DEALER SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
EMISSIONS RECALL L30 REPROGRAM ECM - DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID DOSING VALVE DIAGNOSTIC
Effective immediately all repairs on involved vehicles are to be performed according to this notification. Service Bulletin 18-029-11 / RRT 10-051 are no longer applicable for the involved vehicles only.
MODELS:
2011 (DD) Ram Truck (3500 chassis cab)
NOTE:
This recall applies only to the above vehicles equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine (sales code ETJ) and a 50 State Emission Control System (sales code NAS) Built through July 19, 2010 (MDH 071911). Those vehicles that have already had this repair performed have been excluded from this notification.
^ The Engine Control Module (ECM) on 11 of the above vehicles may have been built with a software error that prevents the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) diagnostic from running after detecting a pending fault, disabling DEF dosing without illuminating the MIL. This may cause the vehicle's exhaust emissions to exceed the allowable limit for oxides of nitrogen.
^ To correct this condition, the Engine Control Module (ECM) must be reprogrammed (flashed).
