matthew Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 can you disable this completely? stop it from going into limp home mode!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Browning Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Since the WIF sensor is a normally open switch, disconnectinf the sensor and clearing the code will likely be the temporary fix you are looking for, as there is no permanent way to disable it, nor should you. Of course, this will not work if you have a wiring or module concern. I assume you verified there is no water in the DCFM and suspect that the sensor and housing are mucked up.

Alex Bruene Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 The engine protection strategy is in place for a reason. 6.4 fuel systems don't like water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Why not just fix the problem? Gummed up sensor, crappy fuel, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Mutter Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 This is kind of on topic,did you here about the fuel station near Minneapolis that got purposely contaminated diesel fuel. There are a lot of trucks down because of this. That sucks big time!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 What's it contaminated with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikill Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 You or the customer can fix it cheap now and pay better attention to draining the HFCM or pay a $10,000 bill later. Like it's been said earlier it's there for a reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselD Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 that is alot of work to turn off a water in fuel light. Hope you actually do not have any contaminated fuel otherwise all those fancy parts wont do much when it wont run. I had one of our guys ignore the water in fuel warnings....end result was engine replacement. Just something to think about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmorris Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Wouldn't be easier just to add in a second filter/separator unit if he is that concerned. I never did understand the concept of running a diesel off road. Wouldn't you get better response out of a hopped up gasser, better for wheel spin IMHO.
