Posting this for future searchers.
Friday I had just returned home from a 4+ hour drive, mostly highways doing 90-120km/h (55-75mph). No issues what so ever, ride was great as usual. Truck looked to be averaging about 10.5 km per liter / 29mpg (I kept checking ). 2019 Lariat Super Crew FX4, build date Jan. 2019 (bought March 2019), 26,000 kms / 16,000 miles on the odometer.
Did a pit stop close to home to a store to pick up some things. Get back in about 5 minutes later and the Check Engine Light (CEL) came on. Truck still started fine and ran ok, so I just drove the next few minutes home.
Got a pop-up on Fordpass - Malfunction Indicator Lamp - Regulatory. Under that it shows "The engine control system has detected the crankcase ventilation hose sensor is reporting a signal outside of its expected value."
I let it sit for a bit, at least about 2 hours, went to start it to see if the CEL stayed on which it did. So shut if off and made an appointment with the dealer for Monday.
I don't have an OBD scanner so asked the technician on the side for the code it gave (so I could share here!). He went one better and gave me the TSB that came up for him. My code was P051B.
Resolution: They flashed/updated the PCM as per TSB 20-2153. (this always makes me wonder though, what happened to throw the code in the first place? unfortunately with these we wouldn't know unless the same thing comes up again I guess.)
TSB 20-2153 (dated May 6, 2020): Illuminated MIL with DTCs P02EE, P02F0, P02F1, P050A, P050B, P1026, and/or P051B - Built on or Before June 14, 2019
This bulletin supersedes 19-2320. Reason for update: Incorrect or Incomplete Symptom
Model: Ford 2019 Ranger
Summary: This article supersedes TSB 19-2320 to update the Title, Issue Statement and Action Statement.
Issue: Some 2019 Ranger vehicles built on or before 14-June-2019 may exhibit an illuminated malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) with diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) P02EE, P02EF, P02F0, P02F1, P050A, P050B, P1026, and/or P051B stored in the powertrain control module (PCM). This may be due to various software parameters within the PCM. To correct the condition, follow the service procedure to reprogram the PCM.
Action: Follow the service procedure steps to correct the condition if the vehicle meets all of the following criteria:
- 2019 Ranger
- Built on or before 14-June-2019
- Exhibits an illuminated MIL with DTC P02EE, P02EF, P02F0, P02F1, P050A, P050B, P1026, and/or P051B stored in the PCM
Warranty Service: Eligible under provisions of New Vehicle Limited Warranty, blah blah blah (typical stuff)
Hope this helps for future use. To also note, this is the first and only issue I've had with this truck.
