I've got a newly purchased 2009 F350 XL Crew cab. It's been in limp mode since I got it. I think I may have the problem narrowed down to the oil level sensor. Here's my problem: I can't find a replacement part anywhere on the internet; even Fordparts.com. I can't locate the sensor either.
Please, somebody tell me where the thing is located, and where I can find a new one. Until I can clear the code for this, the truck is useless to me.
This is the same problem as in my post "6.4 limp mode".
Thanks

 

Alldata don't show a oil level sensor. What is the code number you are getting?

 

Thanks for replying craftsmangary. After spending a couple hours at a local shop, we discovered that there is no high oil level sensor. High level is presumed to be present when you have a weak injector that isn't contributing equally to overall engine power. Given the 6.4's high pressure fuel rail, the programmers made the system to assume that fuel is leaking into the crankcase when an injector's performance is low.
Because I have no oil level issue, it is evident that my #4 (as identified by the Matco computer) is weak. I think it's probably got a bad spray pattern due to carbon or trash. Following Ford's reasoning, the only way I can continue to drive the truck without worrying about going into limp mode is to spend about $1000 to change out that injector. Why couldn't they have just designed in an actual oil level sensor? One that would alert to either high or low oil level in the sump. I guess that wouldn't look near as whiz bang as having a software correlated fuel flow differential analysis. Plus, it would keep a lot of people out of the dealership service dept.

 

Is fuel getting into the oil? If so I would drain the engine oil, jump the fuel relay so the pump is running, and look for fuel dripping out the plug hole.
