Running late this morning. Started the truck and went, but only to find out the CEL came on. There was a lot of hisssing coming while I was driving since the engine was still very cold or the oil dropped down enough to trigger the light as it did before.

All I have to say is one month out of no payments and the CEL comes on again.....WTF

 

Time for a new one Al

 

You can fix the CEL by removing the dash, plucking out that annoying bulb, then reinstalling the dash.

 

Damn Mike.. what a great idea!!!

 

when my old vehicles would start making funny noises i would fix them by upgrading my stereo equipment... worked every time.

 

All great choices. I do have an AE and would clear it out that way. If it's my dummie light for the oil I think I'll check that before I leave work.

 

Santa upgraded my stereo. Now I have a usb port. Thumb drive with 2700 songs on it. Now I don't have to listen to blabbering. Very cool.

Al. Just remove the bulb. Much easier, and it'll never bother you again!

 

Won't bother me until the truck stops.

 

Ahh, one little light bulb isn't going to stop a 7,000 pound truck!

 

Hello All,

New to the site and a newer diesel owner. This forum seems real infomational. i hope to find out all the information i need in the future and make some new friends.

I am in Middleville, i have a 2004 f250 4x4 quad cab 6.0l. hopefully doing some upgrades soon.

 

Hey your between Mike and I. I think if you keep your beer fridge stocked at all time we can meet at your place and help you drink it!!

Glad you found us. Be sure to check in and join the Michigan chapter for a proper welcome!

 

yeah thats near my 'hood too. welcome.

 

Sorry B, you're probably closest. At least we can have a local meet at Ucello's sometime

 

i did send my request to join the michigan chapter. Yes uccello's sometime would be good. i work 12 hrs a day though. lol i work in Moline.

 

Just checked the truck with the AE and popped up with P0471 exhaust pressure sensor range performance, and P0476 exhaust pressure control valve range performance.


dont know if it was because the truck was so cold and I just started to hammer on it cause I was late for work or what. I cleared the codes and restarted the truck rev'd it up and nothing came back on. Is this a warning "jackass i'm cold" light or what.
