I have 6 codes throw and other problems please help
 
How it goin i have a 2000 black crew cab 4x4 with these mods
TS 6pos chip
5in exhaust turbo back
intake

now first off it throws these codes
1670
1211
0237
0541
1107
0718
And on the other note i have had this money pit for about 2+yrs now and i dont think it has ran right since i bought it , the truck was stuggling at low rpms kinda like a shutter and was told it was the tranny so took and had tranny guy check it out he said was the torque converter shutter so i had a good built tranny with billet torque converter put in and when i got the truck back quess what same problem so anyway took it back and he replaced #8 injector got little better but it is still very noticeable especially when in O/D at low rps

Also my truck has a boost guage just put it in and with stock setting only 5-8 and it took forever to get there so i started doing free mods like close the waste plug the red line still no most i can get is 15 and i relly have to get on in race mode to do that and still i dont feel like it just up there like it should please help thanks

you DEFFINATELY have an issue. did the tranny guy say anything about soot around the uppipes? maybe a torn boot? you should be able to get better than 15lbs out of that thing.

Kyle_KleinSS 06-17-2010 02:51 AM

Yea check for a boost leak. Im sure someone else will chime in. The 1211 is an oil code not sure on the other I have to look them up

smallblock 06-17-2010 07:49 AM

i checked for a boost leak and the v-clap on the exhaust side of the turbo was loose and i tightened it up also after driving the truck i pulled one of the vacum lines and it seem to be holding vacum good and after i tightened the v clamp it only gave me like a pound or 2 more of boost and like i said it doesnt climb there as fast as it should

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

the tranny guy never said anything about soot around the uppies what does it mean

moose99ps 06-17-2010 06:22 PM

it means the donuts on your uppipes are bad and is a bad leak cuasing low boost numbers. diesels dont produce vacuum and vacuum made is made with a vacuum pump and nothing on these motors use vacuum so what are you refering to?

smallblock 06-17-2010 08:32 PM

where do i look for the uppipes at were are they at and by vacum i meant boost

moose99ps 06-17-2010 09:03 PM

ok get under your truck and find where the back of the manifolds are, take a flashlight and shine it up behind the motor, you will see the pipes (one on each side of the transmission) they go up to the turbo collector, or the baby butt as some call it. at that collector and at the manifolds there are flanges with bolts and gaskets, these gaskets are common to fail, you will see black soot if they have failed. you said the vband clamp was loose at the turbo? was it the one on the exhaust or boost side?

0541- Manifold intake air heater circuit failure Manifold intake air heater circuit failure= Relay failure, open/short circuit Relay failure, short circuit

1107- Dual Alternator upper fault (monitor) Dual alternator lower fault (control) Dual alternator lower circuit malf. (control) Dual alternator BATT lamp ckt. malf.= Circuit failure, alternator failure, PCM Circuit failure, alternator failure, PCM Circuit failure, alternator failure, PCM Open/short circuit, lamp, fuse, PCM

it was loose on the exhaust side and i tightened it up

I think there's a lot you should check out. I'll type it out when I'm not on my phone.

This one causes some concern. I'd clear the codes, drive it and see if it pops back up.
1211- ICP pressure above/below desired= IPR valve, grounded IPR circuit, high pressure oil leak
Normal for a tuned truck, but you may want to check your ICP. Or clear the code and see if it comes back with light driving.
0237- Turbo boost sensor A circuit low input Turbo boost sensor A circuit high input= Circuit open, short to ground, MAP sensor Circuit short to power, MAP sensor
Check your map line. If the line or the sensor is broken, your truck will not fuel, because it will not see boost. That could be the main issue at hand.
0541- Manifold intake air heater circuit failure Manifold intake air heater circuit failure= Relay failure, open/short circuit Relay failure, short circuit
This is most likely a shorted/broken AIH, no big deal.

1107- Dual Alternator upper fault (monitor) Dual alternator lower fault (control) Dual alternator lower circuit malf. (control) Dual alternator BATT lamp ckt. malf.= Circuit failure, alternator failure, PCM Circuit failure, alternator failure, PCM Circuit failure, alternator failure, PCM Open/short circuit, lamp, fuse, PCM
Blown fuse??? Something's up with this one...
0718- TSS sensor circuit malfunction fault TSS intermittent failure Noisey TSS= Short/ open circuit, sensor, PCM Short/ open circuit, sensor, PCM Erratic signal, sensor, int. circuit
This one may be related to the 1107, both cause me concern. Hopefully you don't have any PCM problems. Clear the codes, if they come back, it's a real issue.

Concerns in red!
Good luck. Let me know what happens!

My truck used to show the 1670 when I put the dp tuner on it but my buddy is a Ford tech he said it was no big deal. He said see if it goes away so far I dont think it is there the light never comes on anymore

smallblock 06-18-2010 04:51 PM

okay cleared all the codes and discoverd a boost fooler that had a bad wire we repaired it and went and drove the truck for about 30 mins it makes 15psi wide open and under 10 just crusin around and its the same with or without the boost fooler we looked at the uppies and didnt see any major leaks were would the leak be coming from please help thanks

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

i looked for a leak and only thing i could find was in passenger side of the intercooler there was some black soot like maybe it had been leaking but no way to really feel and tell if that was really it

theSLEEPER 06-18-2010 05:16 PM

That's not soot. That's just oil and dust from your CCV.

Kyle_KleinSS 06-19-2010 12:15 AM

What kind of boost fooler had a wire? Its usually just a replacement map line

theres a way to ground something and fool it into thinking its only seeing so much boost.

Zener diode. Never used it, but heard it works.

Kyle_KleinSS 06-19-2010 11:34 AM

I have the diode in mine it works good but its no wires. It just looks like a resistor or something. There is no wires coming off it. You put each end into a certain wire in the map line. If he has the diode maybe someone put it on the wrong wires

smallblock 06-19-2010 07:41 PM

it is a replacement map line the old map line plugs into it and it plugs into the map its has four wires on it and one of them is yellow and its caped off

Kyle_KleinSS 06-20-2010 02:34 AM

I would ditch that thing and get a nice one from itp diesel or something. That might be half of your problem
