Fault text
DDE: Reducing-agent pressure-line heating diagnosis,
signal: Short circuit to positive

Fault description
Metering wire/delivery module heater monitoring. When the
voltage signal rises above the maximum limit 3200 mV the
diagnostic trouble code is logged.

Condition for fault identification
Test condition:
The test routine is executed only provided that no other
electrical faults are present. The error check proceeds
continuously according to the defined process running time.
Voltage condition:
