ECU 000412.15 – EGR Temperature Signal Slightly High. John Deere System Advisory.
ECU 000412.15 (ECU 412.15)
Code: 000412.15
Shortcode: 412.15
Description:
Error code ECU 000412.15 is activated when the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) exhaust temperature is detected slightly above the normal specifications. This minor deviation might be caused by slight clogging in the EGR cooler or minor issues with the EGR valve not opening sufficiently.
Reaction:
The system may make minor adjustments to EGR flow or engine performance to manage the slightly increased temperature and prevent further escalation.
Recommendations:
- Inspect EGR Valve and Cooler: Check for partial blockages or mechanical issues with the EGR valve and clean or repair as necessary.
- Monitor EGR System Operation: Use diagnostic tools to monitor EGR operation and confirm effective functioning.
- Adjust EGR Settings if Required: If the system allows, adjust the EGR settings to lower the exhaust temperatures.
- Clear Codes and Perform Road Test: After making adjustments, clear any diagnostic trouble codes and perform a road test to ensure the issue is resolved.
Note:
Regular EGR system maintenance is crucial to prevent excessive exhaust temperatures and ensure compliance with emission standards.
