    Had a check engine light pop up this morning. I'm in a 2015 Freightliner with a Mercedes Benz engine. The dash says

    ENG 1
    SPN 102
    FAIL 18
    FAULT 1

    No sure of the correct way to post this. Thanks

    SPN 102 is for the boost sensor. FMI 18 means that boost pressure is too low. Do you have any leaks in the CAC or CAC hoses? You can check the plugs at the boost and barometric pressure sensors, but I doubt you find corrosion on a new truck. You may get lucky and find one that wasn't seated good. After that is laptop diagnosing with DDDL.

    On a 2015, you still have warranty, so I would bring it to a dealer if you don't find something obvious.

    I have a 2016 FL Cascadia DD15 with a FL Warrty and that code ENG2 SPN 102 FMI 18 is constantly popping up even after the dealership says it’s fixed. It is always when I leave and around 100 miles into my trip the same code pops up. I’ve had the DOC cleaned which is what they said was wrong at one dealership, I had the turbo checked and they said they did work on it and it was fixed, then I took it to another one and they fixed what was the CAC had two major leaks at the clamps and boost hoses
    Correction:
    Engine / Air Intake / Induction / Replace boost hoses and clamps
    0411 BLUE SILICONE HOSE CLAMP CAC HOSE 0425 FREIGHTLINER
    and after I left and 93 miles driving bobtail the same code popped up yet again!!!
    Same code pops up but no one seems to be able to fix it and instead fixes other things and clears the code. This is the only issue I have with the truck...two years and several stops at different FL dealerships and still nothing but wastes time and staying at home making mo money.
