How can I tell if my Regen process is not working?

How can I tell if my Regen process is not working?

If I stop the vehicle the regen will restart when exhaust temps come up and it will stop at about 2-4 grams of soot. Regen temps are also measured as a way of telling if the injector is working. If it calls for a regen and the temps don’t come up I think a message will be displayed or a code thrown.

When does Regen start on a DPF filter?

Wonder what codes you have now. Regen is initiated based on DPF filter diff. pressure. On mine starts at 43 grams of soot and goes to about 0 grams if I am driving. If I stop the vehicle the regen will restart when exhaust temps come up and it will stop at about 2-4 grams of soot.

Why is the Regen process not working on my LML?

The next day, the CEL was on with P2463 and it went into limp mode. I had to drive it a little bit, but tried to keep it minimal. The day after that, I took it to the dealer and they did two service regens with the Tech II to clear the DPF out.

Is there a forced Regen on the insight CTS?

Dealer did a forced regen and filled the DEF tank. I added an Insight CTS monitor and in the past 4000 miles I’ve seen nothing but normal operation and normal regens beginning at 44 grams. But if something atypical shows up it will back to the dealer. Wonder what codes you have now. Regen is initiated based on DPF filter diff. pressure.

What’s the issue with the Regen process not working?

The Edge CTS has helped me monitor the engine and with a recent #2 NOX ssensor issue. I provided the codes to the dealer and what I expected the problem to be. The diesel tech did not re-connect the CTS after he completed the repairs – probably a “GM thing”. P2463 came back up Monday when I was driving the truck.

How does exhaust soot cause DPF regenerations?

Exhaust soot is the product of incomplete combustion, the soot is actually partially burned fuel. Soot creates back pressure and the regeneration is triggered and your headaches begin.
