in the FAQ thread I posted all codes possable to every Chrysler/Dodge/jeep/plymouth vehicle.

I havent started on the newer codes for the 6.7L diesel.

drew I have looked at the threads you have posted, thanks by me and i'm sure alot of others.
I have found the codes differ, specifically the codes in the 1000+ range. which is the correct one?? code 1693 turbo charge control circuit malfunction vs. code 1693 dtc detected in ecm or pcm. which one is the correct description?? I havn't a clue, I have read that a 1688 code is your vp is fried....per blue chip diesels website. 1688 on the list you havegave, says metering oil pump stepping motor circuitmalfunction. 1688 on the list I posted, says internal fuel injection pump controller failure.

they do tend to be generations specific. . .and while the codes may be the same, yet have different meanings, you need to know which engine your dealing with as to which code it corresponds to.

I got a P0067the other day and I don't know what it is about. I can't find this on any of the code lists. Anyone seen this before. It's gone now so I'm not worried, just curious.

Default RE: dodge/chrysler/jeep specific trouble codes

yea no kidding.......i wish they could come up with some sort of standard on this stuff. I guess i should have included i have a 2001.5 ctd. the site i pulled this from seems to be pretty decent. from what i have gathered is that codes up to 1000 are a generic system (sae codes) the ones above that are "specific codes". up to a point.

the whole reason behind my digging is i was on a snowmobile trip to laramie wy and the truck was being a pos. ( 2001.5, auto,3.55 gears, the tall tires for stock (not sure what size, about the same as the stock 2003 my brother has on his), juice with attitude(pump wire not tapped).

truck running fine, edge on 3, it has a quirk, (looses power) 4-5 seconds later it is fine, WTH just happend. OK i figured it lost timing for some reason. (fuel pressure fine 10-11 pounds, egt at 800-850, engine temp 185-190, engine vitals fine). down the road a few minutes it happens again, WTH all over again. THEN about 1/2 hr. later fuel pressure warning starts in(5psi), pull over change filter(not very old at all(2 weeks max, wix filter)), no biggee 20 bucks. NO help at all. F%$#^%&%$##. lift pump, that will set me back.

lift pump installed, body isn't supposed to bend like that, but not hard at all to replace. OK good ready to go. bleed system, fire it up, yeeeeaaaaaaa haaaaaaaaaaa were on the road again. THENI have this idea that things just didn't makesence. I shut the truck off, fire it back up....low fuel pressure, WTF, was justrunning 14 lbs for10-15 min.it wouldn't get a prime and keep it,(ie. it would build pressure untill the pump shut off, after that, nothing), bump the starter for the 25 sec. run and no pressure, pump is running).my fix, call the trip, go home and drown in my sorrows, (had to get home first). bleed the system, when it builds pressure, yell at my brother to start it, close loose fittings.WHEW it stays running with pressure (15 lbs at idle) as what is expected. (normally, not by me at this point). WOW 1/2 hr. later it is still going, lets go home.

edge on 3, cruisin' down the road, power just dies(like what it did before), all systems go...no problem with anything. power back after a few seconds.( a few more times like this on the trip home ), i checked everyting, edge back-down(not backing power off),settings, you name it. the only time this wouldNOT happen is with the edge on stock.

checked all sorts of things, way to numerous to list.I do have the service manual down-loadedthanks to someone on this forum, i think 360steve, not sure, but anyway thanks a ton for that, and everything else.

1. the edge is the culprit for the power going away........loosing timing, it will be sent back for warranty work. (6 months old).
2. a vulcan big line kit is on the way(pump relocation). may be over kill, but too much is always good. relocation isreally needed with this pump.

3. 1/2 in.vulcan draw straw is on the way........why feed anything witha 3/8 line?.......i think this is where my problem is. screen plugged up,(does this full or empty). if i'm gonna pull it it will only get better.


codesare:
ecu
p0216=timing circuit malfunction, low fuel pressure, restricted fuel supply.....my thoughts, the timing circuit works on fuel pressure, no pressure=no work. i had a known fuel pressure at 0psi for a split second. is it this or the edge being dumb..........never have this code on edge 0 power.

p0230=fuel pump primary circuit malfunction.....it acted dumb a few times, did the 2 sec. burst and then nothing.(in nutrual, go to park it worked)(i'm in nutrual all the time when the truck is running, auto tranny deal. too many cycles like that????go to park worked fine all the time).

p1689=no cummunication between ecm and injection pump module......????? no idea, i havn't looked to see if the edge interupts this signal.....my thinking is this would cause a p0216 code which the edge does manipulate, or the po216 code would cause this.
pcu
p1693=dtc detected in ecm or pcm.......well no ****.

major sorry for the long winded rant. I know you guys have felt my pain.
since this is sooooo looooong i might as well introduce myself. Keith, Sioux Falls SD, truck isa pos at the time(would not even consider another brand of diesel, or truck, well mabe a cat). been a dodge boy all my life (38years)(all others are good but dodge is the best,hahaha). drive truck for a living (kenworth, what else is there, hahaha). used to be a specalist on cat engines(ie. my love for cats). maybe the old man brainwashed me???.....nope he loves the green ones(detroit).

thanks for listening. any ideas, comments, or telling me im backwards is welcomed.

if you got that 216 and 1693 on your VP44 then it just committed suiside. the lift pump failed so there was no fuel going to the VP, thus it wasnt being cooled or lubed and basicaly overheated, ripped the diaphram and probably welded the distributer.

that p0067 says air assisted injector control circuit high..... what that means or what it applies to i have no idea.

drew i know the 0216 is one of the kill codes on the vp.... timing faliure. the lift pump did fail........(maybe???). there was 0psi for only a spit second, for the most part it was at 4-5psi. (under load, going down the interstate, fuel pressure dropped i was backing off the throttle,
arms were going off at 5 psi.

it also went another 200 miles with-out a glitch, with the edge OFF.
