If the voltages at PCM terminal 207, 246 and 119 deviates from the threshold, the PCM determines that the there is a diesel particulate filter differential pressure sensor range/performance malfunction.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Diesel particulate filter differential pressure sensor malfunction
•  Connector or terminal malfunction
•  PCM malfunction
