If your FICM has to be repaired that many time you mite want to check your batteries in pairs and replace in pairs, also always use OEM oil and fuel filters and take a look at your OIL cap and make sure its the OEM and not after market , the OEM cap will be shorter .Please refur to the pics above to make sure of this, alot of issues have been the ICP Pig Tail pretty simple installation the wires inbetween the grey clip will short out. I ran a oil treatment called REV X from Riff raff diesel products and it seem to help the oil side of the Injects.Sorry back to the OP ,

 

sorry for that last post........repaired the FICM once..........anyway..........what I need to know , is there any relationship to the trans oil temp and the engine parameters.....because it just seems that once the trans fluid is warm we are good.....runs awesome........wondering if it a sensor on the trans ...........

 

It would be best if you made a new topic with all of your problems, more time can be dedicated to it, and you don't derail the OP's issues or cause people to combine your issues with his. Just saying...

 

Hi guys,

I didn't too much about the problems with my truck, I was in Las Vegas.
But I finally ordered the Scan Gauge 2 at the autozone. Will arrive tomorrow. I hope it's not too hard to adjust the SG2, but I found some videos.
Then I can see what all the sensor are telling us.

 

The more you use it the easier it gets. At first can be kind of a PITA.

 

Got the scangauge 2 now. Still have some problems programing the X-gauges, but I'll figure out this weekend, I hope!
Will post the values 04badford asked me to.

 

That's Good news, now we [ as Speaking of the techs here as well can justifye the readings for you and teach you how to learn better . how did the Fuel washer Pic turn out ? Also when entering the X gauges take your time the numbers after awhile will look the same ,make sure you count all the zeros and spaces

 

MAP:

KOEO: 12.6
Idle: 12.7
@ 2000 RPM: 16.2
At WOT: 18

VGT:

KOEO: No value displayed
Idle: 73
@ 2200 RPM: 50

I couldn't set up EBP, yet. Still fighting the SG2!
What was baro again? atmospheric pressure?


I recogniced one more confusing thing. Just came home after work. Let the truck idle for 10 seconds like always, before shutting it off. Truck started running rough, and the exhaust sound changed, hearable from inside the truck. Looked at the SG and VGT dropped to 13-15. After a couple seconds the truck idlet normaly again, and VGT raised to 70 again. What was that??

Dan your map is showing low
MAP=
koeo-14psi
lo-14psi
hi-15psi
operating range=6-47
clean port to Intake and see if hose has blockage
still need EBP values
the VGT at hi and lo look good.
What came of the Oil filter washer?

 

oh VGT drop down ,could be turbo vanes sticking we need boost and EBP?

 

Ok, I'll post them until the weekend and check the MAP port.
Thanks!

 

Ok, I checked the MAP and the hose, both look flawless.
Can't get EBP working with the SG. I checked it 3 times, all the numbers are correct.
I made a video of the VGT today. It's cycling in very big steps. Every time the VGT cycles, the exhaust sound changes. When it goes down to 14-15 the truck starts shaking a bit and runs rough. When the VGT rises, you can hear the turbo whistle gets louder. Have a straight pipe exhaust, that's why I can hear that.
Anything else to check? I won't stop working on the EBP values, though.

I Hear the wyne of the turbo but ,I don't think the Boost is there ? lets see what the guys say ? , I'm thinking still EBP? Have you checked BOOST on the gauge? CAC inter cooler or connections? one last time what did the Flip up Washer connection in the Oil housing turn out ????

 

Oh yeah, the washer thing... Drives me crazy, too! I removed the fuel filter cap, a couple o days ago, and couldn't find the bend washer, so I removed the secondary fuel filter cap, but no washer, either!
Maybe the picture was from the primary fuel filter cap?
It's no fun to take that one apart, but I think I'll change the whole hfcm.

 

Here's the vid I talked about:
