Hey guys , new to this thread. Created a problem by myself that maybe I could get some advice for before I go end up spending a thousand dollars to fix it.
I've got a 2012 6.7 litre , aftermarket radio.
I took the dash apart to install a flush mount USB unit from the deck, unplugged all of the connection harnesses. Accidentally turned the truck on with all the connectors unplugged. Saw a few codes come up , so I turned it off. Ended up leaving it like that for a few days. Then went and plugged everything back in, and turned it on. Now I have a hard check engine light on.
My exhaust brake doesn't work. And because there is a check engine light on, the remote start is useless because it turns off after 8 seconds or so.
My ODB reader was unable to reset the code , even the dealership couldn't reset the code...
If you would like to know what codes appear then I will have to redo it because I did not write them down, thinking that was irrelevant because I literally didn't do anything with any of the wiring. Just unplugged the harnesses and plugged them back in.
Lesson learned , unplug the batteries, as I should have remembered to do . I'm an electrician I got complacent.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
