I have a 2005 Ducato 2.8JTD motorhome. It has recently started going into limp mode and showing EML when accelerating up hills. If I drop back to a lower gear and go easy on the accelerator, the light usually goes out again and normal driving resumed. The light is now coming on more frequently though, and staying on for the remainder of the journey, even though performance doesn't seem to be affected when not on a hill or under heavy load.
I installed multiecuscan and have it working. There were 3x codes initially, I think 2x were related to boost issues and another was P0202 for the #2 injector fault. I should have written down the other codes but forgot. After resetting, I went for a run up a long hill but EML didn't light up and I didn't lose power, which is unusual as it always does it on this hill. Anyway, the light did come back on later while the engine was not under load at about 2k RPM and it's only the injector fault that's recurring for now.
I carried out a leak back test and didn't see any major difference with #2 injector although #3 did seem to leak back more than the others. I removed both the #2 and #3 injectors and plan to switch them around and see if the code stays at #2 or changes to #3. Do these injectors need to be coded? I don't get any trim readings in multiecuscan. I'm not sure if this is because its a free version or if this option isn't available on my engine?
