SUBJECT:
FLASH: Engine Systems And Exhaust Aftertreatment Systems Enhancements
OVERVIEW:
This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Engine Control Module
(ECM) with new software.
It is recommended to discuss with the customer any required necessary maintenance as
suggested in the owners manual. Inform the customer the importance of properly
maintaining their vehicle. Possible required maintenance items may include (not limited to)
lube, oil change and filter service, air filter replacement, fuel filter replacement, and
crankcase ventilation filter replacement based on customer use and mileage accumulation.
This bulletin involves:
· Selectively erasing and reprogramming the Engine Control Module (PCM), 2007 -
2010 MY.
· Selectively erasing and reprogramming the Cab Compartment Node (CCN), 2007
& 2008 MY.
· If CCN is updated; provide a Customer Information Sheet explaining the overhead
display messages.
· One of several software changes allows for “Net Zero” and “Net Reduction” which
will cause noticeable changes in idle speeds. Customers should be informed of
these changes. They are explained in DISCUSSION, Step #3.
· Improvements that address erroneous MIL illumination for DTC P0106, P0191,
P2262 and P2299 DTC's, (spelled out in DISCUSSION below).
NUMBER: 18-020-10
GROUP: Vehicle Performance
DATE: June 10, 2010
CUSTOMER INFORMATION SHEET INCLUDED:
Please print the last page of this bulletin for customer reference.
MODELS:
2007 - 2010 (DC) Ram Truck (3500 Cab Chassis)
2008 - 2010 (DM) Ram Truck (4500/5500 Cab Chassis)
NOTE: This bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with a Cummins 6.7L engine (sales
code ETJ).
NOTE: For some 2007 MY vehicles, the ECM flash is addressed in Recall K01, Dated
May, 2010. Where applicable. please use the Recall to update the ECM and
this bulletin to update the CCN software.
DISCUSSION:
Cab chassis trucks equipped with a 6.7L Cummins diesel have a number of software
improvements available. This latest Service Bulletin (SB) will include improvements to
prevent erroneous Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination:
· P000F - Fuel System Over Pressure Relief Valve Activated
· P0087 - Fuel Rail Pressure Too Low
· P0106 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance
· P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance
· P1011 - Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too Low
· P2299 - Brake Pedal Position / Accelerator Pedal Position Incompatible
· P2262 - Turbocharger Boost Pressure Not Detected - Mechanical
Other updates will include the following operational and diagnostic improvements:
1. Stationary DeSoot is now available with this software. This feature works similar to
pick up truck (DH/D1) models.
2. New DTC added for P2563 - Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor
Performance. This DTC indicates diminished variable geometry turbocharger travel,
which is resolved by replacing the turbocharger. Diagnosis and repair procedures for
the DTC have been published in DTC-Based Diagnostics in TechConnect.
3. The latest PCM software includes a new extended idle feature to accommodate the
extended idle times present in some duty cycles. This feature may help to reduce the
accumulation of soot in the exhaust aftertreatment system when the engine is idling for
an extended period of time. Briefly how this feature works:
a. As needed, the engine enters an idling mode which dramatically reduces the rate of
soot accumulation in the diesel particulate filter (called “Net Zero”). Further, under
extended idle periods of 5 minutes or longer, the engine enters a mode which
reduces the amount of soot accumulated in the diesel particulate filter (called “Net
Reduction”). While in these modes, the idle speed increases to 900 RPM for a
period of time. The idle speed may return to normal idle speed and then return to
900 RPM to repeat this cycle during very long idle periods.
b. These modes occur automatically depending on the need to regenerate the DPF as
long as the vehicle is not driven over 20 MPH or operated at high load. If the vehicle
is driven over 20 MPH normal mobile desoot will occur automatically.

4. New scan tool driven fuel system diagnostic tests (same as previously released in the
pick up) now available for cab chassis.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Using the scan tool, determine current software level of the PCM and CCN. Record on
the repair order, for later use, the current PCM and CCN software level part numbers.
Proceed to the next step.
2. Compare the current PCM software level part number with software available in the
scantool. Determine if the current PCM software level part number, recorded in Step
#1, is programmable to a higher level.
3. Is the part number of the current PCM level software (recorded in Step #1) at the latest
level listed in the scan tool?
a. If YES >>> then the PCM DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair.
Record this on the repair order for later reference. Proceed to the next step.
b. If NO >>> then the PCM DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair.
Record this on the repair order for later reference. Proceed to the next step.
4. Is the vehicle a 2007 OR 2008 MY?
a. Yes >>> Proceed to Step #5.
b. No >>> 2009 MY proceed to the REPAIR PROCEDURE as required.
5. Determine if the current CCN module level software part number, that was
recorded earlier in Step #1, is one of the following (or with a higher suffix):
a. 05172187AH (or higher) = 2007 DC (3500).
b. 05172334AG (or higher) = 2008 DC (3500) / DM (3500/4500).
c. 2009 & 2010 MY vehicles came equipped with proper CCN software.
6. Is the part number of the current CCN level software at (or higher) than one of the
software part numbers listed in Step #5?
a. If YES >>> then the CCN DOES NOT require reprogramming as part of this repair.
Record this on the repair order for later reference. Proceed to the REPAIR
PROCEDURE as required.
b. If NO >>> then the CCN DOES require reprogramming as part of this repair.
Record this on the repair order for later reference. Proceed to the REPAIR
PROCEDURE as required.

DIESEL EXHAUST AFTERTREATMENT SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) which is used to clean the
exhaust. The DPF (exhaust filter) will self clean as part of normal vehicle operation. In
some cases, your intervention may be required to allow the self-cleaning process to occur.
WHAT YOU WILL SEE IN THE OVERHEAD DISPLAY
· “ExhaustFilter xx% Full” - Indicates that the DPF is approaching full.
· “Regeneration Required Now” - Indicates you will need to intervene by changing
your driving mode. See Owner Manual.
· “Regeneration in Process” - Indicates the DPF is self-cleaning. Please try to
maintain you current driving condition until regeneration is complete.
· “Regeneration Completed” - DPF self-cleaning is complete.
· “Service Required-See Dealer Now” - Indicated DPF regeneration is not
functioning. Your Check Engine Light (MIL) may come on. Please see dealer.
IMMEDIATE SERVICE IS REQUIRED. Damage to the exhaust system could occur
soon with continued operation.
· “Exhaust Filter FULL - Power Reduced - See Dealer” - Your DPF is full. Engine
power will be reduced to decrease risk of damage. IMMEDIATE SERVICE IS
REQUIRED. Please see dealer immediately. Damage to the exhaust system will
occur with continued operation.
