Now I had a long discussion with Yankneck696 about this. Yes, Yankneck696 has one as well he uses for diagnostic work. The OBDLink LX is the one you want unless you plan on using it for new Fords and GM products then you need the OBDLink MX which covers the newer Fords and GM products. Now there is more to this the OBDLink LX has the ability of working with a terminal (modem terminal) and taking custom commands to dig deeper into your ECM/PCM looking for information. My current challenge is getting a grip on the Cummins hidden information and where its at. But first thing first get the hang of producing a common gauge like coolant and understanding the PID's and MODE's. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OBD-II_PIDs Thing is there is very little if any information on the web for the dodge Cummins in the way of PID information and very few people are even using this method of data reading. So I'm working at compiling information ASAP for the group here. I'm hoping to get other involved to start a list for 3rd and 4th Gen too. Another factor was Cowboy and his custom setup for 12V so when I start studying about the Bluetooth dongles I jump in with both feet and moved foreward. As for softwares for Android... Torque https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.prowl.torque&hl=en DashCommand https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.palmerperformance.DashCommand&hl=en OBDLink - FREE app for OBDLink owners fully unlocked. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=OCTech.Mobile.Applications.OBDLink&hl=en Thing I love is.. The Android Tablet is Linux based, my home computers are all Linux based... So far I've got much more power and control over the OBDLink compared to ScanGauge II which seem so limited now.

Yes. Also allows for clearing all codes. Why I'm going this route is to dig deeper like fuel temp at the VP44 which I know I can do. Now dreaming, maybe how many degrees of timing advancement on the Vp44...

Opps... All I did was... And JAG1 had a perma-smile from ear to ear. All I did was pull up Goose Creek grade in 4th squeezed the throttle a bit deeper than normal and the rear tires let go. JAG1 was shocked when the truck pulled a bit sideways around the corner just as the rear tires broke lose. What was funny was he asked me to drive his truck after installing the injection pump. I knew I couldn't because I'd have to put my boot through the floor to make it pull like mine. So I stayed a passenger for the sake of his stock tranny. So JAG1 is off to work to get paid so he can cure his sickness... I know he feels the love here...

So far the Torque App only see speed and RPM that's it. Can't see coolant temp, IAT temp, etc. At least with the OBDLink it will run through the PID's searching for active data. My problem is now digging into the enhanced data and what mode number and what the PID's are. So far just trying to do a second coolant gauge (Custom PID) comes up dead. I've got two documents up there with PID's and one is in decimal and the other is in hexadecimal. Now my question is when entering information is it entered in decimal or hexadecimal? Digging the internal for documents for any of these apps is pretty thin. If I can just figure out one gauge then I'll know the format...

Since I've been a big pusher of the ScanGauge II I'm now moving away from them. Being I picked up a Android Tablet for working on the web site I figured I would now pick up a OBDLink LX Bluetooth for diagnostics and also enhanced data. Like SmartyTouch has enhanced data like fuel temp and other things like Quadzilla and Edge does too. So if a person wants this information your stuck buying a expensive product. Now I'm working to get this data for the Common Joe. Here is what I've got... http://www.obdlink.com/lxbt/ Now here is the documents I've found for this project. saeJ1979_2006-08-25Ballot.pdf ISB_TROUBLESHOOTING_VOL_2.pdf 54262388-Cummins-Isb-Chrysler-FIS3666288.pdf ELM327DSF.pdf SAE J2178_2v002.pdf K-line communication description_V3 0(1).pdf Now I got to start probing the ECM for the data I'm looking for. I'll keep posting information as I find it. Just a quick screen shot of the stock OBDLink Software and the few gauges.

No such thing... It was barely under 80*F all the time...

Well I made it back from Huntington, OR just now. Good trip home being we waited for the storm to pass. JAG1 drove through it. (Covering Eyes) but I see he made it just fine. Sounds like BOMB (Better Of Modified Baby!) bug bit you. I've got to admit we had a wonderful time hanging out for a week. JAG1 is a awesome character to get to know. Sure has a wonderful talent for working with wood. I hope to see him again in the near future. Weather should be warmer and less snow. But here is a few pictures of our camp out in Huntington, OR.

As of right now I'm at 7 cords of wood consumed. Still burning wood every day yet. Start burning typically in October and burn till almost June usually. No backup furnace or automatic heat... All heat is from firewood. I'm not like most that set a thermostat and walk away during the day and then build a fire at night when they get home. So the electric furnace or propane furnace is going mos of the day and then burning only a small 2-3 cords a season.

I typically sneak a 128:1 ratio shot of 2 cycle oil into my Chevy 6.5L diesel fire truck.

Most fabric shops have headliner fabric for sale. You can peel the fabric off the base material and then reinstall new fabric.

While JAG1 was here we had him do some wood working. So I had to show it off... Yeah I know I should had the picture while they were hung on the wall but... I was in the hurry...

You still have to unplug the field lead from the alternator as well. Retest and report again.

Yeah the code is now gone. I grabbed my scanguage and reset the code for him. I figure the next time he comes back down I'll plan on doing the other other gasket for him. Conversion might take a bit more consideration.

http://forum.mopar1973man.com/index.php?/topic/9875-2002-hard-start-occasional-stall-not-fuel-related-this-time/#entry109134 Verified the file on the server is still good and functional. It must be something anti-virus or Windows wise causing your problem. Possible that the ECM tables are screwed up and the data for cold coolant and IAT temps are screwed up. Possible there is a cracked solder joint maybe causing issues and does better when its warm. 2002-Dodge-Cummins-power dist.pdf

Pig... Ahh... Bring a Elk then he get FREE stay... Yes I got a welder but its a basic one. Cheap Harbor Freight...

Ok... Camping is $15 a night without hook ups. $17 a night with power. If you bring the beer it a automatic $5 discount.

Hey now. Mopar1973Man Fest... JAG1 has been driving on this old pump now for 4 years with P0216 code and driving back and forth to his Mom's place in Az. That really crazy.

I think someone needs to update the article...

Here you go... 2002-Dodge-Cummins-trailer plug.pdf

True to a point. With daylight running out both getting tired and few other side project occur the one gasket was skipped.

You might have to unplug something like a coolant temp sensor and trip a hard fault that triggers a error and then the Edge module will reset properly. Like my 02 does the same thing like P0500 code is not reset-able but trip a hard code like temp sensor and now you can.

I see people relying on rear camera too much and end up striking something on the side of the cab or trailer. This because the driver is busy watching the camera too much and not the sides of the cab or the side of the trailer in the mirrors. So be careful still.

Well today was long day. Started out changing JAG1 injection pump and found the grid heater gasket were brittle and tore. So I stopped and ordered a intake gasket kit to get the two new gaskets for the grid heater. So ran to McCall and picked up the gasket and ran back. Finished up the injection pump install. JAG1 had picked up a cam sensor and installed that as well. But everything worked out good. Busted JAG1 trying to escape the camera...

Posted in the 12V so I'm assuming P7100 pump. On a 24V truck I would look at the fuel pump relay in thee PDC to see if its stuck ON. If so them the the VP44 remains powered up. Just swap fuel pump relay with something else to verify.

I just done a 3rd Gen a week ago and we beat on that hub for quite a while to get it to move. Eventually the hub moved and we kept beating on the bolts to get it out. Using a grinder straighten out the beat bolts. But during the installation of the bearing we mopped on the anti-seize on everything.
