DamageINC Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I remember hearing a lot of horror stories about how some 6.0 re-man's were having problems with the crank sensor tone ring being all botched up right out of the crate. This was shortly after I long-block'd a school bus back in May. That bus came in today complaining of intermittent running rough, I can't verify it but it has a P0336, P0341, P2614, and P2617. I'd hate to think that there's a problem with the tone ring, especially because it's intermittent, but then again who knows? I am leaning more towards a harness issue, I just find it odd that I have similar cam AND crank codes. Anyone got any input? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Clayton Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I'd put my money on the harness all day! The shielding cuts into the wires just before it gets to the pcm and the harness is kinda short to begin with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamageINC Posted October 28, 2008 Author Share Posted October 28, 2008 Thanks, I'll poke around in that area tomorrow and see what I find! Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why in the hell would you want to poke around in there needlessly? The price of the harness itself is ridiculously cheap anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Browning Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Why in the hell would you want to poke around in there needlessly? The price of the harness itself is ridiculously cheap anyways. Personally, I prefer to make an attempt to affirm my suspicions especially if normal diagnostics have led nowhere. I don't suggest spending an hour messing with the harness but poking and prodding harnesses has historically worked for me. If I am going to throw a harness at a truck I at least want to try. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/2cents.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekanik Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I might spend a little time poking and prodding, but in the end I would replace the harness. After it is out of the vehicle, it would be nice to take a closer look and find a smoking gun. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/borgsmile-1.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shlep Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Just buttoned one of those up on an 06 E-series with the same codes and an eratic no start, found the wires wore through right under the air intake between the intake. The shielding made some really nice cut marks in there /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/banghead.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony302600 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 The reason I don't poke around much is even if you do find a problem, the harness isn't repairable, and thus warranty won't pay for it. Have the time you don't even find anything wrong but the bugger is fixed. The harness isn't hard to do. Slam it in (that's what she said), and send it on it's way.
