2007 Sprinter High/Low Boost

06/2007 Sprinter 2500 with OM 642 3.0L engine, approx 35k miles on vehicle, MIL on. Code for High and code for Low boost stored showing problem first appeared 3k miles ago but customer just noticed problem recently. Intermittent extremely low power. Problem dis-appears on restart, but re-appears within 20 miles. Minor intake air leak (pressurized intake charge) at o-ring on charge air cooler causing hissing sound, possibly due to over pressurization. O-ring on order.
Also, cannot manually or with computer reset service indicator.
Thanks for any help you can offer,

    Although no one replied to this posting, I have found the problem. Early model Sprinters had a problem with the turbo resonators failing. The 2007's have an issue with the o-ring connecting the resonator to the pipe leading to the intercooler and the o-ring from this same pipe where it connects to the flex hose going to the intercooler. For some reason the o-rings are failing around 30,000 miles and kicking a code for high/low boost. The same code can also be set by egr problems, but check the o-rings first. If there is oil in the aluminum pipe, the o-rings should be replaced. You may also hear a suction sound, but not always.

    As for resetting the service indicator, I have been told this is a common problem with no answer as to date.

    Thanks to Greg who took the time to contact factory tech support.

    Also check the swedged steel fitting on the rubber flex hoses to the intercooler. Apparently they may have been crimped too tightly at the factory causing the rubber to tear and leak.

    I have the same or simular problem with my 07 built o8 modle. sudden lossof power . will not rev above 2000 rpm up shifts fast. Restart engine and it goes away. some times for days and other times it happens a few times a day. Sometimes the check engine light comes on and goes off after a few restarts. exhaust sound also gets deeper when the problem happens.

    I'll check resonator O rings.

    Thanks!

What will be required to fix a code PO299 on a 2007 MB Sprinter 2500?

We're there any other codes? This DTC code is a Turbo issue. The trouble code suggests the turbo is not working at its best, not enough 'boost' for the engine. Try this web page for ideas for what to check next.

My HHR keeps setting the p0193 code. The symptoms are intermittent start and stall, run rough while stopped idling and starts, runs rough, stalls the restarts like nothing happened. and

This code refers to the fuel rail pressure sensor circuit being high. The two most common problems of this code are a faulty sensor and/or faulty pressure regulator. A wiring/computer issue can also contribute to this code. I have had success with numerous vehicles displaying this code by changing the fuel pressure sensor and correcting the problems you have stated

Hi, I have a 2007 Dodge Sprinter & am getting an alert code P2015. It's apparently a sensor malfunction. Can you tell me which sensor is affected by this trouble code?

Code Description onepxblk.gif P2015 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Signal Too Low - With Automatic Transmission arrow_right_blacks.gif Printer Friendly P2015 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Signal Too Low - With Automatic Transmission Possible Causes Setting Conditions
  • Check for air in the Fuel system
  • Check the fuel pressure
  • Check for leaks in the Fuel Supply system components
  • Fuel pressure solenoid has failed
  • Fuel quantity solenoid has failed
  • Fuel pump has failed
  • Fuel supply is contaminated
Engine running; and the ECM determined that the fuel rail pressure was too low for a given engine speed and load.

This code sets in 1 Trip(s).
This code will turn on the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) onepxblk.gif Malfunction Indicator Lamp The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) alerts the driver that the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) has detected an OBD II emission-related component or system fault. When this type of malfunction occurs, an OBD II Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be set by the PCM. The MIL is located on the instrument cluster and is labeled CHECK ENGINE, SERVICE ENGINE SOON, or is identified with an ISO standard engine symbol (i.e., a picture of an engine).
Bulb Test
Each time the ignition switch is turned to the "on" position, the MIL indicator is illuminated for about 3 seconds (which is a function of the PCM).
MIL Lamp-On Message
Each time the PCM detects an Emissions related fault, the MIL is illuminated to inform the driver that the vehicle needs to be taken in for service.
onepxblk.gif COMPONENT MONITOR DRIVE CYCLE INSTRUCTIONS
  • Do not turn off the ignition switch during the test procedure.
  • All Onboard System Readiness codes are cleared if the battery is disconnected or when the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is cleared with the scan tool.
  • This drive cycle can be used to determine if the Readiness code for this Monitor will run and complete, and if the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will remain off after the vehicle is driven.
  • Operating Ranges: Whenever a range of values is provided, try to operate the vehicle in the middle of the range. For example, if the vehicle speed range is from 45-65 mph, operate the vehicle at as close as possible to 55 mph. If the Short Term fuel trim range is -20% to +20%; try to operate the vehicle near 0%.
  • Scan Tool Data: There are certain Parameter Identification (PID) values that must be within range before this Monitor will "run". It can be helpful to pull up those PID items on the scan tool so an assistant can view them during the test.
  • The Readiness code for this Monitor defaults to "continuous" or "monitoring" because this Monitor runs continuously when the engine is cranking or running.
  • This information is a representation of a Drive Cycle, and may vary due to software revisions to the PCM.
COMPONENT MONITOR PRETEST CONDITIONS
  • MIL is off.
  • Battery voltage between 11-16v.
  • Key on or engine running at idle or cruise speed.
TEST PROCEDURE
  1. Connect the scan tool to the data link connector (DLC).
  2. Start the engine and allow it to run at idle speed for 1-2 minutes.
  3. Accelerate at part-throttle to Cruise speed and maintain that speed for several minutes. Bring the vehicle to a stop, but do not turn off the ignition key.
  4. Check for any diagnostic trouble codes (DTC's) in memory. If any DTC's are set, refer to the appropriate trouble code chart to make the repair. If no DTC's are set, the test is finished. Return to the service bay and turn off the ignition key.

My 2007 dodge with 5.9 diesel is showing engine malfunction light and error code of P1740, failed TCC or overdrive solenoid. The truck seems to run ok in overdrive but I don't understand what the TCC...

Code P1740-Torque converter clutch did not lock up when the PCM sent the command. Enabling conditions: No engine or transmissions codes are present, vehicle speed was under 70 MPH, TPS was under 33% open. When the PCM commanded the torque converter to lock, no change was detected in engine speed. Blocking action: This code can block the following monitors: none.

Testing: Check torque converter solenoid for proper operation.

NUMBER: 21-11-00
GROUP: Transmissions
EFFECTIVE DATE: October 02, 2000
SUBJECT: 46RE Transmission MIL Due To DTC P1740 - TCC or OD Solenoid Performance
OVERVIEW: This bulletin involves the replacement of the transmission pressure boost valve cover plate.
MODELS: 2000 - 2001 (AB) Ram Van 2000 - 2001 (AN) Dakota 2000 - 2001 (BR/BE) Ram Truck 2000 - 2001 (DN) Durango

NOTE: THIS BULLETIN APPLIES TO VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A 46RE TRANSMISSION BUILT BEFORE AUGUST 01, 2000 (MDH O8O1XX).

SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
The customer may complain of a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination. Upon further analysis, it is determined that the MIL is caused by Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P1740 - Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) or overdrive solenoid Performance. Other than the MIL, the customer may not notice any other condition with the transmission.

This condition may be caused by an intermittent and momentary TCC disengagement condition. The transmission valve body pressure boost valve cover plate has been revised with a larger size orifice hole to address this condition.

NOTE: THE DRB III(R) MUST BE OPERATING AT RELEASE LEVEL 50.4 MDS2 SYSTEM CIS CD2067 OR HIGHER (AVAILABLE THE WEEK OF OCTOBER 2, 2000) IN ORDER TO PERFORM THE REVISED TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH STALL TEST. DO NOT USE EARLIER VERSION STALL TEST TO DETERMINE CONDITION OF THE TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH.

Here can find the test in pdf format: 2009-11-28_034958_1124.pdf

Hope helps.
