2004 Common Rail Help!!!!Could Use Some Really Good Ideas And Help Here????? Stumped
Well sorry if this is a long one but good i am sick of edge ok its been 1 year since the last one was replaced do to shutting down the truck.
Well first I have a 2004 1/2 Ram cummins with the 325 610 motor. It is the 6-speed manual also.
I am going to start from the begining of the day.
I drove to work left truck idle for 20 min max then jumped back in to take it to a local garage just to have the front suspension and steering looked at and rotate the tires.
Well they call me when its done saying the truck woulkd not trun off with the turbo timmmer and they even hit the brake to shut it down like edge says to do to stop right away.
And they had a stange thing go on that the lights would flicker on and off only when the key was in the off position and the motor was shut down.
Well i went to pick the truck up and it was not doing any of that so i drove it the 4 miles back to the shop. and the exhaust temps were 380 and i have the egt set to shut down at 310 well as soon as i turned the key off and i was not on the brake it truned off i was like what well the turbo timmer is not working in my truck under min or egt setting so thats out. So then i took the keys out of the truck pissed off. I then seen the head lights start acked up like they said. all i am thinking is what did they do at the garage so i called them they say they didnt do anything.
This is the good part i called edge they say there computer does not haver anything to do with the headlights well i said i think so and he was getting really really argumental and i said look the light stop as soon as i unplug the juice box well yes the lights stop doing that so i drove the truck home and removed the box one more time disconneted all batterys and let it sit for a half hr.
I then istalled the edge juice back in and pluged it in and hooked the battery up and it stated again flickering of the markers.
I heard a clicking sound and went into the fuse pannel and i unhooked the 2 yellow wires wich i was told are the trubo cool down mod wires and the lights stoped as soon as the one wire the fuse # 28 and the 35 fuse # does not cause any of the problems the red is the hot for the box and that # is 26
So what do u all think i need some serious help here i have the edge all out of the truck and it does not do any of this. And the truck runs great nice and smooth just down on power now
But this is a strange one. And edge says no way is it there system well heeck the truck is fine and the turbo timer is shot in my book so i dont know what to do?
Anyone ever here of this or like this.
O and the truck only has 5inch stacks the edge thats out now and a bd cold air intake and fass 150/150 thats all

where is the ground for the box at? i'd run it straight to the battery along with the power wire for the edge. we did that on a friends 98 1/2 and it cured alot of funky problems he was having with it...

hmmmm i've never installed one on a commonrail before so i'm not sure where all the hookups go. hopefully there will be someone on here that has been there done that before..... we went through 2 edge boxes on that 98.5 before we got one that worked

i'd call the person you bought it through and see if they might have a contact inside Edge. when i had a problem with the one we got i bought it through Pure Diesel Power (sponsors here) and Garrett got on a conference call with me and edge and we got it straightened out. maybe your salesperson will help you out.
