Your particle filter light goes off and you do not know where the problem is coming from. The particulate filter is found particularly for vehicles Diesel, even if they are now found for petrol vehicles. Before attempting repairs for this Toyota Pod, it remains essential to understand where the problem comes from. How does a particulate filter work? Why does the warning light come on? What are the most common malfunctions? In this article, we will do a point-by-point guide. 
What is a DPF on your Toyota Pod for?
As its designation indicates, it is used to filter microscopic molecules toxiques of your vehicle. These particles are so small that they easily enter your body. It should be noted that it is Peugeot who made the particulate filter. The role of the catalyst is to restrict the dose of molecules produced from the engine block, and the particulate filter collects the rest. It actually seems necessary to have an operational DPF if you do not want this Toyota Pod to contaminate the air you inhale.
Why is the DPF warning light on your Toyota Pod
The FAP of your Toyota Pod is clogged
This remains the most recurring dysfunction. And this is normal, the particulate filter becomes clogged over time. Molecules form clusters and hinder the evacuation of your exhaust gases. A priori, the particulate filter in this Toyota Pod is supposed to be cleaned by itself and thus remove this waste. However, if the latter is old, it is essential to replace it with a new one.
An electronic problem
The problem with indicator lights is that you are by no means sure you have a malfunction. In fact, it often appears that a warning light is on while this Toyota Pod is running without problem. This particulate filter has electronic sounders that send the message to the indicator light. If your sounders are not working well while your particulate filter is fine, your light is likely to come on.
What to do if the DPF light on your Toyota Pod comes on?
First of all, it is still perfectly illegal to remove the fap on your vehicle! It is considered a crime. You can check the sensors to be able to see if they are working perfectly. If they themselves are functioning properly, the problem is with the DPF. If the latter turns out to be clogged, you can relieve it by driving in towers for 10 to 15 minutes. Do not go too high in the towers, the process may damage the vehicle. We advise you to drive at 3000 rpm. The heat of the vehicle will in this way be able to roast the encrusted dirt, and thus purify your particulate filter. If this technique does not work at all, it should be replaced.

A fap in bad condition will pollute and make you lose power. It is therefore essential to take care of it. Post a comment if our text has helped you. Good road !
