Code and Description Conditions which Generate this Code System Response
827-8 Left Exhaust Temperature Sensor abnormal frequency, pulse width, or period The Electronic Control Module (ECM) detects a sensor frequency that is greater than 600 Hz or less than 400 Hz.
The ECM detects a duty cycle that is greater than 88 percent or a duty cycle that is less than 22 percent. The ECM flags the exhaust temperature as invalid data.
828-8 Right Exhaust Temperature Sensor abnormal frequency, pulse width, or period System OperationA Pulse Width Modulated Sensor (PWM) provides a signal to the Electronic Control Module (ECM) from the exhaust temperature sensor. The sensor receives a 8.0 0.4 VDC regulated voltage from the ECM.The sensor generates a PWM signal that is in a specific range of duty cycle that is sent to the ECM. This range is directly related to the temperature that is sampled by the temperature probe. When the temperature of the sensor probe is 50 °C (122 °F) the duty cycle output of the sensor is 22 percent. When the temperature of the sensor probe is 850 °C (1550 °F) the duty cycle output of the sensor is 88 percent. As the temperature of the probe fluctuates between the minimum and the maximum temperatures, the duty cycle fluctuates on a scale that is directly related to the temperature of the temperature probe.The ECM performs an automatic calibration of this sensor whenever the ECM is powered and the engine has been off for at least five seconds.The ECM provides short circuit protection for the internal power supply. A short circuit to the battery will not damage the internal power supply of the ECM.
