Overview

This is a real diagnostic session, not a review: a technician uses a Texa scan tool on a 6170R throwing a high crankcase pressure/blowby derate code, walks through ECU fault reading, live parameter monitoring, and finds the actual cause, a kinked blowby filter vent line from a botched prior repair. He also demos bidirectional functions like force regen and aftertreatment code clearing. Best for owners or techs troubleshooting emissions/crankcase codes, not shoppers wanting a walkaround.

Posted by a repair shop channel (western truck and tractor repair) documenting hands-on diagnostic work, so expect technical troubleshooting rather than a sales or buyer's-guide perspective.
