I never found a tsb for mine I just came to the conclusion that since the "rear temperature sensor" on a "open circuit" didn't even exist then it must be the firmware, the closest I got was a wiring diagram for "said" sensor from "just answer" that I paid for and oddly enough the diagram was on some amazon server, no mention of it in the service manual AT ALL this was when I discovered there are like 10 of these little small temp sensors all over the truck and I thought one of them must be bad or disconnected or something, glad I didn't tear the whole truck apart but I sure thought about it, I might have if I hadn't got the wiring diagram showing me where it should have been all the way in the back by the rear hatch on the drivers side so I took down the headliner and looked all over for even a wiring harness nope nada nothing there.

I can’t even find that TSB now, in fact I think it’s listed under “preliminary information” and never made it to TSB status. I have looked through alldatadiy and all my internet history on my iPad and desktop and I can’t find it. But if I hadn’t found it, and the fact that it listed the exact symptoms and the DTC number ( which isn’t even listed on my alldatadiy list of DTC’s, it’s not listed because the truck doesn’t have that sensor) I might still have no AC. I just got lucky because I probably wouldn’t have programmed the module because of what happened the first time I tried. I really got lucky.

Likely from the gasket collapsing from age. They'll dry up, shrink and harden. That's why they start leaking when they're old. It's also why these engines have specific torque specs- it's to crush the gasket just enough to make a good seal and provide a measured amount of tension on the bolts but not deform the gasket.

Looks like I missed all kinds of PA excitement. Wrong gasket, reused original (and collapsed) gasket, had resulting oil leakage, shotgunned it with all new parts...

Is that Dorman VLOM the upgraded design?
