Check gauges has come on, after running truck for 5 minutes the orange engine light comes on. We have replaced turbo, actuator, ECM and alternator, We have struggled to get the ECM to tell the turbo to move the veins. It kept coding communication error so we replaced the ECM and the alternator and now the check gauges light has come on. Any ideas will be great.

Hello, I'm Danny.

What was the check engine code for that warranted the parts replacement you performed? The first thing is to have any stored engine codes scanned. If you don't have access to a scanner or code reader most auto parts stores have a tool loaner program and can rent you one. Here is a tutorial showing what is involved:

Once you have the code or codes read get back to us with the code information and we can then properly diagnose. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
