Cat 315 WKX00292 I will attach pictures of all the codes and status flags that are on the machine. I am starting with just looking over all after treatment wiring and sensors. Is there anything else I can do to figure out the troubled area or where else I should look?
If there’s DEF in your tank, it seems that the tank sensor in the DEF header has gone bad. Your machine falls under service magazine M0128491 which has a new sensor kit part number 594-7019.
The gauge inside the cab said I had a 1/2 tank of def. I topped it off and no change on the gauge. I would assume that would verify that it is the tank sensor? Also for my own future knowledge, how did you know it was that sensor?
Experience, seen a couple hundred of them fail. Beware of the sticker shock, they’re proud of them.
It shows that it’s $100 cheaper to get the whole manifold 591-3429. Would that be the better route?
yes
I hadn’t noticed the group price on that. Seems odd but I’d definitely take them up on it.
Manifold will be in tomorrow morning. Will I need to reset or clear anything in ET after I install it?
I think you’ll be able to put it in and go, most you might have to do is an aftertreatment system functional test in ET.
Understood. Thank you very much for the help.
