  1. i have read about using the cruise control switches, what is the process for that ?

    Here is the procedure

    BLINK CODE METHOD

    The V-MAC III system is capable of flashing a

    two digit blink code for each detectable active

    fault in the V-MAC III system. These codes are

    displayed on the Electronic Malfunction Lamp

    (EML) which is located on the dashboard. The

    primary reason for the blink code is to allow quick

    diagnosis of active faults in the system without

    requiring an expensive troubleshooting tool.

    To properly activate and use the blink codes,

    follow the steps listed below.

    1. Turn the key ON and wait until the Electronic

    Malfunction Lamp’s two second power-up

    test is finished.

    2. There must be an active fault for the lamp to

    remain ON after the two second power-up

    test.

    3. With the Speed Control ON/OFF Switch in

    the OFF position, press and hold the

    SET/DECEL Switch until the malfunction

    lamp goes OFF.

    4. The malfunction lamp will remain OFF for

    approximately one second.

    5. Immediately after the wait time, the Vehicle

    Electronic Control Unit (VECU) will begin to

    flash a two digit blink code. The two digits of

    the code will be separated by a one second

    idle time (malfunction lamp OFF).

    6. Each digit of the blink code may consist of

    up to nine ON/OFF flashes. The ON and

    OFF time between each flash will be one second.

    7. The ON flashes of the malfunction lamp

    must be counted in order to determine the

    two digit blink code.

    8. Only one active fault will be blinked per

    request. There must be a separate request

    for each active fault, where there are

    multiple active faults present in the system.

    To request another fault be displayed, hold in

    the SET/DECEL Switch until the malfunction

    lamp goes OFF. The blinking sequence will

    begin again after a one second delay.

    9. If a fault blinking request is made while the

    Vehicle Electronic Control Unit (VECU) is in

    the process of blinking an active fault, that

    sequence will stop and the next active fault

    will be blinked.

    10. If an active fault is cleared while the Vehicle

    Control Unit (VECU) is blinking that fault, the

    procedure will not stop.

    11. After every complete blinking sequence, the

    malfunction lamp will return to normal. It will

    remain ON for active faults and OFF for

    inactive faults.

    12. The Vehicle Electronic Control Unit (VECU)

    will provide blink codes for active faults

    registered by both the Vehicle Electronic

    Control Unit (VECU) and Engine Electronic

    Control Unit (EECU).

  2. hey guys

    i need some help here. i have a 2003 RD688S with the AI 350, i had a problem with poor throttle response and no power after 1800 RPM,

    i had a local shop check fuel pres, it was low so they put a new pump on and they also adjusted the valves. the truck ran much better for a bit. the last couple of days though it's been a real dog, at 1800RPM it's flat..no power at all but after a storm rolled through today and cooled things off the truck run's 100% better, it would pull through 2100RPM. all the filters are new and the engine speed sensor has been replaced. it seems to me that there is bad sensor somewhere. the electronic malfunction light comes on very sporadically, maybe once a month, more or less. i haven't had the codes scannned thought. is there a way for me to scan the codes without a scanner ?

    i now know that air tempature makes a huge difference on performance.

    thanks for any input.

    You could pull codes from diagnostic switch on dash board. If the dash is digital then there are two push switches at the side or you could use the cruise control set resuume switch to display the codes.
