Code E161

Power amplifier could not detect presence of lower valve coil.

Possible cause/corrective action:

Lower valve missing.
Open or short circuit in lower valve or wiring; master control relay missing or stuck open; main contactor open circuit (especially after it has closed); communication error due to PMT. Allow PMT to reboot before turning truck ON. Bad power amplifier.

Fact of the week
In the 13th century, the word "nice" had a negative connotation, meaning "ignorant" or "foolish". It is thought that the word gradually obtained a positive meaning in the English language where it was often used to refer to a person who was ludicrously over-dressed. The term was confused with a reference to something refined or someone who was "nicely" dressed.
