Hello, folks! It's been a while since I posted anything. That's because the ole girl was running pretty decent. Not so much anymore. I've got an 04 F350 SRW, with an auto tranny. First I'll list off the symptoms:
1. When cruising along or accelerating, the vgt spools up and down, up and down.
2. Once in a while the engine will miss.
3. Hard starting.
I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest HPO problems?
Now for the tranny related stuff.
4. When driving down the road, cruise on or off, it will come out of gear for a second, long enough for the rpms to go way up, and then it goes back into gear with a big SLAM.
5. The Tow/Haul light goes solid for a minute, then starts flashing.
6. After that, it shifts at roughly 2200rpm and will not go into O/d.
Here are the codes; I could only find a description for one:
1. p0046: Turbo Boost Control Solenoid Circuit Range/Performance
2. p0275:
3. p2287:
4. p0766:
5. p2703:
In advance, I thank all of you for your help and input. It is greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot for the code definitions! Any clue what this all means?

 

Shift Solenoid D is probably bad, but I do not know transmissions much at all. I can find you a pic of the transmission that will locate the specific solenoid, but I will have to search for it.

Your ICP sensor may also be bad. Do you know if it is behind the turbo or on your passenger valve cover (04's had it in both of those locations depending on build date). The sensors under the turbo are hard to get to, but they have a fairly high failure rate (and so does the connector for it).

 

The icp sensor is on the pass valve cover. I replaced it a month ago hoping it would fix the problem.

 

Try this:

Code P0046 is set when a short to ground, open, or short to power is identified in the VGTCV or wiring between the PCM and VGTCV. This circuit is a continuously monitored circuit that takes less than 1 second to set.

 

How about the ICP Pigtail was it changed too

Have any gauges??

Kinda is pointing to a wire harness Chaffe IMO

 

Wire chaff on the icp harness? I'll look tomorrow and post back. Any particular places I should look?
