Trouble Codes for a sick truck

When I checked the codes it is showing me the following:
P PCU
P 0500
P 1693

P ECU
P 1693
P 0216
I found the 0500 codes at tech support, but not the 1693 or the 0216.
What are these codes and what do these do?

From what I have learned here the 1693 and 0216 are the VP44 death codes.....
Do a search on these numbers and you will get a lot of info......

0500 is nothing to worry about,your engine speed was too high without moving ...But 0216 is another thing! get ready to change your injection pump

yup 1693 is just a companion code which tells you there is a code stored there.

the 0216 means the injector pump is on it way south. not a cheap fix...save your pennies, looking at about $1k for parts, and at least a few hundred for labor unless you are an experience mechanic that wants to tackle it yourself
