If it is a Ford, that shit is supposed to be turned off on all their emergency vehicles.

And had been for almost a decade now.

Take that shit to the dealer and tell them you want it fixed. Immediately.

How would a manufacturer permanently “turn off” regen? Your DPF would clog.

It’s a stop regen switch for if you are on a scene.

I know about that, but the guy im responding to is implying it’s supposed to be turned off by ford permanently

I’m not implying that, I’m just saying that the def system can be removed on passenger vehicles through aftermarket kits and programming.

I’m certain it’s possible for fire apparatus as well, but you’d be hard pressed to find anyone willing to do it.

Also as other people have said ford doesn’t make fire apparatus.

Well that moron can’t grasp the fact that Ford doesn’t make fire engines.
