Diagnostic Codes
Diagnostic codes alert the operator that a problem in the electronic system has been detected.
Diagnostic codes are also used by the service technician to identify the nature of the problem.
Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) is a software program that is designed to run on a personal
computer. The software can be used by the service technician in order to view the diagnostic code
information for an ECM. Diagnostic codes may consist of the component identifier (CID), and the
failure mode identifier (FMI).

Component Identifier (CID) ­ The CID indicates the component that generated the code. For
example, the CID number 1 identifies the fuel injector for the number one cylinder.

Failure Mode Identifier (FMI) ­ The FMI indicates the type of failure.

Refer to Table 1 for a complete list of the diagnostic codes and the appropriate troubleshooting
procedure.

Note: Do not confuse diagnostic codes with event codes. Event codes alert the operator that an
abnormal operating condition such as low oil pressure or high coolant temperature has been detected.
If an event code is active, refer to Troubleshooting, "Event Code List".

Illustration 1 is an example of the operating range of a sensor.

Illustration 1 g01365757
Example of the typical operating range of a sensor

(1) This area represents the normal operating range of the engine parameter.

(2) In these areas, the engine is operating in an unsafe operating range of the monitored parameter. An event code will be
generated for the monitored parameter. The sensor circuit does not have an electronic problem. Refer to
Troubleshooting, "Event Code List" for additional information on event codes.

(3) In these areas, the signal from the sensor is outside of the operating range of the sensor. The sensor circuit has an
electronic problem. A diagnostic code will be generated for the sensor circuit.

Active Diagnostic Codes

An active diagnostic code represents a problem with the electronic control system. Correct the
problem as soon as possible.

When the engine's ECM generates an active diagnostic code, the "Active Alarm" indicator ("Engine
Control Alarm Status" on Cat ET) is activated in order to alert the operator. If the condition that
generated the code is momentary, the message disappears from the list of active diagnostic codes. The
diagnostic code becomes logged.

Logged Diagnostic Codes

When the ECM generates a diagnostic code, the ECM logs the code in permanent memory. The ECM
has an internal diagnostic clock. Each ECM will record the following information when a code is
generated:

The hour of the first occurrence of the code

The hour of the last occurrence of the code

The number of occurrences of the code

This information is a valuable indicator for troubleshooting intermittent problems.

A code is cleared from memory when one of the following conditions occur:

The service technician manually clears the code.

The code does not recur for 100 hours.

A new code is logged and there are already ten codes in memory. In this case, the oldest code is
cleared.

Some diagnostic codes may be easily triggered. Some diagnostic codes may log occurrences that did
not result in complaints. The most likely cause of an intermittent problem is a faulty connection or
damaged wiring. The next likely cause is a component failure. The least likely cause is the failure of
an electronic module. Diagnostic codes that are logged repeatedly may indicate a problem that needs
special investigation.

Note: Always clear logged diagnostic codes after investigating and correcting the problem which
generated the code.
