ISSUE
Some 2005-2006 E-Series vehicles built through 6/12/2006 and 2005-2007 F-Super Duty vehicles built through 6/5/2006, equipped with a 6.0L diesel engine may exhibit the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P2138 P2139, and P2140.

ACTION
Reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) to the latest calibration using IDS release IDS-45.8 and higher. This new calibration is not included in the 2006.9 DVD. This calibration contains a revised strategy to eliminate the occurrence of a false P2138, P2139, or P2140. Calibration files may also be obtained at the website. Follow normal diagnostics if any of these DTCs still occur after reprogramming.
