    All my gauges are working properly. When the first engine light comes on the boost gauge doesn't work but I can hear that turbo whistling and working fine. It's when that second light comes on that The turbo is still whistling but not like it should be. The mechanics have reset the code twice but it keeps coming on. He thinks that it could be a bad sensor but since the second light comes on I think it's something different and has nothing to do with the boost gauge.

    Clearing codes is something you're supposed to do after the problem's been repaired.
    Do you know what the codes pulled up were, and if they showed up as inactive or inactive? Do you know many counts of each code there were?
    Insite (for Cummins engines) is a very comprehensive and very user-friendly program. If they thought it was a sensor, you can very easily check to see the voltage going to and reading from all those sensors. If they didn't do that, then they should've.

    Well if they did it at the yard you work out of and your company is like a few others who shall remain nameless...
    the mechanics can say they did it, but your lights are telling you different. Losing power? ==vacuum/injectors. Are you having regen prompts? Heck, it could even be something simple as a fuel filter. We had all those issues with the PB we had...to the yard twice...TA once.
    Finally afters weeks of the company trying bubble-gum and baling wire ---Ended up in Denver at Cummins for 4 days. Company paid for a hotel. Got it fixed right. The truck had all those probs I just mentioned. It had over 1/2 million miles; probably ready to be replaced and company hoped it die or sell before they had to pay someone like Cummins.

    They're saying it possibly a turbo but he needs to pull somthing out and make sure it's not stuck. I forget what they call it. I'll find out for sure today. He was leaning again towards the turbo this morning about 5 hours.
