    Truck starts and runs well but when sufficiently warmed up, crankcase sensor reports and shuts down the engine. I have had the truck serviced recently and changed the crankcase sensor and the oil pressure sensor - no change. What are the possible causes, any pointers?

    first of all check crancase vent tubes, if they are ok I sugest bad crankcase sensor ore bad wiring. Usually bad sensor, spring inside it goes weak and it reads more pressure.

    really U can disconnect this sensor and ignore fault code, but if crankcase vent is clogged u may get valve cover blown)))

    Will check wiring - replaced oil pressure sensor, crankcase sensor, put in new oil pump, checked bearings as well. It has to be an electrical fault, it's reporting crankcase pressure, oil pressure and lack of oil. Will have harness checked. Thanks Pablo.
