Hello, I'm Danny.

It would help us better diagnose the issue if we know the actual code numbers. Here is a tutorial showing how to perform a CAN scan which can test all the systems on your truck including the check engine light you mentioned:

After you perform this get back to us with any codes and we'll help diagnose and provide you with all repair guides. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
