A scantool or diagnostic software with enhanced diagnostic features is ideal when troubleshooting 6. Blue smoke - Blue smoke indicates that engine oil is being burned in the combustion chamber. This can happen for multiple reasons and a mechanic needs to diagnose the specific cause for this code to be triggered in your situation. Is the resistance less than 10 ohms? The camshaft position sensor senses the retraction of camshaft intake to identify a particular cylinder. P0261 - P0280, all injector codes An injector code does not always indicate that an injector is bad. If the temperature difference exceeds this by a wide margin, the oil cooler is likely clogged.
All of a sudden one day pulling into the driveway it randomly shutoff. A weak injector will not contribute as much as a strong injector and thus engine rpm will decrease after that injector is fired.

Call us at with any questions you may have about your diesel. Gray smoke - Gray smoke is the result of oil burning in the exhaust system. There is no sign of abuse.

Cycle ignition off, then on. He said the truck was running in his driveway and it just took to banging. The change in the magnetic field cause the voltage from the sensor to change. Coolant blowing out of the degas bottle is a sign that the oil cooler has failed.
If lower voltage reading is 0. Is the resistance greater than 100k ohms? Is resistance less than 5 ohms? We are perplexed about it. This list has been updated to includes Powerstroke diesel diagnostic trouble codes. Running an engine with excessive water in the fuel may damage injectors. Is the resistance less than 10 ohms? The emissions systems on them work very well.
We usually see the broken parts on the back. These codes are generally triggered by a long crank condition. I did a few searches before posting and saw a writeup about replacing the harness but i'm not sure we are talking about the same one as there wasn't much information about the shielding. I read in one of the bulletins from Ford that it takes 93 6. Measure the resistance between the K72E 5-volt supply circuit and the K53 signal circuit of the sensor.
If code returns after cleaning, valve may have electrical issue and should be replaced. This site may, at times, run advertising banners or text link ads from entities mentioned on these pages.

I was thinking that has to be a loose connecting rod, but when we pulled the oil pump there was no metal in the oil or oil filters. An scantool or diagnostic software with enhanced functionality is required for many of the operations listed below; a typical code reader will not suffice.
The crankshaft sensor should also be checked during the diagnostic checks for any problems that could cause the code to be received. What does the code mean? I have never seen this before even on the trucks that have been heavily modified with a lot of power. If rpm drops significantly for one or more injectors, they should be replaced. What causes the P0341 code? It actually drove off of the wrecker and into the shop but it made a terrible racket. YourMechanic offers certified mobile mechanics who will come to your home or office to diagnose and repair your vehicle.
Verify fuel quality, drain fuel-water separator - Drain the frame mounted fuel-water separator and check for excessive water in the fuel. Now today it randomly throws P0341 - Camshaft sensor out of range. The odds that both sensors fail simultaneously is slim-to-none, especially considering failures of either sensor are not entirely common to 6. Some of Fords own diagnostic info is confusing on the relationship between the cam and crank sensors so I think you're right to be suspicious about what the real fault may be. The manufacturer's names or trademarks used herein are referenced solely for identification purposes and are not intended by superdutypsd. P0336 Ford Description The Crankshaft Position Sensor also known as the crank position sensor is an electronic device used in an engine to record the rate at which the crankshaft is spinning.
If you fall under this category, ignore and clear the codes. They should both read ~ 14. That is what we have seen in the past. The man took great care of it. Neither are cheap or easy to get to but I'd rather fix it once. You get a harmonic and you can generally feel it.
