1994 or 1995 Coach# 381, Series 60 DDEC III, Allison HT741
Hello all, last night my family and I were about 20 miles from home, and we hit a dip in the road (I knew it was there and slowed down to about 55mph). After passing thru the dip, the cruise control shut off, the low coolant light flashed, and the coach immediately began losing power, I thing the engine was actually shutting down, because a few seconds later, I lost power steering and was able to fight it to the shoulder of the freeway. Now long story short, we towed it home, pulling it with a heavy duty tow strap with my F-150.
Problem: Engine spins over but will not fire off, Trans Check (Amber) stays on, cant get it to flash codes when holding the Trans Check switch. I check the flash codes on the Engine ECM and got (Red Light) code 25 and (Amber Light) 54, 46, and 43. We have the coach home now so my family and it are out of danger, only now I cant move it without towing it. Any help is appreciated. I'am a Heavy diesel mechanic by education so I have a little bit of knowledge but this problem has me stumped.
