    Lmao a thing that won't let me over 1000 rpm. I want my 379 back bad but that ship has sailed. In other news I have tricked the truck to let me go 50 mph soon 200 miles at 50 mph yeah.

    My dad got up under this piece of rolling #### and unplugged speed sensor so it's limited to 1000 rpm but hey 50 is better than 0.

    Depends what the code is, but sometimes you can do an SCR reset and clear the code. This will reset the countdown timer until it derates again, but somethings it's enough to get you home or to a better shop. You need Insite for this.

    Nope it was a mechanic from a shop across the street from the truck stop. He said that i was showing a nox2 error code thing and said it would be monday. So we called the shop mechanic and he said if you can crawl under unplug the speed sensor and see if u can bring it so we did 62 more miles left at 50 mph with that GOD DA MN BEEP FOR THE SYSTEM IVE DONE 200 MILES OF THIS STUPID THING.

    Think of all the fuel ,and time, plus $. Sending out replacement trucks, wreckers towing them, regenerating at high rpm, wasting more fuel and $..sitting in motels.

    Didn't ask for a Def truck but company truck. I wish we could go back to the old company they had 05,06 Petes with 550 Cats and 18 speeds and man that helped pulling milk when your load in the high 90s. We've weighe'd over 100k before.
