    Been having problems with our TK SB3 shutting down on code 18, it runs fine for about 48hr before it throws the code and shuts down, temp reads around 195/200.

    Been to ThermoKing 3 time replaced belts,anti freeze flush thermostat, sensor, connections and condenser cleaned.

    Has anyone else had this experienced this with an SB3

    Nothing still throwing code 18 around the 48 hrs mark, runs fine in the 195/200 degree range then she will jump to 210 and the code kicks in and shuts down.

    Doesn't matter if its -10 or 28 degree load. I'm thinking. It the ecm.
