ON CERTAIN TRANSIT BUSES MANUFACTURED WITH DETROIT DIESEL SERIES 50 ENGINES, THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE "ECM" WILL NEED TO BE REPROGRAMMED TO ACTIVATE THE EXHAUST TEMPERATURE SENSOR.
IN THE EVENT OF A TURBOCHARGER FAILURE THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF AN EXHAUST OR ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE.
NEW FLYER IS WORKING WITH DETROIT DIESEL TO REPROGRAM THE ENGINES. OWNERS MAY CONTACT DETROIT DIESEL AT 1-313-592-5791 OR NEW FLYER AT 204-934-4876.
