The newer trucks throw codes for lots of things usually not dangerous, usually a sensor out of parameters, you can read the codes off of the people net ,30 yr crete driver here msg me if you need some help or advice also I'm an owner operator for a long time so I've had to figure alot of stuff out over the years
Same deal with Catapiller trucks. Our truck shop has a computer program that reads the truck sensors and tells us to keep rolling or park the truck in a safe location, hopefully in the mine.
There should be a diagnostic screen you can check when you have an issue like that. Some companies disable it because they don't think drivers are smart enough to try to diagnose problems or don't want drivers trying to be mechanics. But of it is available, the diagnostic screen cam give you an idea of the severity of the problem. If it is an orange light, it has to do with the emissions system, if it os more yellow, it is an engine issue. I was actually laughing when I watched the kw vs cascadia video and Kevin was saying how freightliner has been more reliable. I kept thinking " just wait". 😁 Hopefully he was right but don't be surprised if he wasn't.
My late husband worked for Crete for 14 years. He worked for Martin and Heartland before that. I only worked for Crete for under 2 years. I am really impressed about the way they do business and listen to drivers (who are close to the action) but they also do what is good for the business. I got to learn the advantages of driving team that solo driving does not appeal to me. Besides the emotional toll it would be for me to drive without Edward. Crete is a great company!!
RIP Edward. Two years together in that truck team driving. We understand that it would be so strange without him. From your comments it’s obvious how much you loved him. And we just want to express our condolences for your loss. Glad to know he liked Crete.
I am just seeing this days later but since a couple of days now I also have a check engine light. I checked also to see there’s no leaks or anything weird going on but everythings ok. Heading to the Lakeland yard and having them check it out especially truck is running ok. No need for me to call breakdown. Probably just slows sensor in Kevin’s frieghtliner just like mine.
@@TheJoyofTrucking truck still down. They decided to check it out a day or two BEFORE I’m supposed to come back from hometime. Truck needs a deff pump replacement. Took forever for it to get to Lakeland. Now their waiting on Frieghtliner mechanic to come replace it. Hopefully by tomorrow or Friday it should be ready. Not expecting much from breakdown pay but at least it’s something.
Great job guys in all fairness I drive for con crete 👍 👌 and I broke down today myself as I rolled into the truckstop..I believe it's a radiator sensor we shall see. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊
On the newer cascadia, orange engine light could be comms error, antifreeze sensor error, is a biggy. Battery switch trick is key, check onboard readout if you have access. I never had one stay on, and stop me. Always check though. Good luck.
The 2018 Freightliner cascadia I was raving to you guys about getting 70 mph on the cruise just gotta error code after treatment system performance and engine derated to 55 mph. Luckily I was 45 miles from my terminal but I'm going to be down a day because they have to get the parts to fix it. Good luck n u guys are still doing a awesome job
Hey good morning yall. Yes that is a small pilot and they have showers when they work. The store across the road is a nice spot and the Tennessean was a nice place till they started tearing it down. I hope they rebuild. That's where me n husband always stop. Safe travels yall.
❤❤greatest channel of 🌎 n usa your number 1 viewer ❤ Kevin n Tonya r the greatest on you tube.. Kevin very professional.. n Tonya is supporting great wife,friend to him.... 2 wonderful people, Stay safe.. God bless u both ❤
That engine light is not as important as the othe 2. Truck is still drivable with that light. My freightliner that light came on and it was the NOX sensor was bad, but the truck was still drivable.
Hello Guys… Retired driver here… I travel I-65 south from time to time… and look for the less busy fuel stops to use,since I have have a gas motor home and tow a suv I need to use the gas side of the stop … What mm is that stop … Have a great day and safe travels… Thanks…
Hello there!!! Nice switch from truck to motorhome!! Hope you are enjoying!! Sorry…can’t remember, but if you get the free Truckerpath app it will show you all of the stops with extra info!! Enjoy your travels!!! I see another viewer said Exit 22. :-)
No worries that happens to these freightliners it's always something that triggers a sensor. A real problem is when your red check engine light comes on. Yes crete Schaefer and hunt same owner they are a great company. I've been driving for 30 years I only drove for the reefer team only for 3 months. I bought my own truck doing my own thing. This company is debt free when they need 500 to 600 trucks they just write a check. They are in the top five best companies in the country good luck.
30 years! Wow! Congratulations on a string career! Thanks for your endorsement of Crete!!! Good to hear from an experienced driver!!! We are happy with them. 😃
Great food But i had pintos collard greens fried chicken corn bread ice tea gosh it was good !!! OH YEA APPLE PIE!! LOVE YOUR CHANNEL KEEP THE GOOD WORK
Hi I noticed you take your seatbelt off when you back up quite often. I once saw some guy get a ticket at a truck stop, ever since then I’ve kept mine on.
@@vendingdudes Cop was at his truck and I saw him give him a ticket. Guy wasn’t wearing his seatbelt don’t know what to tell you. Maybe he filled him in not sure.
sorry i left a comment and i didnt watch the whole video and i said to shut all the power and i watched the video and you did exactky what i said.... but also sometimes if you just keep driving it itll go off by itself ...it may take a few hoyrs or even a day..thats what my freightliner does and if you want to keep your truck idling the teperature senser should be on the bottom side of the drivers mirror.. put a heating pad around the neck of yhe mirror so it touches the sensor anr use a belt to keep it tight and it fools the sensor..you truck will syay on..
OK guys I’m knee-deep in it now. I’ve been with Swift for two weeks about 25 hours away from getting my own truck and I just bought an RV. My house is for sale and I’m going nomad. #OffTheGrid. What do you guys do with your RV When you’re on the road? Do you keep it in a campground or do you put it in storage? Was thinking about leaving it at my DC, thoughts?
😳😳😳ALL IN!!!! Wow!!! We wish you well!! Should be in your own truck now! Hope it’s going well! We had the RV in campground a couple times when I (Tanja) was off the truck. Otherwise we stored it. So it will depend on how often you’re home if you want to set it up or store it. If you store it it’s extra time to set up each time. Are you visiting other places for home time? How much is the campground where you might want it? Many things to consider to see what’s best for you. Best of luck! Let us know how it goes!!
@@TheJoyofTrucking true. but I still don't think it's a terrible idea to keep one with you. So If your check engine light comes on you can just plug it in and it'll tell you the exact reason for.the check engine light. So you will know whether you want to try and limp it to a shop or if it'd be a safety hazard
random question.......... who does the editing of the vids and what do you use? was it tough to learn? Maybe even make a video about that process? Stay safe out there and hope you aren't down to long for the repair at the dealer.
Hello random question. I (Tanja) do everything UA-cam. I use my iPhone, iMovie, Tubebuddy. Self taught. Steep learning curve initially. Now just continuing to try and improve a bit every day. 😃😃😃

@@daviddownes8452 I know I was miserable driving a truck,no I wasn't miserable driving,driving was the best part is all the other bullshit was miserable
No regrets at all!! Much happier and better paid at Crete. Though we miss the nice terminals. 😉 We’ve had way less problems with this truck than the KW at Werner.

Can the adaptive cruise be disabled on these newer freightliner wout a hassle?
@@wilE6764 I believe it can but you need the program/computer to do it properly
Thank you so much!!! 39 years with Crete!?! Wow!! That’s a great sign about the company!!!
Nope, it’s just a Cascadia built in Mexico thing.
Yellow check engine means very minor. Keep
On trucking to the next terminal when ever
Good to know for the future. 😃
Cut off inverter also along with Kill switch when going home.
Yes! Good thinking!

OH THAT KILL SWITCH TO THE BATTERY IS KOOL, THAT BY DO IT
👍👍👍
i enjoy your vids , thank u from canada
Glad you like them! Where are you in Canada?
If you take the key out shut that switch off and it doesn't cure it you can get codes off the dash diagnostics
Also most times turn power switch off by seat keep it off for bout 10 15 min and see if it fixes other than that if its running good truck on
Thanks! That didn’t fix this issue unfortunately.

Great video K&T. Hope everything worked out well for you. See you on the next one. 👍
😃👍
sometimes if you turn all the power off for about ten or fifteen minutes itll reset ...if it dont it may just be a sensor.
If you went over 1 more to that little wrench 🔧 emblem on the dash under there it will tell you the code & problem mine does
🤦♀️🤩
Freightliner electrical gremlins....if the temps good and the oil pressure is too just keep rolling

The cameras to show the battery shut offs underneath the hood
The battery switch is underneath the hood on a Kenworth
@@ricklorenzen7204 Thanks! We didn’t know that. No one else seemed to either. Next time we have a KW (hopefully soon) we’ll look for it.
There is a filter to the air filter gauge, fyi. Always take a sharpie and mark the filter date of change. Do not trust that filter gauge.
YEAH UNDESTAND YOU GOT TO DO YOUR PART BEFORE THE ALMIGHTY CALL 👍
😃👍
I got an engine light when my antifreeze was low..
👍😃
I've had this happen before on the Cascadia and had it clear either on it's own or like the other Crete driver suggested
👍😃

There's 2 check engine lights, one is just orange and usually resets itself. Other says check engine on the light,
👍😃
The KW’s here at Crete has the battery only on the new KW’s.
Do you mean a battery switch for turning it off?
@@TheJoyofTrucking yes.

My kenworth has a kill switch just like the freight liner
So close! Next to the "truck" icon is the "wrench". That menu should tell you what the problem is, either under "alerts" or "diagnostics".
Thanks!
Thats the rarely seen WASH THE TRUCK LIGHT !!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂🤣😂😆😆😆😆😂🤣😂🤣😂😆😆
kevin can u turn off all the power do you have a power switch it will reset it and see if that works
Thanks! It didn’t. 😞
Hopefully it’s nothing serious,drive safe out there.

check coolant level
He did. 😃
Check engine light is an emissions issue. Check what code it is
Usually just tell you to drive it

What? Where is it?
Behind the driver's seat.
