Information: fault code P1490 (engine management ECU) (DV6TED4) Citroen C2 I

fault codeP1490
after sales description of the fault coderegeneration not achieved: regeneration request too frequent
description of the diagnosticsnumber of regeneration requests in downgrade mode; (made by the ECU): more than 2
conditions of activation of the diagnosticsconsult the associated contexts for the Pcode forwarding conditions
conditions of disappearance of the faultafter a complete cycle of regeneration of the particle filter
down-grade modes if fault present-
switching on of the warning lamp and/or warning message-
main customer complaints likelyengine hesitating, cutting out
lack of power
noise

after sales description of the fault codeparticle filter: detected overloaded
description of the diagnosticsparticle filter overloaded
for a volume flow passing through the particle filter of 200000 l/h, the differential pressure is greater than 170 mbar for 10 s
for a volume flow passing through the particle filter of 300 000 l/h, the differential pressure is greater than 286 mbar for 10 s (engine speed approximately 4000 revs/min)
for a volume flow passing through the particle filter of 500 000 l/h, the differential pressure is greater than 500 mbar for 10 s
conditions of activation of the diagnosticsvolume flow rate passing through the particulate emission filter above 0,025 m3/s (90 000 l/h)
conditions of disappearance of the faultdriving with the engine hot for 5 minutes
down-grade modes if fault present-
switching on of the warning lamp and/or warning message-
main customer complaints likelystarting problem
lack of power
engine hesitating, cutting out
noise
fluid leak / smells
suspect areascatalytic converter: wear
particle filter: blockage
particle filter differential pressure sensor: take-off clogged; electrical harness
particulate filter upstream gas temperature sensor: sensor drift; electrical harness
particle filter additive: additive: incorrect:
vehicle used too much for city driving
additive pump: pump jammed; leak; electrical harness
additive pump output hose: leak / plug
anti-return valve: locked
