Hey guys.
My T1N recently started dying when idling. It seems to die about 1x per ~30 minute drive. There is no signs that it is about to die, it just shuts off with a very slight "jerk."
The first time it started right back up.
The 2nd time, it would not even try starting up and I had to put it in park, take the key out, and try again. It started right up after this.
The 3rd time it died it just kept trying to start. I pushed the gas pedal slightly and it started up.
I got a code scanner (Autel MD802 all systems) and checked the codes. There were some glow plug codes and CAN fault codes (P1927, P1925, 563E, and 5154 but they were labelled as "stored" not "current." The only "current" code was P1926 which I've read is to be ignored. I also had some RADIO codes).
The 4th time it died while I was in a parking spot, and I tried starting it 4-5 times to no avail. The CEL came on during this, but I thought it would still be on and I could read the codes later. I let it sit for about 30-40 minutes while I ate, then when I came back to the van I turned the key all the way over to the accessory position 3-4 times (to engage the fuel pump).
After that, it started right up again. The CEL also went away once it started up.
I am also not sure I am using the scanner 100% correctly. I noticed some of the stored codes had the mileage of 95,000 or so. I tried clearing them with the scanner, but when I ran the system scan (Scan->European->Sprinter->1.Sprinter->
3.YD.; WD.; XD.(KWP 2001-2006)->
3.USA, Canada->) they seemed to come right back but still showed as "stored" and not "current."
