There are over 3000 fault codes. The manual is 1400 pages. You need to contact your local dealer and purchase the manual.

Hey Man, I have previously had the same issue. crank the truck and it immediately goes into engine shutdown. there is a sensor on the radiator without enough coolant the engine goes into shutdown.

check your lights are working.check the wipers work.if they dont the truck considers this a safety issue and shuts the truck down.

just a w.a.g.; key switch. bad contact on "run" position? shuts off fuel? that would explain "no code".
