New Holland ENG 3801 – Engine ECU: Turbine upstream pressure sensor: SRC High for Turbine upstream pressure sensor
Issue description
The signal voltage from the exhaust gas pressure sensor (which measures pressure upstream of the turbocharger turbine) is too high, typically pointing to a short circuit to the battery (B+) or an open circuit in the sensor wiring.

Check the cause
Inspect the wiring harness between the exhaust gas pressure sensor and the Engine ECU for chafed wires causing a short to power (battery voltage) or a disconnected/open circuit.
Check the exhaust gas pressure sensor signal tube (the metal tube connecting the exhaust manifold to the sensor) for heavy soot blockages, cracks, or leaks.
Use a multimeter to verify the 5V reference supply, ground, and signal return at the sensor connector.
Repair steps
Turn off machine and disconnect battery
Turn off the machine and disconnect the battery to prevent electrical spikes.
Locate the exhaust gas pressure sensor
Locate the exhaust gas pressure sensor, typically mounted near the EGR valve or exhaust manifold.
Disconnect electrical harness
Disconnect the electrical harness connector from the sensor.
Remove sensor signal tube
Carefully loosen and remove the exhaust gas pressure sensor signal tube.
Remove faulty sensor
Remove the faulty exhaust gas pressure sensor.
Install new sensor
Install the new sensor.
Reinstall sensor signal tube
Reinstall the exhaust gas pressure sensor signal tube. (Note: If the EGR flex pipe was removed for access, OEM manuals mandate replacing both EGR gaskets and torquing the flex pipe to 25 N·m / 18 lb ft).
Reconnect electrical harness
Reconnect the electrical harness.
Clear fault codes and verify
Reconnect the battery, turn the key on, and use a diagnostic service tool (like CNH EST) to clear the fault codes and verify the sensor reading is within normal parameters.
