DTR's 'Go to Guy'
You need to go back to the dealer and have them perform this tsb. It is a reflash for the computer. This isn't the entire tsb, but has the pertanant info. You must have a 6.7l . Probably a late 06 that actually conforms to 07 model years? Just guessing. These codes should not show up in a 5.9l .
SOFTWARE.
SUBJECT:
Ram Truck 3500 Cab & Chassis - Excessive Soot Accumulation In Exhaust, PCM May Not Reprogram, And Other Engine System Enhancements
OVERVIEW:
This bulletin involves selectively erasing and reprogramming the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM) with “bootloader” software and application software.
CAUTION: A special “bootloader” software with special reprogramming (flash)
procedures must be installed in the PCM before the application software.
Once the “bootloader” software has been successfully installed (flashed)
in the PCM, then the application software can be reprogrammed (flashed)
into the PCM.
MODELS:
2007 (DC) Ram Truck (3500 Cab & Chassis)
NOTE: This bulletin applies to Ram Truck 3500 Cab & Chassis vehicles equipped with 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (sales code ETJ).
SYMPTOM/CONDITION: The vehicle operator and/or technician may experience one or more of the following conditions and/or enhancements:
1. The technician may not be able to reprogram (flash) the PCM with new
application software.
NUMBER: 18-009-07 REV. B
GROUP: Vehicle Performance
DATE: July 13, 2007
2. After extensive idling of the vehicle engine or if an intake air leak is present, the vehicle operator may experience a MIL illumination and/or an Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) message alert due to one or more of the following DTC's:
a. P1451 - Diesel Particulate Filter System Performance.
b. P2463 - Diesel Particulate Filter - Soot Accumulation.
c. P242F - Diesel Particulate Filter Restriction - Ash Accumulation.
3. The vehicle operator may experience a MIL illumination due to one of the following
DTC's:
a. P0101 - Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor Performance.
b. P0106 - Boost Pressure Sensor Rationality.
c. P0191 - Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Performance.
4. Improved Water-In-Fuel (WIF) alert. To improve awareness that water has been
detected in the fuel system, the vehicle operator will be alerted to a five (5) chime alert
versus a single (1) chime alert.
DIAGNOSIS:
1. Connect the StarSCAN® to the vehicle Diagnostic Link Connector (DLC).
2. From the “Home” menu, select:
a. “ECU View”.
b. “PCM Powertrain Control Module”.
c. “View DTC's”.
3. Record DTC's that are present in the PCM.
4. Is DTC P242F present?
a. If YES >>> then STOP. Contact STAR for additional technical assistance.
b. If NO >>> then proceed to the next step.
5. Are either (or both) DTC P1451 or P2463 present?
a. If YES >>> then Section C - Exhaust System Aftertreatment Regeneration must be
performed AFTER Sections A and B (reprogramming the PCM for bootloader and
application software) of the Repair Procedure have been completed. Read the
following Cautions and Notes, then proceed to Section A of the Repair Procedure.
b. If NO >>> then Section C - Exhaust System Aftertreatment Regeneration should
NOT be performed. Read the following Cautions and Notes, then perform only
Sections A and B of the Repair Procedure.
CAUTION: Before the application software can be reprogrammed (flashed) into the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM), the PCM must first be reprogrammed
(flashed) with “bootloader” software. Failure to reprogram the PCM with
the “bootloader” software first, may cause the process of reprogramming
the PCM with the application software to fail. The PCM “bootloader”
software special flash procedures must be followed closely to prevent
damage to the PCM.
CAUTION: The Repair Procedure involves a special and different reprogramming
(flash) procedure for “bootloader” software. Follow the Repair Procedure
steps. When performing the “bootloader” section of the Repair
Procedure DO NOT interrupt the PCM reprogramming session. This
special PCM “bootloader” software reprogramming session does not
support “abort - recovery” mode. If “bootloader” software
reprogramming is interrupted the PCM will be permanently disabled, and
will require replacement.
18-009-07 REV. B -2-
NOTE: The Repair Procedure should NOT be performed using the StarMOBILE™ in
its STANDALONE mode. Use the StarSCAN® to perform the entire Repair
Procedure.
NOTE: Before performing this Repair Procedure, the operating software in the
StarSCAN® must be programmed with software release level 8.01 or higher.
The software release level is visible in the blue header at the top of the
StarSCAN® screen.
PARTS REQUIRED:
Qty. Part No. Description
1 04275086AB Label, Authorized Modification
DSLFUELS Fuel Allowance (4 gallon maximum) - Allowed only if an
exhaust system manual aftertreatment regeneration is
required.
