2002 7.3 shuts off while driving
I have a 2002 7.3.... Was driving today and the truck shut off, motor stills runs but I have no pedal or gauges. Will start but I still have no pedal or gauges.... Let it sit for a hour and everything was fine for about 30 minutes and it done it again. This time, I cant get and gauges or pedal after 3 hours of sitting..... :argh:
|
check fuse No. 19. center row, 8th one down. it's a ten amp. if it blows it again, unplug the fuel bowl heater.
|
Tried the 19th fuse...it is a 10 amp on the bottom, wasn't blown replaced anyways and still no gauges or pedal when start
---AutoMerged DoublePost--- I looked up a diagram of my fuse panel under the dash and it doesn't match anything I've seen.... :argh: |
are you sure you got the right one. this is going on to my buddies pickup and it blew that fuse. no throttle respose, and no gauges.
|
I looked on the cover and and matched the 19th fuse to it..... I also checked every fuse, we are talking about the fuse panel under the steering column correct?
|
yes. do you have any way to pull codes? the fuse is one up from th bottom in the center row.
|
Ok, that is the correct fuse. The airbag light was flashing a code when I started the truck(has been for awhile) and then staying on. I have no way to get the code though...
|
and the fuse is ok? did you rplace it any ways? do you know any one with a super chip programmer? a auto zone scanner will not work.
|
The fuse was fine, I did replace it. I don't know anyone with a programmer, I was told it is a bad shifter or gas pedal??? I bought this truck used and it has had some stuff done to it so no one wants to mess with it. I believe they said it has a TC Tuner on it, I have a knob on the dash to adjust the turbo(I never touch it though). I'm at a loss, never had a diesel til I bought this one 4 months ago.....
|
TC tuner? turbo adjuster? never heard of those. mybe it has a chip on it... look under the dash at your PCM. if there are wires coming off the back then it has a chip.
|
I might have the name wrong, the knob can adjust the turbo(25%, high idle, 50%, and 75%) they showed me how it worked but I have left at the setting they had it.
|
that's a chip. just a 4 position. probably 25% over stock, 50% over stock, and 75% over stock. OR 25, 50, and 75 HP
|
Why would the airbag light flash?
|
not sure. has the vehicle been in any wrecks? even tho it's hard to get the air bags on these to go off.
|
thats why i keep my ol superchip cortex around.. owning 6 7.3s, it comes in handy for these things.. i had a similar thing happen with one. check all of your wiring coming out of your pcm. i had a wire go back and thats all it was
|
Changed fuse #45 and so far it has fixed it....the fuse had some corrosion on it but wasnt broke....
