What you can monitor:

• Intake pressure (turbo boost): Monitor turbocharger performance to gauge how your engine responds under various load conditions.
• DPF soot and ash levels: Monitor the accumulation of soot and ash to determine the optimal times for DPF regen, helping prevent DPF derates.
• DEF fluid level: Keep track of Diesel Exhaust Fluid levels.
• EGR valve position: Track the position of the Exhaust Gas Recirculation valve.
• Exhaust and DPF temperatures: Observe temperatures to manage the DPF Regen process effectively.
• SCR temperatures: Keep an eye on Selective Catalytic Reduction temperatures to ensure NOx reduction.
• Engine mileage & hours: Track engine hours and other vital diagnostics.
• + more: We go even beyond this list. Our goal is to supply you with data to help you monitor your vehicle in real time.

Resetting fault codes: The reset of fault codes covers both active and Inactive codes.

• Active codes: These are alerts for current issues that need immediate attention.
• Inactive codes: These are records of past problems. They’re helpful for spotting patterns or issues that might come back again.
• Reset all modules: We perform the reset on all the available modules that we are connected to, including transmission, body, cab & chassis systems. 

Importance of resetting codes: Clearing these codes after you fix an issue keeps the diagnostic system focused only on what’s currently active. This is crucial for verifying that repairs were successful and for maintaining accurate, up-to-date vehicle diagnostics.

Disabling EGR derate for fault codes P1495 and P1496

When experiencing power derate due to EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) issues signaled by fault codes P1495 or P1496, you can reset this condition.

Using Reset EGR Derate you can effectively disable the EGR derate, restoring your vehicle’s power and performance.

When a cleaned Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) is reinstalled in a vehicle, it's critical to reset the ash level recorded in the aftertreatment Electronic Control Unit (ECU).

Key steps to reset the ash level:

• Initiate the reset test procedure: This action requests the aftertreatment ECU to clear any previous ash accumulation data.
• ECU adjustment: The aftertreatment ECU resets its internal ash level to zero, acknowledging the DPF has been cleaned and reinstalled.

Importance of resetting ash levels:

• Maintain DPF efficiency: Resetting the ash level ensures that the DPF operates at optimal efficiency, free from past contamination data.
• Prevent false maintenance alerts: Accurate ash level readings prevent unnecessary maintenance alerts and ensure the vehicle’s emission system is correctly evaluated.
• Extend DPF lifespan: Proper maintenance and resetting of ash levels contribute to extending the life of the DPF, promoting better fuel economy and reduced emissions.

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) captures soot during engine operation. To clear this soot, the DPF periodically undergoes active or passive regen, usually automatically, while the engine runs.

When to use:

• Fault codes: Some fault codes require you to run a forced DPF regen in order for certain fault codes to clear. This is because the emission system wants to run through all the system checks before the fault codes is cleared.
• Driving conditions: If regular driving doesn't achieve the engine load and temperature necessary for active regen, then a forced DPF regen becomes essential. This is often required in situations involving excessive idling or operations under light loads.
• High soot: If soot accumulation surpasses what normal regeneration can handle, a forced DPF regen is necessary to prevent blockages.

Benefits:

• Ensures efficiency & reliability: It maintains the DPF’s effectiveness and extends its lifespan.
