Lock up box and tps error

[N2BRK]

I bought the box used from a member here a few weeks ago. I love it! But this morning I popped a P2138. I reset it and nothing came back yet. Any ideas on this?

Thanks!!

Which box

2138 and 2140 will be thrown any time the box is used. Typically they are ghost codes and will not set the light.

Which box

Title says BT

2138 and 2140 will be thrown any time the box is used. Typically they are ghost codes and will not set the light.

The codes associated with the box are 1271 and 1272 unless the 6 speed box is different.

OP double check all of your connections, solder the connections too don't use the t-taps.

Thanks. Yep it's the 6 speed BT box. My truck flashed an Engine Power Reduced message at me this morning, which prompted me checking codes. Most connections are soldered, but I did use tap ins on the TPS and ground to the BCM.

It's the first hiccup since I installed a few weeks ago. I'm away from home on business until Sunday, so I can't do much right now.

 

[N2BRK]

Just fired up again. First since yesterday morning. Threw the code again right away. Damn

 

[N2BRK]

Interesting. Keeps throwing it. Box not coming on either. I'd better check fuse and connections when I get home

 

[OregonDMAX]

It's throwing the code when you start the truck or when you use the box or arm the box?

 

[N2BRK]

Start the truck and before I make it a block or so, it throws. I did not try to arm. Last time I noticed no light, so I tried to arm and nothing happened.

 

[N2BRK]

Temps are so low lately, that the trans would be too cold to arm even if I tried

 

[N2BRK]

Uh oh. Now it's every time that I stop. I made it through my appointments tonight with one hand on the wheel and one on the clear dtc codes button :thumb: hope to make it home.

 

[N2BRK]

I decided to try for home tonight instead of tomorrow. Each stop it limped. Anything more than light throttle it limped. At least I'm home. Hopefully I can find something tomorrow.

 

[OregonDMAX]

On of these codes is a throttle code, if you unplug the box what happens

 

[N2BRK]

Unugged it all. P2761. Going to just unplug controller next I guess

 

[N2BRK]

Same thing.

 

[N2BRK]

Soldered all. :facepalm. Works

 

[N2BRK]

Quick disconnect got loose. Just took a very sideways test drive :woott:

 

[OregonDMAX]

I had the same problem they why I soldered everything.

Glad you got it fixed!

Sorry I didnt see this until now, I was away all weekend.

9 times out of 10, its wiring issues with these modules. I always tell people to solder if possible.
