How can I tell if my Dodge Ram is in Regen mode?
Unless you have something to read the ECM for turbo and exhaust temps, you won’t know if the truck is in a regen. When in regen, the turbo and DPF temps are usually in 1000°F – 1200°F range. If your towing, it’s possible that the DPF will stay hot enough that it doesn’t need to do an active regen.
