Your DEF level sensor is shot. It will go out again shortly. IF your truck is under warranty you will be done truckin indefinitely. My company has four 2020’s that have been parked for three months. There are NO sensors available and PACCAR will not allow a non OEM aftermarket sensor on the truck. It will VOID the warranty.
It’s a colossal ‘effin mess and I’m just lucky my company had a somewhat new spare truck available for me to use.
Ever get derated to 5 mph because of no DEF when your def tank is full?

Probably that def quality sensor. I’m hearing from drivers and mechanics that it goes bad usually because we over fill the def tank. Pump until the first click and stop don’t add until you see liquid coming back up.
Dna Mach Thanks this. -

I hate DEF! We rarely broke down back in the pre def days. I’d never been on a tow truck until DEF BS put me on one. I’ve ridden the hook about 10 times in the last decade. This is the first time I’ve ever broke down indefinitely though with no idea when the part will arrive.Roberts450 Thanks this. -
But, but….
Karen might see a puff of black smoke and get offended. God knows we wouldn’t want that.Roberts450 and Dna Mach Thank this. -

Your company representative thinks you screwed it up?
I’d want an apology and $2500 for blaming me for something I didn’t do.
Then I’d be looking for a new company.
