PROGRAM TERMS
This program extends the warranty coverage of the CCV to 11 years of service or 120,000 miles from the warranty start date of the vehicle, whichever occurs first. This program DOES NOT apply to vehicles that qualify for repairs under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Repairs for vehicles covered by New Vehicle Limited Warranty should be claimed using applicable Labor Operation Codes for the Workshop Manual procedure or Technical Service Bulletin (TSB). Additionally, this program may be used multiple times as long as the vehicle is within time and mileage limits of the program. Once the program has expired, SPW and ESP may be eligible.

OVERVIEW
In some of the affected vehicles, the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will illuminate and the powertrain control module will store one or more diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) due to a faulty CCV oil separator assembly. If an affected vehicle exhibits this condition, dealers are to check for the following DTCs: P04DB, P04E2, and P04E3.
F-250 – F-550:
- If one or more of these DTCs are present, the dealer will install a CCV collar kit on the CCV oil separator assembly, and reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM), using IDS R111.02 or Higher.
- If the PCM requires a software update for any other concern, and a CCV collar kit is NOT present on the CCV oil separator assembly, the dealer will install a CCV collar kit on the CCV oil separator assembly prior to reprogramming the PCM.
F-650- F-750: inspect and replace the CCV oil separator assembly.
This service must be performed at no charge to the vehicle owner.
NOTE: This program extends the warranty coverage of the CCV to 11 years of service or 120,000 miles from the warranty start date of the vehicle, whichever occurs first. This program DOES NOT apply to vehicles that qualify for repairs under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Repairs for vehicles covered by New Vehicle Limited Warranty should be claimed using applicable Labor Operation Codes for the Workshop Manual procedure. Additionally, this program may be used multiple times as long as the vehicle is within time and mileage limits of the program. Once the program has expired, SPW and ESP may be eligible.

SERVICE PROCEDURE
Recommended Tool List:
| 1/4″ Drive Power Impact Driver |
| 1/4″ Drive Deep Socket 11mm |
| 1/4″ Drive Ratchet |
| 1/4″ Drive Torque Wrench |
| 1/4″ Drive Extension 6″ |
| Flat Blade Screwdriver 6″ |
- Using IDS check for the following DTCs: P04DB, P04E2, and P04E3.
- If none of the above DTCs are present, and a CCV collar kit is not already installed on the CCV oil separator assembly, and reprograming the powertrain control module (PCM) is required for another concern, the dealer will install a CCV collar kit on the CCV oil separator assembly. If a CCV collar kit has previously been installed on the CCV oil separator assembly, this program does not apply. See Figure 1.
WARNING: Do not proceed with a calibration update if the CCV collar kit has not been installed at the crankcase vent oil separator outlet hose to the intake manifold connection. The CCV collar kit is a permanent connection and has a black in color smooth sleeve around the outside of the collar with no visible locking tabs. The previous level quick connection lock ring may be gray or black in color and includes visible locking tabs and raised teeth around its circumference. Failure to install the CCV collar kit permanent connection prior to flashing the PCM with a calibration update will result in violation of U.S federal and certain state emissions laws. Refer to the latest supplement for FSA 17M04 for further information regarding installation of installing the CCV collar kit.
- Loosen the clamp and disconnect the Charge Air Cooler (CAC) inlet tube from the CAC and position aside. See Figure 2.
- Remove the quick connect end crankcase vent oil separator outlet hose. See Figure 3.
- Disconnect the crankcase vent oil separator outlet hose sensor electrical connector.
- Disconnect and remove the crankcase vent oil separator outlet hose from the intake manifold by turning the release ring counterclockwise.
- Remove the quick connect end from the hose by twisting clockwise and pulling at the same time, break the retaining tabs as needed. Discard the old quick connect.
- Place the installation cone into the end of the crankcase vent oil separator outlet hose. See Figure 4.
- Install the new CCV collar over the installation cone and twist to lock into place. Remove the installation cone and discard. See Figure 4.
NOTE: The tabs on the CCV collar should be pointing down.
- Connect the crankcase vent oil separator outlet hose to the intake manifold (1) and connect the electrical connector (2). See Figure 5.
- Connect the Charge Air Cooler (CAC) inlet tube to the CAC and tighten the clamp. See Figure 2.
- To install, tighten to 9 Nm (80 lb-in).
F-650 – F-750 Vehicle Repair
- Using IDS check for the following DTCs: P04DB, P04E2, and P04E3.
a. If any of the DTCs listed above are present, inspect the CCV oil separator assembly to ensure it is properly connected.
b. If the CCV oil separator assembly is not properly connected, connect the CCV oil separator assembly, replacement is not required.
c. If the CCV oil separator assembly is properly connected, replace the CCV oil separator assembly. Please follow the Workshop Manual (WSM) procedures in Section 303-08.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM 17M04-S2 CERTAIN 2014-2016 MODEL YEAR F-250 – F-550 AND 2016 MODEL YEAR F-650 – F-750 VEHICLES, WITH 6.7L DIESEL ENGINES — CRANKCASE VENTILATION OIL SEPARATOR ASSEMBLY OVERVIEW In some of the affected vehicles, the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) will illuminate and the powertrain control module will store one or more diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) due to a faulty CCV oil separator assembly. If an affected vehicle exhibits this condition, dealers are to check for the following DTCs: P04DB, P04E2, and P04E3. F-250 – F-550:
• If one or more of these DTCs are present, the dealer will install a CCV collar kit on the CCV oil separator assembly, and reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM), using IDS R111.02 or Higher.
• If the PCM requires a software update for any other concern, and a CCV collar kit is NOT present on the CCV oil separator assembly, the dealer will install a CCV collar kit on the CCV oil separator assembly prior to reprogramming the PCM. F-650- F-750: inspect and replace the CCV oil separator assembly. This service must be performed at no charge to the vehicle owner. NOTE: This program extends the warranty coverage of the CCV to 11 years of service or 120,000 miles from the warranty start date of the vehicle, whichever occurs first. This program DOES NOT apply to vehicles that qualify for repairs under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Repairs for vehicles covered by New Vehicle Limited Warranty should be claimed using applicable Labor Operation Codes for the Workshop Manual procedure. Additionally, this program may be used multiple times as long as the vehicle is within time and mileage limits of the program. Once the program has expired, SPW and ESP may be eligible. If a vehicle has already exceeded either the time or mileage limits, this extended warranty coverage will last through April 30, 2019.
Coverage is automatically transferred to subsequent owners. SERVICE PROCEDURE Recommended Tool List:
