Deutz-Fahr P242A-13: Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor (Downstream SCR) - Open Circuit

The fault code indicates an open circuit in the exhaust gas temperature sensor located downstream of the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system. This condition prevents the system from properly monitoring exhaust gas temperature, which can affect emissions control and engine performance.

1. 1

   The wiring and connections to the exhaust gas temperature sensor (downstream SCR)

2. 2

   The integrity of the sensor itself

3. 3

   The electrical continuity of the circuit between the sensor and the controller

1. 1

   Inspect

   Inspect the wiring and connections to the exhaust gas temperature sensor (downstream SCR) for damage, corrosion, or loose connections.

2. 2

   Test

   Test the electrical continuity of the circuit using a multimeter to identify any open connections.

3. 3

   Replace

   If the sensor or its wiring is found to be faulty, replace the component identified by this code.
