- 2014 Freightliner Cascadia The kill switch on the floor next to the drivers seat went bad, with some info on what to look for if troubleshooting.
If your truck is shutting down and turning back on when you hit a bump, it could be this cutoff switch, but more likely the PNBD box is going bad.
Thank you so much because for your instructions I repaired my truck Cascadia 2012
Jair Cabal glad I could help!
Hey w c, i can't thank you enough. Just bought my first truck first night out my switch went out. All i knew was my truck was getting no power. My wife said (look it up on UA-cam), exactly what you explain was happening was the same as me. My switch twisted 360, blinkers everything. I got to the nearest freightliner bought the $82 Switch 10mins of labor (4 screws) wahla i got power. I thought i would have to get tolled it would've been over a grand in all of it wasn't for your video. Thanks again!!!
Bryan Moore That’s great, glad I could help. when you have the few hundred dollars I’d buy that PNBD box also that is bolted on the firewall that I pointed out in the video. Carry it with you in the truck. They are known that the relay goes bad, and you’ll have no power, or it will shut the truck off when you hit a bump and come back on going down the road. There is actually a technical bulletin from Freightliner with instructions on how to by pass and put in a older style relay box at the batteries. I just carry a new PNDB box in the truck if it goes bad. I have a few other videos on the truck and adding more.
Also would strongly advise get the diagnostic software subscription from Freightliner and a used NEXIQ connector so you can hook up your laptop to the truck to diagnose issues and not go into Freightliner. $500 a year for the subscription, and $300 for used NEXIQ. Already saved me a $1000 dollars this year. So will pay for itself the first time you don’t have to go to the shop. Good Luck to you!
@@wesley_scott hey thanks, i was wondering could i get the software to diagnose myself im sure it would be very useful. Soon as i can i will do that. Yes the pndb was $400+ but i will get it in case. I appreciate all the great info thanks and be safe! Will stay tuned in on all your great videos
Bro thank you i couldn’t figure it out shy it kept dying while driving an whole switch turns 360

I just had that problem with mine and all I did was disconnect the harness and made a 4 way contact in the plug with a wire all of them making contact and then removed the wire without concentrating back to the kill switch otherwise it will turn off the relay with that being said you could turn your key on or off and it will work hope that helps someone
I wish I had seen this video. I had a feeling mine was going bad. It went bad when I was at the dealer shop and had to pay about $600 so they could fix it. The work seems simple.
I don't know how I found your site, but I'm glad I did. I have a 2014 also. I can share a lot of different things about issues on them too. If anyone has questions.. 460,000 miles, old covenant truck.
If you're here, can you over run the automatic truck 5min shutdown
Would like to know issues found along the way
@@yeb7997 The truck had 340,000 miles when I bought it, it's got 530,000 now. I put in a new clutch, @490,000 (but it could have gone longer)new starter, new batteries, new heater fan, left King pin, original def filters, never had to do a stopped regen. DD-15, 10 speed. That's it, it's been an awesome truck....bty.. I never idile it..
@@skim4me nicee. It's funny because I'm looking at a 2014 cascadia with 490k miles with a dd13 except it's an Auto listed for 28k. I would have to look at the maintenance records to see about it. Haven't physically looked at it yet though. Thank you for that info on your truck.
@@yeb7997 I don't care too much for the dd13.. don't what the life is expendency of an auto shifter is either. I'd go with a bullet proof 10 speed, a DD-15..
My dash lights are blink the kill switch is blinking the fuse box is blink and the truck won’t start 🤦🏻♂️holy shit hopefully I can find some corrosion
Thanks man I was wondering what that red light was for now I know I had to pull out Driver manual to find the name for it I didn’t kno it was that bad
Changed the switch didn't solve the problem im going to change the PDNB box on the fire wall next
Did changing it work?
They need to recall all the Freightliner
Can you bypass the switch
Can anyone tell me do i have to disconnect the batteries before changing the switch or just unplug the old one and plug in the new switch
Dan Eshenbaugh no need to disconnect the batteries.
You can just unplug the switch
That’s not true, as that’s the first thing I tried.
Can we just bypass the kill switch
Ace King it’s a $80 part that might go bad every few years, don’t really see the reason to unless you don’t have $80 to buy a new one. Just put a new one in and never use it.
But my red light not work so wht i do
Good video. Had a road call for no voltage. Same symptoms.
Thanks for the video! Helped a lot!
Mines has full power. Im taking the july 4 weekend off. But when i turn the switch to off. It doesnt shut all the power off. The power stays “on”. Would i need to replace that switch?
Yes that’s where I would start as it’s a fairly cheap part and super simple to replace.
Did you solve your problem? Mine does not shut off when i turn nob off and it keeps blinking
@@satti1001 replace the switch it is easy
Replacing the switch didn't fix mine so must be a bad pndb. Mine won't kill the power when I turn the switch off.
@@matthewreese6104 i replaced PNDB and it does not fix the problem, changed the kill swith and it is fixed
How did it work out changing the pndb box?
Unique Homes Did not change out the PNDB box, have a new one in the truck when it does go bad though. Kill switch was the problem. Easy cheap fix at $80 and doing it myself.
@@wesley_scott hey thanks for the the update it ended up being my CPC needed replacement.
How much was the PNDB Box?
FMIV1405 it’s like $430 or so.
@@LSXPerformance $290 PNDB box
Help me out
Cand belive this much stuff can go out on these trucks😡
They should not design kill switch suck
They are meant for mechanic shops to turn off all accessories inside the truck or when the truck is shut down for more than 3 days or so. Otherwise, you’ll be dealing with low battery problems.
Don't buy a Freightliner is suck
Ace King it’s a truck that makes me money, not really concerned with the brand to be honest as they are all more or less the same.
