Inlet DPF Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor (C) 999.94

[andrei]

Hi,
I have a 2015 Ram 1500 ecodiesel, 46k miles and today I got the CEL. I scanned for the trouble codes and I got P0426 and P0428. I was not be able to clear the codes. After that I checked the sensors and the Inlet DPF Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor (C) shows 999.94. Does anybody here had this problem before?

The 999.94 C is the temperature the computer shows for the sensor.

I went to the dealer and they told me that the FEW expires at 50k or after 3 years... so my truck is 2015 and they told me that the sensor is not covered under the warranty....

Does anyone knows the location of the sensor, maybe I can change it by myself. Bank 1, sensor 1? Thanks,

The FEW for a Cat is 8 years / 80k miles. A sensor might be shorter.

 

[andrei]

I guess....I am thinking to change it by my self.... but I looked under car....and we have so many sensors....I want to make sure I will change the one I supposed too. . Does anybody knows how much the dealer charge for that work?

got the same issue. Which sensor is the Catalyst Temperature sensor? Did you find the location? Did you find a part number?

EGT 1 is on the exhaust manifold connector, connecting the turbo. Here are the other sensors
