C1654 Diagnostic Trouble Code
C1654 is a kind of OBD-II Diagnostic C-Chassis Diagnostic Trouble Code.
It is considered generic because it applies to all makes and models of vehicles, although specific repair steps may be different depending on your car model.
Symptoms
Symptoms of a C1654 diagnostic trouble code may include:
- The light may stay on or light intermittently as the DPF regenerates. The engine will be sluggish on acceleration.
- Faulty PCM
- If the DPF is not cleared the ECU will revert to the "Limp Home Mode" until the situation is corrected
- The engine oil will exhibit dilution from the ECUs attempts to increase engine temperature. Some vehicles advance the fuel injection timing slightly after top center to afterburn a small amount of fuel to increase exhaust temperatures. Some of this fuel enters the crankcase. When the ECU determines the necessity to regenerate the DPF, the service life of the oil be shortened significantly

Possible Causes :
- A large vacuum leak would cause a massive amount of un-metered air to enter the intake manifold resulting in an overly lean mixture.
- Faulty IMRC actuator/sensor
- An air leak forward of the DPF will change the sensor readings resulting in the code

Repair Processes :
You might continue by connecting the scanner to the vehicle diagnostic connector and retrieving all stored codes and freeze frame data.
Find out what kind of system you have and verify that voltage to the fuel level sensor is present at the fuel pump wiring harness.
Process Tips
Diagnostic trouble code C1654 is not difficult to diagnose and repair. Thus, it always pays to have a qualified technician to look after your vehicle should this error code arise.
