P24C8
Particulate Matter Sensor Temperature Circuit Low
Same as P24C6 with the signal voltage below the plausible range. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
