communication failure. common whenever other issues are happening. never a stand alone code
Well, that's a story in itself. Truck is in local dealership now. Major hoop jumping. Am now certified expert at hoop jumping. Will expand on story when I get it back.dieselbeef":1hpyh7qv said:cowpoke did ya ever get this sorted?? wonderin what it ended up bein
You nailed it. Lift pump not lifting, starved the injector pump. Extended warranty company finally, and I repeat finally, decided to cover it. After about 10 hoops. I called the dealer where I bought it, and I guess they had to put the screws to the ewc. Pays to buy trucks at a place that sells a s load of trucks...DiamondSCattleCo":31mdoudq said:CowpokeJ":31mdoudq said:If the injection pump was bad would I have a continuous problem?
Usually, but not always. Sometimes the electronics will only act up on high humidity days. Other days, only when the moon is in the proper phase, you jump up and down holding a Corona, and yell "The green men are coming, the green men are coming."
Just keep an eye on it. Have you checked your lift pump pressure lately? Might not be a bad idea. I've seen those codes thrown when the injection pump has been starved for fuel. You want to see a minimum of 7 PSI at idle if the truck is stock. I prefer to see 10, especially with mild to medium performance parts on the truck. And 12 PSI if you've gotten a little nuts. Assuming of course this is the stock lift pump we're talking about.

They had to replace both of them.dieselbeef":f442n11e said:glad they stood behind it for ya...if they only did the lift pump then make sure that they will stand behind the inj pump as well cuz when it starves the pump it scores the plungers in that style pump and it will result in lower in press and poorer performance and eventual failure. hopefully not in yer case!
sounds like a decent place to deal with though them jobs can get quite high. my perf inj pump and lift pump cost me 1500$ and i installed it.
