Service bulletin TSB16-0098

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

NHTSA's summary

SOME 2011-2016 F-SUPER DUTY VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH A 6.7L DIESEL ENGINE THAT ARE PRIMARILY IN A STATIONARY OR OFF-HIGHWAY LOW SPEED USE MAY EXHIBIT FREQUENT EXHAUST REGENERATION ATTEMPTS, DRIVE TO CLEAN MAINTENANCE MESSAGES, THE WRENCH LIGHT ON AND/OR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) P2459 FOR FREQUENT REGENERATION. IF REGENERATION ATTEMPTS ARE UNSUCCESSFUL, DTC P2463 MAY SET AS A RESULT OF SOOT ACCUMULATION IN THE DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF). VEHICLES OPERATED IN THIS MANNER MAY NOT EASILY ALLOW FOR NORMAL EXHAUST REGENERATION AND MAY BENEFIT FROM OCR CAPABILITY SO THE UNIT CAN PERFORM COMPLETE REGENERATION CYCLES IN A STATIONARY SETTING. FOLLOW THE SERVICE PROCEDURE STEPS TO CORRECT THE CONDITION.

SSM 550982026-08-25. Service bulletin. Some 2013-2016 Super Duty vehicles equipped with a 6.7L diesel engine and 2015-2019 Transit vehicles equipped with a 3.2L diesel engine may not pass a state smog test due to the exhaust gas system (EGS) monitor that will not run after completing the exhaust gas sensor drive cycle located within Section 2 of the Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnostics (PC/ED) Manual > Drive Cycles. This may be due to the vehicles diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) age counter being under the 120-minute age requirement. There is an all-new "PCM Catalytic Converter Age Evaluation" application within the latest version of the Ford Diagnosis and Repair System (FDRS). Use this new FDRS application to determine the age (in minutes) of the DOC. If the age is less than 120 minutes, perform manual regenerations to increase the catalyst age counter to satisfy the monitor age requirement. If further assistance is needed, contact the technical assistance center (TAC). Note: this article only applies to the EGS monitor. Problems with other vehicle monitors not running successfully must be addressed using normal diagnostics located i
