MIL LIGHT ON? What do you do?

Just another video to share my experiences in an effort to help other drivers

[@JasonBrown-wb2kr]

I was about to call dispatch and get routed to a terminal for nothing, thank you for saving me $.

It helps a lot… I have same Model Freightliner

[@calliewilliams4802]

Fantastic! I wish I knew this last year. Freightliner charged me $450 to say there were no codes & they couldn’t find a problem ( truck was one month old) .

I’ve got a 19’ and been running with the mil light on for a month, after a 34 or longer than 10hr break without turning it on it does go away but comes back within 1 or 2 shifts of driving, my company told me not to worry about it and so far everything seems fine

[@drissd2748]

I have a solid ml light on , thank you for the video.2015 Freightliner cascadia over 500k miles on it

[@ryanlevron1972]

Your welcome

[@unitemin]

I’m driving 2022 Cascadia just 13k miles on it and this light (MIL) just popped up but everything looks normal. Thanks for the information. 👍

[@unitemin]

Update: it turned off next day by itself.

Thanks for sharing

[@kennethsulzen7694]

That’s true, I was told the same thing from a mechanic at Penske. Did the same on my truck. ✌️

[@JS-jv6rg]

My 2015 cascadia comes on and it cycles it self off, it cost me $ in the beginning to have a few mechanics try to fix it, but they didn't. I even replaced the inlet and outlet 1 box pressure sensors because it gave me code
spn 3936 fm18 it relates to that, pressure out of range between inlet and outlet sensors. Still did not fix it I ended keeping the old sensors since they are still good due to that outcome. For now I just keep driving.

[@marklambert4793]

Thanks
I was just in this situation with a 2019.
But it might have had something to do with the truck sitting for an extended period of time without running.
Just a guess on my part 🤷‍♂️
This is just a loaner while my 2023 gets it’s steering gear box replaced.
Only 15,000 miles,
and it blew a seal! 😳🙄🤷‍♂️
But anyway,
Thanks for the information.
Subscribed! 👍

[@marklambert4793]

Update:
I tried switching the battery switch off for about 45 minutes.
But it’s still on.

[@chrisjonga]

Good looking out brother, you just saved me over $200

[@collin4380]

Did it clear itself?

[@geesigunirifayso305]

Thanks

[@Goloso333]

I am suspecting that it requires regenerating, but my regeneration is not working, that means a filter is dirty...I am not sure what to do at this moment.

[@ryanlevron1972]

It never required regeneration for me.

[@vicpetrishak7705]

The only thing you will learn from this video is a solid yellow light , MIL , and a cat climbing a tree , that is all !

[@jalalmoussali2532]

[@aubainetornade5880]

[@johnberry8117]

Def filters need to be cleaned or changed.😮

[@ehminnesota5835]

I change def pamper 3 weeks ago I see engine light today

[@ronculp9039]

HORRIBLE ADVICE IF YOU OWN THE TRUCK. IGNORINING THE LIGHT WILL COST YOU MORE IN MONEY AND DOWN TIME LATER ON. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS ADVICE SERIOUSLY . I WONDER WHY HE HAD 2 TRUCKS TAKE A DUMP IN ONLY A FEW YEARS. COMPANYS WILL DO THIS TO TRY TO SAVE THE MONEY KNOWING THERE ON A TRADE IN CYCLE AND NOT WANTING TO MAINTAIN THE EQUIPMENT.

[@ryanlevron1972]

You could very well be right... Could be one good reason that being an owner operator was not meant for me....
Thank you for your comment

[@RomanEmpire16]

Thats the worse advice ever man ignoring mil lights will get you were you are now two trucks gone to shit and on TH-cam giving out bad information that light usually is related to DPF warning ⚠️ problems usually a sensor

[@ryanlevron1972]

May be bad advice... but if its good enough for a major corporation with several thousand trucks... then its good enough for me.. and iit works the way our maintenance dept has taught.. so.. i teach what ive learned works

[@Dean-pc1ok]

Have heard the same advice with mil light , throwing thousands in parts and diag will not guarantee anything

[@Goloso333]

Thank you
