stumphanger55 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Our 2001 CL713 will shut down on occasion, just as if you turned off the switch. Just prior to doing so, the electronic malfunction light comes on. 2-3 seconds later the light goes out, and you can restart using the key, or if you are moving, just leave the clutch engaged and it will restart on it's own. It may happen two or three times a day, or not at all. The most was about a dozen times on a rainy day. I am thinking maybe a ground issue? We bought this truck new, and I have been the only operator in the last 4-5 years. Any thoughts or similar experiences and solutions?

stumphanger55 Posted January 31, 2013 Author Share Posted January 31, 2013 Thanks. No, I am not getting any codes. We had a Sterling dump do something similar a year ago. Virginia Truck Center found a bad ground on the frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackattack3 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 My 2001 CH613 used to do that, finally after about a month it started giving me a code. The connector on timing postion sensor was brittle and broke into pieces. As i hit bumps it would lose connection for a second and die, until that day when it finally came apart and wouldnt start back up.. it finally gave a code that day.
