AdBlue Warning Light On (Fixed)
Volvo FL AdBlue Fault
A Volvo truck was presented to our workshop today, the driver had reported a fault that the instrument cluster was showing a warning for AdBlue system failure.
Naturally the first action to take was to carry out a diagnostic code read. However when we attempted to code read the AdBlue control module (ECU) it was found to be not communicating.
Instead carrying out a fault code read of the engine control unit was found to be useful, here are the results:
- MID(128):Injection ECU, PSID:229, FMI (9):Data update frequency
- Connection problem with the UDS (AdBlue pump module) ECU on the SAE J1939 CAN bus data line.
It became apparent that the AdBlue system was not accessible due to a CAN bus fault.
The next step was to monitor the CAN network at the AdBlue ECU. As we explained in our previous CAN fault finding article, we first test the CAN network with the wiring block disconnected from the AdBlue ECU. The oscilloscope was setup as follows:
Here is the waveform as viewed on the oscilloscope:
- Channel A / 1 - 5vDC
- Channel B / 2 - 5vDC
- Timing - 50 nano seconds
Here is the waveform as viewed on the oscilloscope:

As you can tell with the ECU disconnected the CAN network behaves as expected (equal and opposite traces between the CAN High and CAN Low). Next we reconnect the wire to the ECU and continue to monitor the CAN signal with the oscilloscope, again here are the results:
 |
| Bad CAN Signal AdBlue System |
It is clear that with the AdBlue ECU connected there is a definite fault with the CAN signal. Most notably on the red CAN Low line. This suggests that the fault lies within the ECU and not the wiring.
Next we removed the ECU from the AdBlue module and proceeded to open the ECU to see if there was any visible corrosion or burnt components.
We found corrosion and a burnt component on the circuit board, here is an image of the burnt component:

We proceeded to order a new AdBlue pump and ECU module, once received it was fitted the fault codes cleared and the the vehicle road tested. All was good the fault was fixed and the vehicle returned to the customer.
Hopefully this article helps you to diagnose CAN network faults and determine if the fault is in the wiring or ECU.

ReplyDeleteVolvo brand is recognized as one of the best auto brands to introduce new features to the auto industry. AdBlue warning light is another new invention in the auto industry, so we need to know about the possible fault codes of it. Though, it is a bit tough to understand these codes but we can at least make some awareness about the codes and for what they meant for. Anyways, thanks for the valuable post.

ReplyDeleteThanks to the author for posting such a nice blog. Volvo is having well deserved reputation for safety in its cars. I am having a volvo car which has features such as line of forced -induction, four cyclinder engines and gas turbine hybrid. It uses tri-digit system for their cars. It has some safety measures like pedestrian detection with auto brake, city safety, distance alert and cross traffic alert. To get perfect performance from our Volvo, it is required to get it serviced from certified Volvo professionals in prior time. We can go for our Volvo's regular maintenance & service to stay away from costly repair work.
