Usually safe to drive short distances, but the fault will not clear itself and can worsen or fail an emissions test.
NH3 Sensor Supply Voltage Circuit High
This code is in our catalogue but has not yet been through editorial review, so the guidance below is limited to what our structured data supports. We publish deeper diagnostic content only after a code has been reviewed — here is why.
The NH3 slip sensor supply voltage rises above the upper limit. Either the supply is shorted to battery voltage or an internal regulator in the dosing module has failed open. The sensor electronics may be damaged if the condition persists, so the ECM disables the input.
A trouble code records what a control module measured. It does not identify which part failed. Test before replacing anything.

| # | Cause | How often | Component |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Supply line shorted to battery voltage | Very common | — |
| 2 | Failed voltage regulator in the dosing module | Common | — |
| 3 | Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance | Occasional | — |
Ordering reflects how often each cause is responsible in general, not a probability for your vehicle. Confirm by testing.
