P24EB

NH3 Sensor Supply Voltage Circuit Low

The NH3 slip sensor supply voltage drops below the lower limit. Usually a partial short to ground in the supply line, an undersized ground path with high resistance, or an internal supply collapse in the SCR/dosing module. Sensor output is held invalid until the supply recovers.

  • Check engine light: Yes
  • Emissions related: Yes
  • Repair difficulty: medium

Common causes

Ordered by how often each turns out to be the cause.

  • Supply line shorted to groundCommon
  • High-resistance ground at the SCR modulePossible
  • Connector pins corroded - high contact resistanceLess likely

Parts involved

  • Nh3 Sensor
  • Supply Wiring
  • Dosing Module

P24EB is a generic OBD-II code defined by SAE J2012. Exact wording and diagnostic procedure vary by manufacturer and model. Code definitions are drawn from the public-domain OBDex dataset; the workshop notes are our own.
