PTF 000190.19 – Engine Speed Sensor, Fault
PTF 000190.19 (PTF 190.19)
Code: 000190.19
Shortcode: 190.19
Description:
This error code is generated when the ECU control software cannot determine the engine speed and, as a result, cannot provide the CAN bus with any data. A replacement value is transmitted, generating this diagnostic trouble code in the PTF control software. This fault also generates a diagnostic trouble code in the ECU control software, which takes priority.
Reaction:
When this code is detected, the control software may exhibit limited or no functionality.
Recommendations:
- Inspect Engine Speed Sensor:
- Verify the functionality of the engine speed sensor using diagnostic tools.
- Replace the sensor if it is found to be faulty.
- Check Sensor Wiring:
- Inspect the wiring and connections to the engine speed sensor for damage or loose connections.
- Repair or replace any defective components.
- Update ECU Software:
- Ensure the ECU control software is up to date.
- Update the software if necessary.
- Verify CAN Bus Communication:
- Use diagnostic tools to ensure that the engine speed data is correctly transmitted over the CAN bus.
Note:
Maintaining a functional engine speed sensor and reliable CAN bus communication is crucial for the control software’s performance. Regular checks and timely replacements can prevent these issues.
