mt45 5.9 cummins engin check codes
Dear Bombers,
I've recently bought an MT45 (X-FedEx) truck. I am losing power at top speed, then I need to down shift and build up RPMs and it runs fine for a while. Well it has a check engine button that gives flashing light codes (two number codes). Please does anybody have a list of these codes.
Thanks Jimmy

The retrieval of codes does not constitute an engine diagnosis. However, there are some codes that usually indicate a defective injection pump. A current P1688 always means that the pump is bad, there is no further diagnosis required. Code P0216 is probably the most common code for VP-44 Pumps. If transfer pump pressure has been checked and is O.K., the injection pump is defective. Other codes that are less common are P0180, P0181, P0215, P0251, P0252, P0253, P0254, P0370, P1287, P1689 and P1690. These codes USUALLY, but not always indicate a defective pump. There are wiring and power checks to be performed if these codes are present. These codes relate to Dodge pickups only, and are not for any other ISB application.
