P20BA, P20BE, P20BA-C Codes

Check engine light and all three of these codes come up. I have looked a little and see that they are some kind of heaters for the DEF system. Does the fact that all three of these come up have any particular significance? Do I need to follow repair procedures for all three of them?

Had those codes as well, replacing the def heater/pump assembly solved them in my case. My failure was around 77K miles.

You can do this in your driveway. There are videos on how to do it. I tried to find the Ford part. I got mine from White Bear lake Ford.

Thanks, guys, I'll look into that. I did find info on the heater replacement but the multiple codes made me wonder if there was more to it.

I've called Ford and they're telling me that the pump and heater is one unit for this truck and price is $1400. Does this sound right? I scanned it with Forscan, can I count on it being right?

Dealer has the truck and tells me that this is a warranty repair and that there is a service bulletin on the wiring harness for this unit. I guess I'll see if that fixes it or not.

glad you got it fixed under warranty


amazon has the pump for 100 bucks and the heater for about 125. it may not be motorcraft, but it wont be ripoff. you can always count on ford to charge 10 times the street value .

Thanks, Yeah, having it done under warranty is good, I don't like working in the cold any more. Anyway, check engine light came right back on so it's going back in. On their write-up, it says that no defects were found in the harness that they replaced either.

Ford stealership replaced the DEF heater/pump and the truck is still throwing the same codes except they're coming back quicker. Any thoughts? It's still on warranty and is scheduled to go back next week.

Truck is back from third trip to stealership on this matter. They came to the conclusion that the GPCM was causing the problem and they replaced that. We shall see if that was the issue.
