35D Active DEF tank forensics

[split71]

I think we have determined that the sensor is indeed a 10k ohm ntc thermistor. I don't think the 50k ohm sensor will work.

The resistor will go across both wires.

Ok, well I'll try the resistor first thank you

Would this work?

[split71]

If it's rated 10k ohms @ 25c that should work.

One other thing, this code is new. I am not sure what this code is. Driver detection?

IMO that may be a spurious error code due to a low voltage or glitch with a microcontroller on a CAN bus- possible a usb controller?

Would not be concerned- clear and see if it comes back when the car is buttoned, regularly driven with a good battery/charge

Did you have a chance to try the resistor. I have the temp plausibility fault on my 2011 X5 35d and would like to avoid replacing the complete active tank.

Yes I tried a resistor and a thermistor and neither of them worked... I still have a check engine light and I still need help fixing it as well

[Txchoicemotors]

any updates? Ive read about Jarek DPF delte, and i'm very interested in doing this. but not sure if it will fix my problem

Same issue?

done any more since the last update 6 weeks ago?
