Customers may experience a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination. Upon further investigation the Technician may find one or more of the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) have been set: ? P0300 - Multiple Cylinder Misfire, cold Idle misfire (DJ,D2 or DD vehicles only). ? P030X - Cylinder Misfire (any cylinder) (Additional improvements over the last software update). ? P04D1 - Cooled EGR Temperature Sensor Circuit High. ? P04D0 - Cooled EGR Temperature Sensor Circuit Low. ? P2504 - Charging System Output High. ? P0441 - Evap Purge System Performance. ? P2066 - Fuel Level Sensor 2 Performance. ? P0401 - EGR System Performance (DJ/D2 vehicles only). ? P2096 - Downstream Fuel Trim System 1 Lean (DD/DP vehicles only). ? P2098 - Downstream Fuel Trim System 2 Lean (DD/DP vehicles only). ? P0740 - TCC Out of Range (DD vehicles equipped with a DFP automatic transmission). Customers may also experience any of the following conditions: ? Slightly elevated idle speed noticed during engine warm-up when in Reverse or Drive and when operating in cold ambient temperatures. ? PTO mobile mode cancels or deactivates when vehicle comes to a stop (DD/DP vehicles only). ? Engine cycles in and out of MDS mode too often when operating in PTO stationary mode (DD/DP vehicles only). ? PTO stationary mode cancels or deactivates when PTO up-fit equipment loads fluctuate (DD/DP vehicles only) The following powertrain system improvements/enhancements are also included in this software release: ? Improve Idle at high altitudes (DJ,D2 or DD vehicles only). ? Spark knock on vehicle with low octane fuel (DJ,D2 or DD vehicles only). ? Operator idle speed control enhancements. ? Raise 4x4 low range minimum engine speed from 725 to 800 RPM. ? Raise minimum engine speed to allow MDS activa","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2015/MC-10159902-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2015/MC-10159902-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10159902","components":[{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null},{"id":"engine","name":"Engine","parent":null},{"id":"equipment","name":"Equipment and accessories","parent":null},{"id":"powertrain","name":"Transmission and driveline","parent":null}],"codes":["P0300","P0401","P0441","P04D0","P04D1","P0740","P2066","P2096","P2098","P2504"],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"RAM","model":"2500","year_from":2014,"year_to":2014,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2014_ram_2500"]},{"make":"RAM","model":"3500","year_from":2014,"year_to":2014,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2014_ram_3500"]},{"make":"RAM","model":"4500","year_from":2014,"year_to":2014,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2014_ram_4500"]},{"make":"RAM","model":"5500","year_from":2014,"year_to":2014,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2014_ram_5500"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
