In the highly regulated automotive industry that we are living in, it is harder for fleet operators to keep in line with the laws and reduce their emissions. The use of AdBlue is the most widely adopted solution to meet Euro 6 and soon to be Euro 7. AdBlue is a urea-based fluid used in diesel engines to neutralise harmful nitrogen oxide emissions. Managing the AdBlue system can be time-consuming and expensive in the long run. AdBlue Software Programming can help to change this and offer a lot of benefits to fleet operators.
What is AdBlue Software Programming?
AdBlue Software Programming involves an engineer flashing new, custom software into the ECU which stops the vehicle going into limp mode for any AdBlue faults and NOX sensor problems. It also prevents any non-engine starting situations. This service is completely legal as there are no black boxes and no fuses removed. It allows the AdBlue system to run and operate but it means you don’t have to deal with the potentially frequent issues. It also prevents the AdBlue warning light from turning on.
Key Benefits for Fleet Operators
1. No more AdBlue Warning light
One of the main benefits of AdBlue Software Programming is that you will no longer have the experience the AdBlue warning light turning on. This is something that bothers a lot of people as it can be frequent in most cases. So, with this service, our engineer can custom write the new software and flash it into the ECU and this stops the warning light from being able to show and therefore erasing the worry that some people face when they see this light.
2. No limp mode or non-engine starting situations.
When one of our engineers are writing the new software, another thing that can be included is that the vehicle won’t go into limp mode and that it also won’t not start. This is very important for fleet operators specifically as it is crucial that their vehicles are out on the road driving as that is their job. If there is the possibility of the engine not starting or going into limp mode, this can cost the operators a lot of time, money and even jobs.
3. It is legal.
AdBlue Software Programming is a legal service in the UK. This is because the AdBlue system will still be running, and no black boxes have been used and so you won’t face any fines if you choose to have this service done.
Conclusion
For Fleet Operators, modifying the AdBlue system through custom software programming is a smart choice. As well as complying with emissions standards, it offers huge benefits such as reduced costs, enhanced reliability, improved performance, and lower maintenance. As this industry is really based on efficiency and compliance, taking the steps to improve the SCR and AdBlue system is very forward-thinking. Keeping the fleet running smoothly is both meeting today’s regulations but also preparing for tomorrows challenges.
