Abstract:
A self-diagnosing method for diagnosing a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system of a vehicle that includes an internal combustion engine. An SCR system is arranged downstream of the engine, and the SCR system includes at least one exhaust gas sensor that is sensitive to nitrogen oxides (NOx) gas. The method includes a first diagnosing sequence (S1) of ensuring that the vehicle is in a stationary state, controlling the engine to operate in a high NOx output engine operating state and in a low NOx output engine operating state, registering an output signal of the at least one exhaust gas sensor when the engine operates in each of the high NOx output engine operating state and low NOx output engine operating state, and diagnosing NOx measurement performance of the at least one exhaust gas sensor on the basis of the registered sensor output.
