2018 Dutch Star 40 feet Spartan Chassis.

This engine light stay on after starting the engine. (see pic)

Is there a way with the dash setting to get the code number?

I suspect this is something to do with maintenance schedule???

You should be able to use your buttons to go through the codes. If it's a low fuel rail pressure, it could mean one of two things; either you didn't wait long enough for the light to turn off when you started the coach or you have a bad fuel filter. If it's the first, it'll go off after about 10 starts.

Thanks Dave,

This is what am I trying to do but cannot get to the right setting to see the code. Do you have to hold two buttons in the same time or something like that?

The manual was on a CD provided by Spartan which was in the black bag full of manuals that Newmar provided.

If engine is running in picture, looks like voltage is low. Should be in the 14 volt range.

Any updates on possible cause?

Here the updates,

Finally was able to get to the code menu. At first I was trying with only with ignition in accessories. Engine has to be running to see the codes.

Code SPN 3364 FM!9
Code SPN 3031 FMI9

Need a new DEF head waiting for parts still don't know if it will be cover under warranty?
