Hey...just thinnkin out loud. The trailer lights were never affected and there was allot of miles traveled at night. That was the problem with the semi before. Could that mean something or are the lights grounded through the truck electrical system?

Ya know sumpin...I believe your right. Have pulled this RV for 3 years puttin up with this headache. Finally got brave enough to say somethin. Went through this grounding problem years ago with a semi. This RV has somethin the old one didn't have which is a plastic disc between the trailer...

I have a troubleshooting question for the factory equipped brake controller on a 2008 F-250 Super Duty 6.4LPulling a 36' 5th wheel RV 2000 miles w/ nothing but trailer braking consistency problems. When working the brakes are smooth and nice. Might go a few hours at a time ok. Would throw a...

Thanks for the code meanings. I've dealt w/ECU codes before which stood for Engine Control Unit in a John Deere tractor but knew that couldn't be what this ECU meant and is why I asked. DTC was a new one.Knowing the radio would probably be replaced I visited Audio+ yesterday, black Friday...

Any suggestions would be appreciated. And thank you so much for your help. Happy Thanksgiving!

It reprogramming something I can do or does this need done at a dealership. Also not sure DTC and ECU stand for. If the complete radio unit is likely to be replaced for $500 I may look to the salvage yards or just install a complete aftermarket system. Not sure what to do at this point. Very...

Sorry if this is done twice. Don't see the other went through.The test went as you said it would. Preset button 1 showed "Self Fail" Menu up showed "B1342 ECU" Menu up showed "B2477 Config" Preset button 2/eject button did not clear the above codes.Preset button 5, Display Test, showed...

Thank you sir. I will try going through the test's over the weekend and see what remains, if anything. Thanks again

Hello,My truck is a 2008 F-250 Lariat 6.4 diesel. My question regards some electrical problems involving mainly the radio. First the radio works fine, all buttons function properly, the display is normal and plays CD's fine. The problem is that the back lighting does not work nor does the...

Very interesting. I had wondered what the third, not sensor like looking, item was around the DPF / Cat which required mounting in the new pipe along with the two temp sensors. They are all located in the same approx. location as when the DPF and Cat were in place. The replacement pipe came...

So it's the monitoring of air temps. which trigger the regeneration process? I noticed that sensors are fore and aft of the dpf (when it was still on the truck) and aft of each cylinder bank. So theres a massive amount of temp. comparison going on which determines regeneration...maybe?? And...

The truck is an 08 F-250 running an SCT programmer with the DPF / Cat delete. I'm told the truck has oxygen sensors and also told Ford did not use them on diesels until 2010 which would be the 6.7 engine. The reason for asking is I preparing to add an HHO generator to my 6.4, have used one on a...

Well...so much for that. Always looking for ways to lessen the operating cost. Will keep looking and asking. If you guys can think of any that have come and gone over the years let me know so I won't wast any of mine and your time. Thanks again.

Thanks for the reply. Glad I asked this group of those most in the know. Just curious what one could expect to happen to the engine by doing this. The most compelling came from a fleet operator (Freightliners) who had been mixing for about 20 years and only stopped about a year ago due to the...

Hello,I'm an owner of a 2008 6.4L Power Stroke. I have installed an SCT programer and the DPF/cat delete. Runs great and better mileage. Not what expected but ok. Been reading about mixing used motor oil with diesel fuel. All research points to success mixing the two provided it's done...
