Replaced Sensor 2 with brand new GM sensor. Easy enough. Hooked up Gretio to read system.
Not showing codes, but the DEF derate warning is still there
Ran Service Regen to clear system (DPF was at 105%, now at 8%) That was pretty cool watching the temps skyrocket, pressures and % drop.
Ran...
Because sometimes a guy needs a truck. I mean, shit happens...but every three months? Cmon.
I guess this thread will end up a cautionary tale for people googling information on these LWN trucks. Not that it started that way, but in the end, Ive come to the conclusion that these diesels just...
Well, that reprieve was short lived. Three whole months! Must be a record of some kind!
Sarcasm aside: Truck decided to go into DEF derate again on the freeway. P20EE and P22A1 popped up. Directs to NoX sensor 2, downstream. Yay.
On a bright note, mileage was averaging 31mpg at 72mph...

I dont really care, I just think its a cool car.
'32 Ford? My Dad had one of those completely torn apart in the back of our garage when I was growing up. Darn thing even had a rumble seat. Sold it just before he divorced my Mom. I always wondered if the guy who bought it finished the build......
Update. No CELs. No new calls on the truck, but a few people have stopped by the house and looked at it. $6+/gal isnt helping me sell it, thats for sure.
Ive noticed that the truck does not regen as often as it did before. Avg mileage is up to 25 now, too. Power/acceleration seems...
1) Interesting little tidbit about doing rear brakes on a GM car with electric parking brake: If you cant put it into "brake service mode" then disconnect the battery before twisting the caliper piston in. Thats not in any write up or manual that I found, but thats what the tech told my son...
