2 Delta P Sensor

2 Delta P Sensor

The delta P sensor is mounted on the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) venturi pipe. The Motor Control Module (MCM-MCM2)
receives a signal from the delta P sensor which senses pressure and drop across the EGR venturi. The MCM-MCM2 uses this
signal to calculate the EGR flow rate.

NOTE: A new sensor became effective November 2, 2011, with DD15 engine S/N: 472903S0103639 and DD13
engine S/N: 471903S0103500. The old sensor is no longer available. The first time an old style delta P sensor is
replaced, a kit will be required. Refer to 12TS-4 for kit ordering information.

3 Removal of the Delta P Sensor

3 Removal of the Delta P Sensor

Remove as follows:
1. Remove the delta P sensor protective cover (if applicable) by removing two bolts.
2. Release the harness connector on the sensor by pushing the orange tab up to unlock the connector, depress the thumb tab
and remove the harness connector.
3. Remove the two bolts from the delta P sensor securing it to the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) venturi pipe.
4. Remove the two hose clamps and the hose that connects the delivery pipe to the venturi. Slide the hose onto the delivery
pipe.
5. Remove the two bolts from the venturi to the crossover tube and remove the venturi pipe.

4 Cleaning of the Exhaust Gas Recirculation Venturi Pipe Delta P Sensor

Ports

Clean as follows:
1. Using a suitable wire brush, clean out any debris from the delta P sensor ports (1).

2. Clean the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) venturi pipe delta P flange (2) with clean diesel fuel.

WARNING: EYE INJURY (cit24)

To avoid injury from flying debris when using compressed air, wear adequate eye protection (face
shield or safety goggles) and do not exceed 276 kPa (40 psi) air pressure.

3. Dry the EGR venturi pipe with shop air.

5 Installation of the Delta P Sensor

5 Installation of the Delta P Sensor

Install as follows:
1. Install the venturi onto the crossover tube and install the two bolts. Torque to 30 N·m (22 lb·ft).
2. Tighten the clamps on the rubber hose to 3.0 - 3.5 N·m (22 - 26.5 lb·in.).
3. Install the delta P sensor to the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) venturi pipe with two bolts and tighten. Torque to 10
N·m (7 lb·ft).
4. Install the harness connector to the sensor and push the red tab down to lock the harness connector to the sensor.
5. Install the protective delta P sensor cover with two bolts. Torque to 10 N·m (7 lb·ft).
