction, or a blockage in one of the sensor pipes. Repair: If a pipe has a leak or a restriction, replace the pipe. If a pipe is blocked with soot or condensates, remove the pipe. Clear the blockage with an air line that is set at a maximum pressure of Result: The NRS inlet pressure sensor is blocked. Repair: Replace the NRS inlet pressure sensor. Result: There are no leaks, restrictions, or blockages in the sensor or the pipes. Proceed to Test Step 5. |
5. Check the NRS Temperature Sensor Refer to Illustration 1. A. Remove temperature sensor (1) from NRS mixer (2). Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Temperature Sensor (Cooled Exhaust Gas) - Remove and Install". B. Check the sensor probe for excessive deposits. |
Temperature sensor |
Result: The probe on the temperature sensor has excessive deposits. Repair: Carefully remove the deposits from the sensor probe. Make sure that the sensor probe is not damaged. If the deposits cannot be easily removed, replace the temperature sensor. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Temperature Sensor (Cooled Exhaust Gas) - Remove and Install". Result: The probe on the temperature sensor does not have excessive deposits. Proceed to Test Step 6. |
6. Inspect the NRS Mixer A. Inspect the NRS mixer for cracks, holes, or damage. |
NRS mixer |
Result: The NRS mixer is defective. Repair: Replace the NRS mixer. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, "Inlet Air Control - Remove" and Disassembly and Assembly, "Inlet Air Control - Install". Result: There are no visible faults on the NRS mixer. Contact the Dealer Solutions Network (DSN). |
7. Check the Coolant Level A. Check the coolant level. B. Check for leaks from the coolant system. |
Coolant level |
Result : The coolant level is low or a coolant leak is identified. Rectify any coolant leaks and fill the coolant system to the correct level. Result : The coolant level is normal and there are no coolant leaks. Proceed to Test Step 8. |
8. Inspect the NRS Cooler A. Perform a leak test on the NRS cooler. Refer to System Operation, Testing, Adjusting, Exhaust Cooler (NRS) - Test. |
NRS cooler |
Result : The NRS Cooler has internal leakage or fouling. Repair: Replace the NRS Cooler. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly, Exhaust Cooler (NRS) - Remove and Install. Result : The NRS Cooler has no internal leakage or fouling. The fault is still present. Contact the Dealer Solutions Network (DSN). |
