    I recently bought a used 2011 Cascadia with the DD15 motor, no DEF. Anyway, I'm getting a check engine light anytime I accelerate over 65 MPH. Has anyone ever had this or have any idea of what it might be? Truck is running good, no engine performance problems even when light is on. As soon as I back off to 65 mph or less, the light goes out.

    there is nothing wrong with your engine. It's setup that way in Parameters to flash the light if you fly over 65mph. Just go to dealer and ask them to go to "Speed Limits" in Parameters and make that 65 value to 85 or 95 or...

    Thanks mhyn. Had them check and "speed limit" as well as "cruise limit" were already set to 85 mph. However, there was a third speed parameter (not sure which one) that was set to 65 mph. Increased it to 85 mph and problem solved! Thanks again!

    that third parameter's name is ''diagnostic speed limit'' I believe

    Exactly, there is also another parameter to set, if you want to see the MPG, when going over 66 MPH.
