Stalling in park

Hi, new to the forum. So during a fuel pump recall service, the dealership found that the timing belt cover was leaking. The engine has to be removed to perform this fix. Got the truck back all good. Two days later the check engine light comes on. Not convenient to go back to the dealership, so tried to go to local mechanic to see what the CEL was all about. Too busy to check it for me. Come back tomorrow. Ok fine. Later that day, put the truck in park to wait for my wife to run into the store to grab something. Left the truck running. After about thirty seconds it shuts itself off and the high ATF temperature and low oil pressure messages pop up. Started fine, but did it again when I got home.

Anyone have any ideas. Going to call the dealer tomorrow.

 

Check all the fluids ??

 

Yes, fluids are good.

 

Hmm it could be anything .I wouldn’t drive it anymore in case they screwed something up reinstalling .

 

Yeah, bummer.

 

Back to the dealer it goes.
Sorry you have to deal with this nightmare.
I would have the truck towed in.

 

Thanks guys.

 

Likely a loose ground, I've done the timing cover reseal and there's a fuck ton of harness you have to remove.

 

I’m agreeing sounds like a loose harness connector somewhere. Easy mistake to make.

 

Any issue with driving it if it's a loose ground or harness?

 

I'd have it towed personally. It may be something else. Who knows.

 

I would inspect for any sign at all of leaking fluids before driving it anywhere.

 

tow back to the dealer.. do not take it to anyone else.. the dealer might play the blame game, (someone else cause the problem, not us)..

 

Didn't see any evidence of fluid leaks.

 

I think you should call the dealer and let them decide what your next move is.

 

That's my plan. Let them figure it out and hopefully fix it.

 

Crazy part is i had that exact symptom the day my truck failed and sat for the fuel pump recall. Ever since the recall fix... no problems .

 

It stalled out and showed the same warnings?

 

Yes. The high atf temperature and I had to turn the truck off and on to get it to clear and the truck to actually drive anywhere. I thought it was a fluke but later that day leaving my next destination the low oil pressure came on and that was all she wrote. I really though the fuel pump recall was going to be just one part of the problem with these symptoms... but so far it resolved them. I mean why ATF temperature?

The service advisor said they were all related and that once one sensor throws codes, it can create a chain reaction. ( should i buy that? )

 

They replaced my fuel pump though. No issues before that and now all this. I'll let you know what they tell me.
