In a selective catalytic reductant dosing system including a reductant injector adapted to inject liquid reductant into an exhaust line, a method of analyzing flow of reductant through the injector includes determining a measure of the temperature of the injector prior to activation of the injector. The method also includes activating the injector and determining a measure of the temperature of the injector subsequent to activation of the injector. The method also includes analyzing the flow of reductant through the injector consequential to the activation by analyzing changes in the measure of temperature of the injector prior to activation and the measure of temperature of the injector subsequent to activation.
