I have a strange problem we have been chasing for over a year....2008 3500 ltz dually lmm straight 50 horse efi live tune & dpf delete. When pulling 20k trailer in hot weather it will go into limp mode--not often...about once every couple weeks. Only code it shows is ect out of range...but...when running a tech 2 on it-- it reads a failure record that says ect # 1 temp at 210 and ect # 2 at 450....The 2008s only have 1 ect sensor where the 2007s had two. Somehow it is picking up this ghost reading from a sensor that doesnt exist. Is there a possibility that something in the tune could be wrong to make this problem show up? I didnt build the tune myself but have had it back to the tuner and we are stumped...Any info is appreciated....Thanks

Are you sure he used the correct OS? The LMM's all use the same OS number, but there is alot of differences in the segments. Sounds liek he used an 07 tune in your 08 if your getting an 07 code.
