lockmup68 Posted October 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 SWEET!!! Glad you got it fixed. The finally figured it out and I picked it up Friday at 3 pm. Had to get the lettering on the truck, change out the back-up camera, get loaded up, Escape loaded up, and then on the road. Drove Nashville to St. Louis Friday night, arriving about 1 am. Saturday, lazy day to cousins in Kansas City, Sunday rolled in to Hutchinson. We are having a good time and learning.

Andy730 Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 HI im new to this. I was wondering if i can get help. So bit of a story. I bought a kenworth with a ZF Transmission its 12 speed automatic couple months back. So when i got this truck the transmission wouldn't get out of neutral until it hit the 2 hour mark of being warmed up. On the dash it started displaying the code SM and CH on the ZF gauge. I took it to the dealer to see whats going on and they messed everything up. Now the code EE displayed and the gear light F N R doesn't come on. No longer goes into gear. My question is for anyone that can help me figure out what the problem is or any ideas of what I can do. Thanks, anything helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hone eagle Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 start with cleaning EVERY connection in the battery area ,can't send a picture but look at the connector to the batteries and trans (usually just laying on top of the batteries ,wiggle and pull on them- mine came apart in my hand ,check ground. i had the same message -SM,thought it meant 'select manual' drove it home from alberta no harm done. again electrical connections must be pristine ,my freedom line 'guy' instructs fleet mechanics "clean every connection every year" Quote 2005 volvo 670 freedomline singledNewmar Torrey Pine 34rskswoot woot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least 90 psi. Check valve on tank? Any code on display?there is also an in line fuse direct to the batteries that is usually off the battery bank harness.

lockmup68 Posted April 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2020 Also, if no lights on the display, make sure they cleared the codes out and reset everything. I had no lights and there was a hidden ABS code in the computer that just needed to be cleared. Cleared all codes and then display came back on and everything worked fine after that.

Getting ideas from friends they were also saying sensors, wiring, but shocking part is, it went in the dealer perfectly drive able and when they were done with it just stopped working and the EE code appeared. No other codes or lights. The air in tank gets full, no leaks. Someone said they stopped on purposely so they can charge a good amount to make money. so first i will make sure to check the speed sensors and battery terminals for the transmission. Is the In line fuse right on the battery? Is there any other steps to check after i done all the listed things above? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you go through the diagnostic steps for the EE code? The manual is very, very detailed and easy to understand. If it worked when you took it in, it must come out in same or better condition. I would contact the shop and if they don’t resolve, contact better business bureau.
