(21) Aftertreatment Electronic Control Module (ECM)The purpose of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is to create a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) process to take place in the exhaust system to reduce Nitrogen Oxides (NOx).When the engine is keyed on but not running, DEF is not being injected into the system. When the engine is running, the DEF may be too cold or frozen to be injected. When the ambient or tank temperatures are cold enough, the DEF control unit (DCU) opens the coolant diverter valve to allow engine coolant to flow through the DEF tank to warm the system. The DCU also activates the heater circuits in the lines and pump to prevent DEF from freezing in the lines and pump. The time it takes to thaw the system depends on the tank temperature. Since the system always starts with empty lines, the pump activates to fill the lines with fluid before DEF injection begins.Once the system is thawed and primed, the DEF will be injected into the exhaust system when the DEF tank and SCR temperatures are warm enough. If the system does not heat up after duration of time, a diagnostic code will become active.Note: Typical usage for DEF is 1-3% of diesel fluid. The DEF tank should be refilled at the same time as the fuel tank.The DEF system has three operation modes:1. DEF Priming ModeSince the system always starts with empty lines, the pump activates to fill the lines with fluid before DEF injection begins. Priming will start when engine speed is greater than 450 rpm, DEF tank temp is greater than −6° C (21.2° F), and SCR inlet temperature is greater
