Service bulletins

145 bulletins

Technical service bulletins are instructions a manufacturer sent its dealers about a known fault. They are not recalls and the work is usually not free, but they are the clearest signal of a problem the manufacturer already knows about.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

ON CERTAIN MACK MODELS, BUILT BETWEEN 09/08/2011 AND 05/09/2013, WITH PID CODE 3230002 ENGINE, THERE WILL BE NO ROAD SPEED LIMIT, WARNING LIGHT OR BUZZER WHEN THE SUSPENSION IS LEFT DUMPED. THIS IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE SOFTWARE IN THE VECU DID NOT SUPPORT VENDOR ENGINES FOR THIS FUNCTION.

FSB 593-013

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

ON SOME MACK CHU, CXU, GU, AND TD TRUCK MODELS BUILT BETWEEN 04/31/2008 AND 05/12/2014, THE SOLENOID VALVE FOR THE GRADE GRIPPER FEATURE IS PRONE TO INTERNAL CONTAMINATION IN HARSH ENVIRONMENTS. THE INTERNAL CONTAMINATION OF THE SOLENOID VALVE IS CAUSED BY THE BUILDUP OF GRIME, SALT, ROAD DEBRIS AND OTHER SOLID CONTAMINANTS. IN SOME CASES, THE BUILD-UP OF SOLID CONTAMINANTS CAUSED THE SOLENOID VALVE TO MALFUNCTION. THE MALFUNCTION CAUSES THE TRAILER BRAKE CIRCUIT TO MAINTAIN TRAILER BRAKE PRESSURE AFTER A GRADE GRIPPER EVENT.

MACK TRUCKS INC. HAS DETERMINED THE CAP NUT THAT RETAINS THE INTERAXLE DRIVESHAFT YOKE TO THE REAR AXLE INPUT SHAFT MAY BE SUBJECT TO PREMATURE LOOSENING ON CERTAIN CHU, CMH, CMM, CXU, GU, LEU, LR, MRU AND TD MODEL VEHICLES. THE POTENTIAL RISK IS THAT IF THE NUT COMES OFF, THE YOKE CAN SEPARATE FROM THE AXLE INPUT SHAFT AND CAUSE THE DRIVESHAFT TO DISCONNECT. IF THIS OCCURS, A DISCONNECTED DRIVESHAFT CAN DISABLE THE VEHICLE AND RESULT IN DEBRIS IN THE ROADWAY, WHICH INCREASES THE RISK OF A VEHICLE CRASH.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

GRADE GRIPPER SOLENOID, REPLACEMENT. ON SOME MACK CHU, CXU, GU, AND TD TRUCK MODELS BUILT BETWEEN 04/31/2008 AND 11/30/2015, THE SOLENOID VALVE FOR THE GRADE GRIPPER FEATURE IS PRONE TO INTERNAL CONTAMINATION IN HARSH ENVIRONMENTS. THE INTERNAL CONTAMINATION OF THE SOLENOID VALVE IS CAUSED BY THE BUILDUP OF GRIME, SALT, ROAD DEBRIS AND OTHER SOLID CONTAMINANTS. IN SOME CASES, THE BUILDUP OF SOLID CONTAMINANTS CAUSED THE SOLENOID VALVE TO MALFUNCTION. A SIMILAR MALFUNCTION IS POSSIBLE IF THE SOLENOID VALVE IS EQUIPPED WITH A VENT FITTING THAT FREEZES OVER. THE MALFUNCTION CAUSES THE TRAILER BRAKE CIRCUIT TO MAINTAIN TRAILER BRAKE PRESSURE AFTER A GRADE GRIPPER EVENT.

FSB 593 013

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

On some MACK CHU, CXU, GU, and TD truck models built between 04/31/2008 and 11/30/2015, the solenoid valve for the grade gripper feature is prone to internal contamination in harsh environments. The internal contamination of the solenoid valve is caused by the buildup of grime, salt, road debris and other solid contaminants. In some cases, the buildup of solid contaminants caused the solenoid valve to malfunction. A similar malfunction is possible if the solenoid valve is equipped with a vent fitting that freezes over. The malfunction causes the trailer brake circuit to maintain trailer brake pressure after a grade gripper event. Replacement of the existing solenoid valve, elbow, and the addition of a new tube fitting and tube will ensure proper functionality of the grade gripper feature.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

EGR MASS FLOW RATE LOW. THIS BULLETIN IS RELEASED TO ADDRESS HIGH COUNTS OF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) SPN 2659 FMI 18 OR P0401 ONLY DURING NORMAL TO HIGH LOAD DRIVING CONDITIONS ON VEHICLES ASSEMBLED BETWEEN JANUARY 2010 AND DECEMBER 2013. IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT DEPOSITS IN THE EGR COOLER CAN BUILD UP AND CAUSE HIGH RESTRICTION OVER TIME. THIS HIGH RESTRICTION PREVENTS THE REQUIRED AMOUNT OF EGR GAS FROM FLOWING THROUGH THE EGR COOLER CREATING DTC SPN 2659 FMI 18 OR P0401 EGR MASS FLOW RATE LOW TO BE LOGGED INTERMITTENTLY. NORMALLY, THIS IS ONLY REPORTED ON HIGHER MILEAGE VEHICLES.

GRADE GRIPPER QUICK RELEASE VALVE, REPLACEMENT. ON SOME MACK CHU, CXU, AND GU TRUCKS BUILT BETWEEN 04/31/2008 AND 01/05/2015, AND EQUIPPED WITH THE GRADE GRIPPER FUNCTION MAY EXPERIENCE A SLOW RELEASE OF THE TRAILER’S SERVICE BRAKES. ADDITIONALLY, A DELAY IN THE RELEASE OF THE GRADE GRIPPER FUNCTION MAY BE CAUSED BY CERTAIN TRUCK OPTIONS AND TRAILER COMBINATIONS USED BY THE OPERATOR.

GRADE GRIPPER SOLENOID, REPLACEMENT. ON SOME MACK CHU, CXU, GU, AND TD TRUCK MODELS BUILT BETWEEN 04/31/2008 AND 05/12/2014, THE SOLENOID VALVE FOR THE GRADE GRIPPER FEATURE IS PRONE TO INTERNAL CONTAMINATION IN HARSH ENVIRONMENTS. THE INTERNAL CONTAMINATION OF THE SOLENOID VALVE IS CAUSED BY THE BUILDUP OF GRIME, SALT, ROAD DEBRIS AND OTHER SOLID CONTAMINANTS. IN SOME CASES, THE BUILD-UP OF SOLID CONTAMINANTS CAUSED THE SOLENOID VALVE TO MALFUNCTION. THE MALFUNCTION CAUSES THE TRAILER BRAKE CIRCUIT TO MAINTAIN TRAILER BRAKE PRESSURE AFTER A GRADE GRIPPER EVENT. REPLACEMENT OF THE EXISTING SOLENOID VALVE, ELBOW, AND THE ADDITION OF A NEW VENT WILL ENSURE PROPER FUNCTIONALITY OF THE GRADE GRIPPER FEATURE.

Brake Drum, Replacement (Steer Axle) Some MACK CHU, CXU, GU, and TD trucks built between 08/29/2011 and 06/30/2014, equipped with a MACK 14.6k steer axle, unitized hub, and 152 mm (6.0 in) wide Bendix brake shoes can show signs of brake shoe protrusion beyond the brake drum. This condition is resolved by installing new 152 mm (6.0 in) brake shoes, 178 mm (7.0 in) wide brake drums (20536276), new dust shields, and replace the existing Z-Brackets.
