C2249 Daimler One-o-four Diagnostic Trouble Code

C2249 Daimler One-o-four code definition:
C2249 is a kind of OBD-II Diagnostic C-Chassis Diagnostic Trouble Code for Daimler One-o-four.

C2249 Daimler One-o-four is described as Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Circuit Malfunction. It's actually a general trouble code for a problem on IAT electrical circuit sensor, as it sends incorrect voltage input signals to the PCM. As you drive and when specific conditions are slowly met, the vapors will gradually purge from the charcoal canister and will get burned within your engine.

Symptoms

Symptoms of a C2249 Daimler One-o-four diagnostic trouble code may include:

Misfire
Misfire
The light may stay on or light intermittently as the DPF regenerates. The engine will be sluggish on acceleration.
Engine surge

Possible Causes :

Rusty exhaust systems, cracked exhaust manifolds or damaged or missing gaskets or donuts will cause air leaks.
An air leak forward of the DPF will change the sensor readings resulting in the code
Defective ECU strategies or components will prevent proper regeneration

Common Misdiagnoses

Exhaust Gas Recirculation System Valve 1 Problem
BBV Sensor Circuit Low Voltage Problem
Transmission Engaged At High Throttle Angle Problem
Cruise Inhibit Control Circuit Problem
TFP Valve Position Switch-Drive Without Drive Ratio Problem

Repair Processes :

Replace the oxygen sensor that is downstream from the catalytic converter on the side of the engine that does not contain cylinder #1. Also, if a oxygen sensor code stating "heater circuit malfunction" the sensor has most probably failed. It should be pretty close to battery voltage (12 volts). If not, then this is the circuit that has the problem. 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.
