The HD7000 reads full-system codes and does parked DPF regen, idle/speed-limit, and service resets from the cab — on everything from a 6.7 Cummins/Power Stroke/Duramax pickup to Class-8 trucks (Detroit, Paccar, CAT, Volvo, Mack, International).

Frequently Asked Questions
What does P2199 mean on a Power Stroke?
P2199 means Intake Air Temperature Sensor 1 / 2 Correlation. Intake air temperature sensors 1 and 2 are reporting values that do not agree with each other closely enough.
Is P2199 a Power Stroke-specific code?
No. P2199 is a generic OBD-II code defined by SAE J2012, so it means the same thing on any vehicle that sets it. The exact conditions Ford uses to set it on its diesels are in Ford service information.
