3. Check for High Exhaust Temperatures
A. Several factors can cause a calculated high exhaust temperature. Refer to "Troubleshooting, Exhaust Temperature Is High" for further information on calculated high exhaust temperatures
   
High Exhaust Temperatures
   
Result: The engine is experiencing high exhaust temperatures. Repair the cause of the high exhaust temperature.
Result: The engine is not experiencing high exhaust temperatures.
Proceed to Test Step 4.
   
4. Perform a manual cylinder cutout test.
A. Remove the inlet section (DOC) from the DPF.
B. Use Cat ET to set the value of the "ARD Manual Disable Status" configuration parameter to "Disabled" in order to disable the ARD.
