What Does The Jeep P1693 Code Mean?

The Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) Injector is mounted to the decomposition tube at the inlet of the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) Catalyst. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) sends a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal to DEF Injector to vary the amount of fluid sprayed into the exhaust stream. The PCM will illuminate the MIL lamp after this diagnostic runs and fails. This is a two Trip Fault.

What Are The Potential Causes Of The Jeep P1693 Code?

  • DEF injector negative circuit shorted to voltage
  • DEF injector
  • Powertrain control module
