    I have a 08 Columbia with a S60 DDEC VI, the barometric pressure sensor is in the ECM, and can’t be bypassed with the resistor.

    Is there a kit for this? I see DD15 kits but not a S60 DDEC VI delete kits.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Do you mean barometric pressure sensor?

    That’s what Detroit Diesel Said and we checked all over. No sensor anywhere near the intake manifold or wiring harness.

    So we are stuck trying to figure out why the truck is sputtering while the egr plugged in and runs fine when not plugged in.

    Decided to bypass egr with resistors but found out it’s a DDEC 6.

    Is your engine a 12.7 or 14?
    Do you have a flat air filter?

    I don't think you have a ddec 6. Is your ecm silver. I think you have a ddec v.
    Ddec 5, should have a baro sensor at the back of intake manifold, on the bottom of it. Follow the hotness. It is a flat black square, unhook it, for the resistor trick for high alt mode.
     
    25(2)+2 Thanks this.

    Nope not there,

    Here’s a funny thing I found.

    Info on visor says 475 hp but engine stamp says 515hp

    Detroit Diesel said the SN on the engine is for a DDEC6
