DD13 DETROIT ENGINE DASH LIGHTS
High Exhaust Temp Light: Get tractor up to highway speed
A.S.A.P. to increase air flow. Pulling over will only prolong the light since you do
not have air flow to help cool it
DPF Regen Lamp: Drive the tractor at highway speed and let it
do an auto regen of the DPF. We do not need to pull over and do a parked
regen. The system will take care of it as long as we keep the temperature up.
“Drive it like you stole it”. Doesn’t hurt to drop a gear if the temp does not stay
up.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL): This is an
indicator light, not a warning or shut down light. Can be driven to
end of shift. No repairs are needed unless the light is on after the 3rd shift
of driving. It could be for something as simple as a dash light bulb being
burnt out but not an out of service item.
