Overheat Protection Activated, Oil Temperature.


Fault symptom


Check Engine not on. The engine loses power to protect it against overheating.


Conditions

The following conditions apply for the DTC in question:


Depending on the vehicle speed and the engine oil temperature, a limit is determined at which the maximum injection quantity starts to be reduced. The higher the temperature and the lower the vehicle speed, the greater the reduction in power. The function takes effect when the engine oil temperature is 150°C (302°F).


Diagnostic help

It is very improbable that the overheating protection for the engine oil will take effect, as the engine coolant overheating protection will take effect first and reduce the heat. Perform fault diagnosis as for P0195.
