DETONATION (DET) PROTECTION MODES
When the Detonation Elimination Technology (DET) in the ECU is sensing and taking action to reduce detonation, the
driver may notice a drop in engine RPM and / or reduced performance.
The ECU will illuminate the instrument cluster check engine LED and display “DET” or “DETONATION” on the LCD
screen whenever the DET system is active.
If the ECU determines the detonation cannot be controlled by normal means and further operation may cause engine
damage, the check engine LED will flash, the instrument cluster will display “DET” or “DETONATION”, and the ECU
will either limit the maximum engine speed or shut-off the engine. If the ECU limits RPM, the limit will remain active
until the driver turns off and restarts the engine.
