    2016 Automatic Cascadia DD15 engine.
    Truck was losing power. Multiple times to the mechanic. Here is what has been done so far:
    1-Replaced and programmed new CPC
    2- Replaced clutch
    3- Replaced engine air filter
    4- Replaced Samcab
    Problem persisted until Samcab was replaced. After that, truck worked perfectly for about a week. Just got word that same problem is happening. When this happens a beeping noise occurs, then check engine lights come up on dash, truck goes into manual and loses power. Happens when the truck is bobtailing AND has trailers. Speedometer stops working. PLEASE HELP!
    Two yellow check engine lights (one says CHECK)
    Red BRAKE light
    ABS light

    You have a wiring issue. Most likely spot is harness just above air compressor where it is zip tied to metal bracket. Stop throwing parts/labor ($$$) at it and find a TECHNICIAN who knows how to trouble shoot properly.

    My truck would shut down while going down the road. Changed the PD module on firewall near steering column and problem went away.
