The Differential Pressure Sensor (2) is located near the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Two pressure tubes (4) measure pressure before and after the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)/Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC). The sensor is critical for fail-safe of regeneration strategy, because it interprets high pressure drops as possible high soot loads.
