Reductant Tank Temperature Sensor B Circuit High

Voltage on the reductant tank B temperature sensor signal line is above the expected window. Wire shorted to B+ or sensor open.

Affected components

  • Reductant tank temperature sensor b
  • Wiring harness
  • Scr module

Common causes

  • High likelihood: Signal wire shorted to B+
  • Medium likelihood: Open sensor
  • Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance

Possible symptoms

  • Check engine light or NOx warning on
  • AdBlue/DEF level or quality warning
  • Possible no-start countdown after ignore period
  • Failed emissions inspection (NOx)

Diagnostic notes

  • The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
  • This code can affect emissions
  • Reduced-power or limp mode may occur
