Self-Calibration
Some newer vehicles can auto calibrate by having the wheel turned
from lock to lock and then centered and cycling the key。
Scan Tool Steering Angle Sensor Reset
There are many options for scan tools to reset SASs. Some tools are
even integrated into an alignment system. But, most tools recommend
that the calibration be performed on a level surface. Also, it is a good
idea to perform a lock-to-lock turn to complete the calibration.
2.7 DPF review
A Diesel Particulate Filter, often referred to as the DPF is a device
designed and integrated into the Diesel Engine exhaust systems to
trap and remove Diesel Particulate Matter or Soot from the exhaust
gasses of the diesel engine. A DPF works in conjunction with the
to remove a majority of the NOx,
particulate matter and unburned hydrocarbons from burned diesel fuel.
The result of DPF is greater economy, improved smoothness and a
reduction of harmful emissions.
The soot trapped in DPF will partially block your DPF causing the
DPF/CAT light to illuminate on the dash (normally when 45%
blockage is reached) at which point regeneration is required to get the
DPF back in to safety zone.
DPF light on
When the DPF light appear on the dash intermittently, this means
there is a partial blockage in your DPF and a regeneration process is
required. If you ignore it and keep on driving, eventually it will stay
on permanently and in most severe cases brings on the Engine
management light and even the Coil Light. If this happens, you will
lose all power and vehicle will fall into ―Limp Mode‖.
