| Description of the problem | My ford f-250 superduty with 6. 0 diesel has a hard starting issue and then the engine go from low idle to high idle causing to have to really apply the brakes in order to keep the vehicle from taking off. You can be just gradually taking off and then it accelerates with out warning. Have had instances when sitting at a stop and the engines rpm's jump causing the truck to start taking off and if not reacting fast enough would have hit a car in front of me. I do have a engine code in the vehicle, p2285 which states injector control pressure sensor circuit low. I have seen reports that have led to safety recalls due to wiring harnesses being faulty. I called the dealer and they said that my truck was not part of the recall, however it sounds real familiar with the problems associated with the recall. |
