Problem with HFCM

I think the spelling is close but I am referring to the frame mounted fuel/water seperater. Truck has 12000 miles on it and the light came on so I drained the module and still a light. Got the fuel filters and replaced, still a light. I friend of a friend said he had gotten bad diesel in south Texas and screwed up his module and had to replace. I was in South Texas last week- coincidence? Anyway are you guys having problems with ya'lls?

Will take in first of next week- dealer claims it will be warrantied!

I've read posts before where some owners have had the light stay on after filter change/water drain.. Let the dealer change it out!!

Good Luck,

Russ

the sensors go bad on the early ones and they will put on a new one.... (which shouldn't have the soft brass drain plug)
