DPF Light on and won’t go off? Get it diagnosed ASAP. Diagnostics Consultation on a BMW Mini 1.6 diesel (2007 – 123,327 miles)

⚠ī¸ DPF Light on and won’t go off? Get it diagnosed ASAP as typically a component required for regeneration will be faulty.

🚗 Here we have a BMW Mini 1.6 diesel (2007 – 123,327 miles) with a DPF light on. The light had been illuminated now without going out for some time and the vehicle was starting to suffer.

🔎📊 Diagnostics showed the glow plug controller was faulty.

❗ Before a vehicle will regenerate it needs to be up to temperature and have enough fuel in it, but as well requires a number of components to be functional. Exhaust Gas temperature sensors, DPF pressure sensors, EGRs amongst others and in the case of BMW vehicles a glowplug system fault will disable regeneration.

ℹī¸ In any vehicle driving around at high revs will not ‘force’ a regeneration if the supporting components are faulty.

In this case no cleaning performed and the owner advised to get the glowplug controller replaced (and plugs for good measure).
