Deleted 6.7 throws "See dealer for service" message on overhead display.

It is getting better. Towed for 260 miles yesterday, got the ding only one time at 160 miles into the trip. Then no more dings. Towed 167 miles today, never got the ding at all.

Small victories are still victories!! :-) Glad it's less annoying now.....

Tuned and 08' and it's doing the OH display message. Other then that the guy is really happy, getting 19+ with 35" mud tires and some extra power.

Cindy,

I just tuned a 6.7 that's doing the overhead message alert. He said he is willing to try a beta tune if it would help getting this fixed faster for everyone Can I email you his tune file and you let us know if that's a possibility?

Thanks!

Is this any closer to getting resolved? I'd love to be able to use my EFI for my truck, but with the month's events it would be nice to know how much longer or if I should start looking in earnest for someone that has a tuner in stock that will do deletes.

It's a shot in the dark, I haven't heard any new news. Your truck will either ding or it won't. There is a chance it won't do it, but its slim.

The chime issue only occurs on a small percentage of trucks. We've found nothing to indicate a pattern with the trucks that have an issue - it's very hit and miss.

We've spent countless hours on this and haven't been able to implement a fix that fixes the issue without compromising the integrity of our software and other functions. This issue still exists on some trucks and it's not through lack of trying I can assure you.

I can't give you a time frame to 'fix' it. All I can say is with the 100's of man hours we've invested to resolve this we have to be closer than before we started looking for a resolution, but the when and how questions are still unanswered in terms of delivering our customers a final fix.

If we implement the 'wrong' fix to stop the complaints in this thread, a new thread will pop up with people complaining of the side affects of the wrong fix. There is a right way and a wrong way to do things, we've chosen the path that we believe is right.

The interim fix works well, and consistently on all trucks currently being tested. The chime will go off once at the 10 minute mark, and then not again until either the vehicle is restarted or until the vehicle has travelled 6 hours in a single trip.

Cheers
Cindy

I read this thread a couple of weeks ago and don't remember anybody asking this. Would it take care of the overhead message if we added a couple of resistors inline and made a "dpf fooler" like some were doing when dpf's first started being deleted. Don't know if this is worth trying because i'm sure somebody already has. Just food for thought.
