    My 2012 Cascadia has shown code CAB33 several times and I have replaced a dozen fuses over the past few weeks. Same code again and it wont stay running long when idling and Friday it stopped running while driving. Started right back up... What should I check?

    We had issues on our 2011 & 2012 Coronado SD’s (DD15) with the rectangular fuse/relay box mounted beside the steering column. We never replaced them so I couldn’t tell you if it’s the same box as above. There are very large spade connectors inside that box, under the fuse blocks. They’re not beefy enough in the early years and would lose connection from the main relays. As soon as you pop the fuse/relay blocks out of the lower box, the spades will disconnect and they shouldn’t.

    You might be able to get by if you get to them and “give them a tweak” and put them back together. We always had to replace the spades with the heavier duty version.
