Scania EMS DTC 444 Oil temperature sensor T4001

EMS Engine Management System · Scania

Code 444 (decimal). Some diagnostic tools show it in hexadecimal as 01BC.

In short

The voltage in the circuit has been above the permitted level.

Applies to: EMS S8

What does Scania EMS fault code 444 mean?

The voltage in the circuit has been above the permitted level.

What causes Scania DTC 444?

- Open circuit in oil temperature sensor circuit. - Fault in the oil pressure sensor circuit or coolant level sensor circuit

How does the system react?

If the voltage is outside the permitted range, the control unit uses a pre-programmed value. There is a common voltage supply for the oil temperature sensor, oil pressure sensor and coolant level sensor. If a fault occurs in one of the sensors, the other sensor circuits may be affected.

How to fix Scania EMS fault code 444?

  1. Check that the oil temperature and coolant temperature are at approximately the same level when the engine is cold.
  2. Check the oil temperature sensor, oil pressure sensor and coolant level sensor, along with the harness-to-harness connectors and electrical cables in the circuits.
