P1040 on 2008 6.7 Check engine light

I just installed this unit and the check engine light came on. Removed it and brought into the dealer and had a fuel delivery code. Had a full service and put the unit back in. Drove for a few days and the code came back on.

Is this a common problem?

Is there something wrong with my unit?

Thanks

Sounds like it may have a loose connection in the harness, may want to contact the dealer and see if they can swap it out for you.

I assuming you mean the puck harness?

Also I noticed the light comes and goes.

Thanks

OK, that sounds even more like an intermittent connection issue in the harness (for the puck).

I just installed the PPE on my Dodge 6.7 and it set off the check engine light. I checked all my connections and they are fine. Is this something that i will just have to live with? Or is this something that is not supposed to happen?
Please let me know what i need to do to fix this!! i want to keep the power puck, it is awesome!

-thanks

Can you find out what the code is?

I have one customer who is having the same issue. Low fuel pressure code when the PPE is installed. It ran fine for a couple weeks then started throwing the codes. Had it to the dealer and the fuel pressure actual is lower than the desired while the PPE is on.

Good (clean) fuel filter?

Yeah, I think almost everything in the fuel system other than injectors and lines has been changed by the dealer. This truck is owned by a "well known" individual and the dealer went through and changed a bunch of stuff. Then when they put the PPE back on it started throwing the fuel code for low fuel pressure again.

I have the PPE in my hands now. Should I send it back to you guys?
