Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

SB-16-019 An enhanced fuel cut valve is available to address a potential sticking condition that results in excess residual pressure in the dosing injector (7thinjector) supply pipe. A sticking fuel cut valve may result in the following DTC?s (diagnostic trouble codes) setting: 1. If DTC P0005 (fuel cut valve stuck closed) sets in the engine ECU, replace the fuel cut valve with the part number listed below. 2. If DTC P20DE (pressure sensor performance invalid) or DTC P20DF (pressure sensor signal too low) set in the engine ECU, this could be a result of the fuel cut valve sticking. Follow the workshop manual diagnostic procedure in section 4 of the Hino Workshop Manual (J08E Engine Control System) for the DTC. Also, inspect for signs of fuel contamination that could restrict the fuel filter or bubble separator filter. If no issues are identified with fuel contamination, and the workshop manual procedure does not identify a concern, replace the fuel cut valve with the part number listed below.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

SB-16-015 Enhanced DCU (Dosing Control Unit) software has been released.Illumination of the check engine light. The DCU may falsely detect an issue and record any of the 3 following DTC?s in the DCU. P142A(DEF pump temperature sensor - Out of range) P204B(DEF pressure sensor ? Rationality) P20A1(Reverting valve for DEF pump stuck close) In rare cases, the completion of the after-run process might be mistakenly aborted. This occurs when the ignition key is cycled back on and then off prior to after-run completion. If this occurs when ambient temperatures are below freezing and the urea is allowed to fully freeze, internal damage to the DEF pump may occur. Once damaged, urea could migrate into the DEF pump electrical connector and SCR harness resulting in corrosion. This corrosion could result in detection of any combination of SCR(Selective Catalyst Reductant) DTC?s including but not limited to: P142A(DEF pump temperature sensor - Out of range) P208A(DEF pump motor circuit - Open load) P208B(DEF pump motor - Functional) The enhanced DCU software prevents the after-run process from being aborted prior to completion.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

SB-16-006 Some vehicles built before January 2016 and equipped with a leaf spring rear suspension may experience a dislodged or missing spring pad. As an enhancement, the rear axle leaf spring hanger design has been changed to eliminate the spring pad. In the event that one or more spring pads have become dislodged or found missing, all four rear axle leaf spring hangers should be replaced with the enhanced design hangers.

In the event that a subject vehicle exhibits an illuminated check engine lamp and DTC?s P2201, P2214, P206B, P207F, or P20EE are stored in the DCU, the NOX sensor may have failed due to a cracked NOX sensor heating element. Follow the revised Workshop Manual diagnostic procedure to determine if the NOX sensor has failed. 2. Enhanced DCU software is available to prevent the NOX sensor heating element from cracking due to exposure of condensation on the heating element. 3. The enhanced DCU software will also prevent false detections of DTC P142A being set in the DCU.
