Abstract
An aftertreatment system comprises a SCR system, an engine out NOx (EONOx) adjustment system and a controller. The controller is configured to instruct the EONOx adjustment system to adjust an EONOx amount between a high EONOx level for a first predetermined time and a low EONOx level for a second predetermined time when the SCR system is in a diagnostic enabling condition. The controller determines a SCR system out NOx (SONOx) amount. The controller determines an efficiency parameter of the SCR system from the SONOx amount when the EONOx amount transitions from the low EONOx level to the high EONOx level and if the efficiency parameter satisfies a predetermined threshold. In response to the efficiency parameter not satisfying the predetermined threshold, the controller determines that the SCR system has failed.
