2008 6.4 electrical

Had some issues with truck turning off when i hit bumps threw p163a and 1639 turned out to be bad alternator.

Changed issue went away but..


Battery abs and check engine light are still on...
Any ideas should they clear on their own?

Ive cleared the codes through my tuner and they come right back up after a few seconds. One battery is new the other old but tests ok.

Heard theres a 30 drive cycle some sau 40 but i believe ive syarted and driving it that already...

If you're clearing the codes, and it turns the light on again afterwards, then there's an issue still present. Are they the same codes you listed above?

Ok figured it out

1-go to ebay buy unlock code for $150.00

2-go to settings on mini or black maxx and hold down Jj ottom left hand button

A code will pop up u give that code to the seller of the unlock code along with your vehicle make. Do it over the phone to avoid issues.

3- enter code they give u into mini maxx and follow sellers instruction

4 - go to ford and park it return to stock then have them come flash the "as built" tune

5 - reinstall your tuner

If you dont return to stock before ford flashes it your buying a new code and starting at step one

Buckhunterryan is who i bought my code from on ebay great help
