This is the official 2013 PACCAR MX P0408 EGR difference diagnostic service manual, published by PACCAR for technicians troubleshooting exhaust gas recirculation system faults on EPA 2013–compliant MX engines. The document provides complete fault code definitions, component descriptions, electrical diagrams, and step-by-step diagnostic procedures to isolate and repair P0408 voltage and short circuit conditions on ECU pin D420 C80.
P0408 is triggered when the ECU detects EGR pressure difference sensor output voltage exceeding 4.81 V, indicating either a faulty sensor, wiring short circuit to the 5 V supply, or internal ECU failure. This manual covers the sensor location, operating temperature limits (125°C maximum with coolant cooling), and the dual internal pressure sensors that measure differential flow through the EGR venturi.
