3.2 Ranger ad blue system fault

[Johnsond]

Hi All

Warning lights for ad blue system malfunction etc came up yesterday evening on my 2018 wildtrack, 67k on the clock and not long back from Ford for a whole chassis swap as part of the corrosion rectification scheme, exhaust was replaced at same time. Anyone got any ideas of where to start ??. The issue I have is I’m up on North Uist working so not so easy to pop to the Ford dealer 🤷‍♂️and the fact it’s telling me it’s going into no engine start mode in a certain amount of miles, a certain amount that unfortunately will not see this job finished and get me home.

Have you topped up the add blue to see if it goes away ?

Yeah its brim full, it’s a different set of lights as opposed to the ad blue low level warning light

@Pete B had plenty of issues with his adblue Ranger.

 

There was a quite lengthy thread on here.

My mate had this on his 16 plate 2.2. Came up with that message as he was towing a trailer from Hertfordshire to North Wales for a scout camp...He had to wait in a services while another mate drove up to him in his 2002 defender, then they swapped trucks! 

Took it to ford, it was the ad blue injector, don't think it was a particularly cheap fix. This was the 3rd or 4th time the ad blue had caused him issues. 

He sold the truck shortly after...

 

My Dad has also had trouble with the ad blue on his 2018 3.2 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Also worth noting that it maybe something the Ford dealer did by accident when they had it in for the chassis swap.

Get it plugged in to diagnostic. We are seeing new tanks and pumps being fitted,adblue is corrosive spill it on some weeds and see its not just pigs pee

Get someone local to map it out 

It's very simple, got mine done 

It'll be out of warranty now so get it done 

Don't have to do any physical work, just map it out 

Never have an issue again

That is definitely on the cards especially with the price of ad blu at min.
