Drove my truck today for the first time. As some of you know I bought a non-runner, that had a bad ECM. I ordered a replacement ecm from Ebay for $450, it was programmed for a 3406. I flashed it for a C-12, then used the parameters file madams posted. I bought software from ebay and a used...
Can someone post the stock ecm parameters and configurations? I am assuming this is possible for someone with access to the ecm configurations and flash capabilities.
It would really help some of us now or in the future when we need to have a replacement ecm programed for our truck.
That's where I sent my ecm. I received a call from them earlier today saying that my ecm wasn't repairable, due to a bad microprocessor. They were one of the few that didn't charge a diagnostic fee.
Here's some more information I gathered. I spent almost two weeks calling a bunch of different...
Is your truck missing one or do you have a no start condition? I just sent my ecm off to be rebuilt or replaced. Just curious to see if you're have the same problems as me.
I spoke to a guy from Diesel Control Service about repairing my ecm. Here is what he said...At the moment they have stopped taking in CAT ecm's due to lack of replacement parts. The voltage regulator that provides 90-120v to the injector goes bad. It will spike to 200-250 volts and arcing on...
I check that before I pull the ecm. I am leaning towards the ecm being bad considering that the TIM doesn't recognize it. On the other hand doesn't explain why it can't recognize the other modules.
So...I have tested/verified all found relays, breakers, and fuses. Found one bad relay in the engine compartment, near the driver's side firewall area. I am getting the correct voltage to the pins on the ecm. The rpm gauge doesn't move when cranking.
I am going to try two more things before I...
I found some fuses in that area that were zip tied to the wire loom, but not on the firewall. Are you referring to those?
None of my breakers were tripped. I removed some and tested them with a multi-meter. Then I took them all out and put regular fuses, didn't make any difference. I will test...
I get that message for every module, engine, transmission, ctis...
I know some of these trucks were missing engine modules, but my truck has it.
I haven't been able to start it, it's ran for like 2 seconds on ether. Any ideas?
