Volvo All Engines (2017 Emissions) Fault Code: P047013 PID: EMS Exhaust Pressure Sensor “A”

The Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor is a thermistor. The resistance of the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor changes inversely to the temperature of the engine coolant. When the coolant is cold, the sensor resistance is high. As the temperature of the coolant increases, the sensor resistance decreases.
The Engine Control Module (ECM) monitors the voltage drop across the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor.
The coolant temperature signal is used to calculate fuel injection and to evaluate operating conditions of the engine coolant temperature. Examples of conditions that may cause high coolant temperature are: thermostat failure, fan failure, heavy load, high ambient temperatures and radiator blockage.
The sensor’s signal is monitored by the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The engine control module (ECM) will set a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and derate the engine to avoid engine damage if the sensor signal is not within predetermined limits, or the signal is not rational.

Conditions for diagnostic trouble code (DTC):
1) The voltage at pin A14.EB:12 is less than 0.2 V

Diagnostic monitor condition
1) Key in ON position

Observable symptoms
1) Engine brake, poor brake performance

Probable cause
1) Exhaust back pressure sensor
2) Open circuit, Signal wire
3) Short circuit to ground, Signal wire
4) Engine control module (ECM)
