P040D Exhaust Gas Recirculation Temperature (EGRT) Sensor A Circuit High
P1000

These are the codes I am getting on my buddy's 08 F350. We are on vacation and we had trouble with his truck going into regen mode all the time, for the last two days.

He has had trouble before with the DPF plugging and has had it replaced once already.

The truck was completely stock yesterday, and it went into a limp mode and would not accelerate. He was pulling a 5th wheel weighing about 13000 lbs. Anyway we were lucky enough to "breakdown" near Livingston
Montana and went in to see Steel at GOS.

Last night we installed a 4 inch exhaust system and an EDGE CTS while drinking beer in the campground. Anyway there were no codes last night and we made it to Butte today with the trailers. Then the codes above started popping up and it has no power. It also tried to regen "cleaning exhaust filter" even though we programmed in with the CTS that there is no DPF to be cleaned. The Exhaust is 4 inch Flo Pro from the down pipe back. Cat and DPF removed.

Can anybody help us troubleshoot?<!-- GAL --> <TABLE border=0 cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=400><TBODY><TR><TD height=5 width=5></TD><TD style="BACKGROUND: url(http://thedieselgarage.com/forums/images/misc/forumbox_top_tile.gif)" height=5></TD><TD height=5 width=6></TD></TR><TR><TD style="BACKGROUND: url(http://thedieselgarage.com/forums/images/misc/forumbox_left_tile.gif)" width=5></TD><TD class=forumbox><TABLE class=alt1 border=0 cellSpacing=1 cellPadding=6 width="100%"><TBODY><TR><TD class=tcat align=left>GOS Performance </TD></TR><TR><TD style="BACKGROUND: #ffffff; COLOR: #000000" align=left>******** onmouseover=GAL_keepopen(); onmouseout=GAL_hidepopup(); height=450 src="http://www.gosperformance.com/" width="100%">Your browser doesnt show Iframes!*********>

This error occurs when the EGR cooler inlet sensor
temperature output value is lower (higher voltage

indicating an open circuit or short to power.

Most likely it is the sensor itself.

Look at the sensor right off of the valve.

 

Thanks for the reply, where is this temp sensor? Can I replace it with hand tools?

 

Stand by, looking for a pic for you. It is right at the EGR valve

 

Try here, you should be able to locate it

Im in Helena MT if you need tools or a place/garage to work on the truck. Let me know.

 

It is people like you and Senix who make this such a great forum to be a part of. Thank you guys!
I'm proud to be a member of this forum!

 

Lets hope that it is the fix for him

All fixed up and back home in Alberta. Turns out that the pyro in the passenger side up pipe was the culprit. We picked up the necessary replacement at the Ford dealer in Butte and put it in the truck after the wives and kids went to sleep. 1 am Sunday morning we had her up and running like a champ.

 

Thanks guys for the response and my buddy thanks you all too

 

Glad you got it running.

 

Bringing this one back up, my truck has the same problem and same code. Where is the inlet sensor located? Is it right next to the EGR valve? Anyone have a picture?

 

follow the up pipe to the passenger side exhaust and you will see it there. Look from below.
