RE: no regens while driving If you have a "regen inhibit" switch in the dash, make sure it is in the correct position. It could also be that the feature (Under Features and Parameters) for the regen inhibit switch (or one of its sub settings) is set incorrectly. - This,as well as a few other settings can indeed be carried over from a deleted program back to a stock factory program when the ecm was flashed with Insite. This is because Insite backs up and restores the "Features and Parameters" section of whatever program you have in the ecm. Some of these settings will fall within the realm of parameters that the Insite software itself considers during its backup/restore Features and Parameters option/phase during the re-flash. The problem can indeed be in the programming still. If the discrepancy is not found, then you will likely need to pull the program out of the ecm (with C.a.l.t.e.r.m) as it sits and compare it to another trucks settings that were pulled (lonestar or possibly prostar) where the system is working properly and look specifically for settings involved with the regen switch and its sub-processes/settings. This would be a last resort, as a person never knows what data might be carried over by Insite when re-flashing an ecm. BTW: When the light just blinks at you a few times and stops after pushing the button, it is trying to tell you that regen is not required or is inhibited for one or more of several possible reasons. This does NOT come from the engine, but the cab controller, and it could be anything. Things like the tail shaft speed sensor signal bouncing around a bit due to slop in the driveshaft and enigne running (a very common one), the park brake not in the right position, the clutch pedal signal incorrect, it could think the tranny is in gear, inhibit switch in the wrong position,.. or even it seeing the engine itself does not require one at this time (regen required light is not on in the dash). - It is a whole host of things that will cause that switch to just flash at you like that. - You should look at the visor above the drivers windshield. Most prostars and lonestars have the instructions/conditions for doing a successful parked regen using the switch in the dash printed on the top side of the visor. Some clues to what condition the truck should be in will be listed there. Similar instructions are also in the user manual for the truck.
