Hi folks! & a Happy New 2013 to you all[IMG]file:///C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\T emp\msohtmlclip1\01\clip_image 001.gif[/IMG]
Don’t know if any other peeps have had this same course of events happen.......?
Have trawled the forum, but cannot find a similar scenario to mine.
Was getting the normal speedo issues (intermittent working), then packed up altogether, with the usual code 42. Have been happily truckin' for a few months with the dodgy speedo, until the truck had a breakdown 2 days ago. The Mrs phoned to say it just cut out on the A30, no warning, engine check light came on & all dash lights. RAC man checked it over & confirmed that all the essentials (fuel, air, power etc) were ok.
Happened to me today & it felt like a solenoid cutting out in the gearbox. Got like a lurching sensation very briefly before it cut out. Disconnected batteries & reconnected...all ok.
Since all this -have replaced speedo sensor & kph to mph converter & the speedo is now working & am getting no faults from the ECU. But it is still cutting out, usually when engine is at normal temp. Again, have run diagnostics with TE1 & E1 - just get continuous flashing engine & O/D light with no fault codes[IMG]file:///C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\T emp\msohtmlclip1\01\clip_image 002.gif[/IMG]
Runs as smooth as it should. No loss of power at all.
How do you get error codes from the gearbox?
Was also wondering if any forum members would have a spare ECU (big assumption, sorry) to borrow for a few hours to see if this would be at fault?? (chuck in a couple o beer tokens of course)
Have visually inspected the ECU circuit boards for any signs of damage or lose soldering joins, but physically all looks ok.
Any help much appreciated.......
