DTC P2459

Diesel particulate filter regeneration frequency

DETECTION CONDITION
If the diesel particulate filter regeneration frequency reaches the specified frequency as calculated from the engine operation condition for engine protection, the PCM determines that the diesel particulate filter regeneration frequency is too short.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Scheduled maintenance does not have followed
•  Diesel particulate filter differential pressure sensor improper connection
•  Exhaust gas leakage in exhaust system after diesel particulate filter
•  Low engine compression
•  Diesel particulate filter restriction or damaged
•  Fuel injection system malfunction
•  PCM malfunction

•  Does the vehicle have followed engine related items?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Followed the scheduled maintenance, then go to the next step.
5
INSPECT DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE SENSOR PIPING
•  Inspect for connection and condition at diesel particulate filter differential pressure sensor side piping.
•  Is there any clacked damaged and/or misconnection found?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 10.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT EXHAUST GAS LEAKAGE
•  Inspect the exhaust system for leakage at diesel particulate filter downstream side.
•  Is there any leakage found diesel particulate filter downstream side?
Yes
Repair or replace malfunctioning part, then go to Step 10.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT ENGINE COMPRESSION
•  Inspect the engine compression for all cylinders.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Overhaul the engine for repairs, then go to Step 10.
No
Go to the next step.
8
VISUALLY INSPECT DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER FOR RESTRICT AND DAMAGE
•  Cool down the engine.
•  Remove the catalytic converter.
•  Visually inspect the diesel particulate filter.
•  Is there any restrict or damage?
Yes
Replace the catalytic converter, then go to Step 10.
No
Go to the next step.
9
INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR FOR STUCK OPEN
•  Remove the all fuel injector.
•  Is there any stuck open?
Yes
Replace the suspect fuel injector, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
10
VERIFY THAT DTC P2459 TROUBLESHOOTING IS COMPLETED
•  Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Run the vehicle under the FREEZE FRAME DATA stored condition.
•  Is the same DTC present?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
11
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
