Default RE: HELP CHECK GAUGES LIGHT

Well I have an appointment at my local dealership (not the one I purchased the truck at) at 9:30 Monday morning. I'll see what they can do. I hope they can fix the problem. I am quite fond of this truck already. Had a line x sprayed in it today. Hope I'm not investing more money in a truck that is going to be a problem. I checked the owner's manual that comes with the truck. There is not a cel, just a check gauges light. I'll keep ya'll posted.

Thanks,
Stephen

That's the chassis cab. It's slightly de-rated.

Got the truck back this afternoon no check gauges light. The service dept. said something about a service bulletin and that he had to flash the computer (whatever that means). Thanks for everyone's input.

Horespower doesn't mean that much with a diesel. Torque is where the work gets done!

That just means he took his clothes off in front of your CTD and scared it into werkin!

Or that he used a Star Scan tool to load a new program into your CTD's ECM (main computer).
