System Operation Operation
Cold mode is activated ac tivated whenever the engine temperature temperature falls below a predetermined predetermined value. Cold mode remains active until the engine temperature rises above a predetermined value or until a time limit is exceeded.
This engine is electronically controlled. Each cylinder has an electr onic onic unit injector. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) sends a signal to each injector solenoid in order to control the operation of the fuel injection injection system. system.
Electronic Controls The electronic system consists of the following components: the ECM, the Electronic Unit Injectors (EUI), the wiring wiring harness, the switches, and the sensors. The ECM is a computer that is used to control the engine. The software for the computer is loaded via v ia the flash file. The flash file contains the operating maps and the performance maps for the engine. These maps de fine the following istics of the engine: character istics
• Horsepower • Torque curves es the timing and the amount of fuel The ECM calculat calculates that is delivered to the cylinders. These calculations are based on the actual conditions and/or on the desired conditions conditions at any given time. The ECM compares the desired engine speed to the actual actual engine speed. The ECM calculates actual engine speed from signals that are produced by the engine speed/timing speed/timing sensor. sensor. The desired desired engine speed is calculated is calculated by the ECM with the following variables: Throttle signal • Throttle signals from engine sensors • Input signals
• Certain diagnostic codes If the desired desired engine speed is greater than the actual engine speed, the ECM increases the duration of the fuel injection. This injects more fuel into the cylinders to increase the actual engine speed. in order to
Fuel Injection Injection The ECM controls the amount of fuel that is injected by varying the th e duration of the signals to the injectors. The injector will pump fuel only while the injector solenoid solenoid is energized. energized. The ECM sends a high voltage signal to the the solenoid. This high voltage signal energizes the solenoid. By controlling the timing and the duration of the high voltage signal, the ECM can control control injection injection timing and the engine RPM. The flash file that is programmed into the ECM sets certain certain limits on the amount of fuel that can be injected. The “FRC Fuel Limit” is used to control the air/fuel ratio in order to control emissions. The “FRC Fuel Limit” Limit” is a limit that is based on the boost pressure of the engine. A higher boost pressure indicates that there is more air in the cylinder. As the boost pressure boost pressure increases, the ECM calculates an increased “FRC Fuel Limit”. When the “FRC Fuel Limit” is increased, the ECM injects more fuel into the cylinder . The “FRC Fuel Limit” is programmed into the ECM at the factory. This fuel setting cannot be changed changed by the customer customer.. The “Rated Fuel Limit” is a limit that is based on the power rating of the engine and on engine rpm. The “Rated Fuel Fuel Limit” is a fuel map that provides the power curves and the torque curves for a speci fic engine family and for a speci fic engine rating. The “Rated Fuel “Rated Fuel Limit” is programmed into the ECM at the factory. This fuel setting cannot be changed by the customer.
6 Troubleshooting Section
RENR9348-01
Once the ECM calculates the amount of fuel that is required for the the engine, the timing of the fuel injection injection cycle must be calculated. The ECM receives receives information about the top center position of each cylinder from the from the engine speed/timing sensor’s signal. The ECM calculates the initiation of the fuel injection cycle relative to the top center position of the piston. The T he injection signal is then provided to the injector at the desired time. The ECM adjusts timing for optimum engine performance, for optimum fuel economy, and and for optimum control of emissions.

Test ECM Mode SMCS Code: 1901 Code: 1901 “Test “Test ECM Mode” Mode” is a feature on Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) that is used to troubleshoot an engine that may have a problem with the Electronic Control Module Module (ECM). If an application supports this feature, Cat ET will allow a new ECM to be used temporarily as a test ECM. When the “Test ECM Mode” is activated, an internal timer sets a 24 hour clock. This clock will count down only while only while the ECM is powered. If the new ECM fi xes the problem, the engine can be released while the “Test ECM Mode” is still active. After the ECM has counted counted down the 24 hour period, the ECM will exit the “Test ECM Mode”. The parameters, the accumulated hours, and the engine serial number will be permanently permanently programmed into the new ECM. The new ECM can no longer be used for another engine or for a test ECM. Note: When Note: When the“Test ECM Mode” is activated, the “Personality Module Code” is 0. After the ECM has counted down counted down the 24 hour period, the “Personality Module Code” will be dependent on the application. If the problem problem is not solved with the new ECM and the 24 hour period has not expired, the ECM can be removed from the engine and reused as a new ECM on another another engine. Anytime prior to the 24 hour limit of the “Test ECM Mode”, a new engine serial number and new parameters can be reprogrammed. 1. Search for the latest fl ash fi le for the engine.

Troubleshooting Troubleshooting with a Diagnostic Code i02432846
Diagnostic Codes SMCS Code: 1900 Code: 1900
Diagnostic Codes Diagnostic codes alert the operator that a problem in the electronic system has been detected. Diagnostic Diagnostic codes also indicate the nature of the problem to the service technician. The Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) is a software program that is designed to run on a personal computer. Diagnostic codes may be viewed on a personal computer that has Cat ET software. Diagnostic codes consist of the component identi fier (CID) and the failure mode identifier (FMI). Component Identifier (CID) (CID) – The CID is a number with three or four digits. The CID indicates the component that generated the code. For example, the CID number 0001 identi fies the fuel injector for the number one cylinder. Failure Mode Identi fier (FMI) (FMI) – The FMI is a two digit code that indicates the type of failure. Suspect Suspect Parameter Number Number (SPN) – The SPN is a three digit code which is assigned to each component in order to identify data via the data link to the ECM. This is used on the diagnostics for the CAN data link. Refer to Troubleshoo Troubleshooting, ting, “Diagnostic Code Cross Reference” for the complete list of the diagnostic codes and a description of each code. There is a troubleshooting procedure for every diagnostic code. Refer to Troublesho Troubleshooting, oting, “Troubleshooting “Troubleshooting With A Diagnostic Code”. When a diagnostic code is activated, the Electronic Control Module (ECM) transmits information about the code over the J1939 data link. Some J1939 devices may display the code. However, the code will be displayed with a SPN-FMI code. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Diagnostic Code Cross Reference” for a cross-reference between SPN-FMI codes and diagnostic codes. 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. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting with an Event Code” for additional additional information on event codes.

Output voltage from a typical analog temperature sensor
Illustration 7 indicates the signal range for a typical analog sensor. sensor. Diagnostic Diagnostic codes will be generated if the sensor’s output signal is below 0.2 VDC or above 4.8 VDC.
Active Diagnostic Codes An active diagnostic code represents a problem with the electronic control system. Correct system. Correct the problem as soon as possible. When the 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
For information on event codes, refer to Troubleshooting, Troubleshooting, “Event Codes”. 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 fi rst occurrence of the code occurrence of the code • The hour of the last occurrence occurrences of the code • The number of occurrences This information is a valuable indicator for troubleshooting intermittent problems. A code is cleared from memory when one of the following conditions occur: technician manually manually clears the code. • The service technician
• The code does not recur for 100 hours. there are already ten • A new code is logged and there
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 repeatedly may indicate indicate a problem that needs special investigation. Note: Always Note: Always clear logged diagnostic codes after investigating and correcting the problem which generated the code. i02419262
Diagnostic Diagnost ic Code Cross Reference SMCS Code: Code: 1900 Problems with the electronic control system are reported reported via the following different types of codes: SPN/FMI codes, diagnostic codes, and event event codes. codes. For information information on SPN/FMI codes, refer to Troubleshooting, “Diagnostic Codes”. For information information on diagnostic codes, refer to Troubleshooting, “Diagnostic Codes”.

Check internally for debris, dirt, or deposits on the radiator core. Debris, dirt, or deposits will restrict restrict the fl ow of coolant through the radiator. C. Check C. Check the water temperature regulator. A water temperature regulator that does not open, or a water temperature regulator that only opens part of the way can cause overheating. D. Check D. Check the water pump. A water pump with a damaged impeller impeller does not pump enough coolant. Remove the water water pump and check for damage to the impeller. E. If the cooling cooling system for this application is equipped with a fan, check the operation of the fan. A fan that is not turning at the correct speed can cause improper i mproper air speed across the radiator core. The lack of proper air flow across the radiator core can cause the coolant not to cool to the proper temperature differential. F. Check the cooling system hoses and clamps. Damaged hoses hoses with leaks can normally be seen. Hoses that have no visual leaks can soften during operation. The soft areas of the hose can become kinked or crushed crushed during operation. These areas of the hose can restrict the coolant flow. Hoses become soft and/or get cracks after a period of time. The The inside of a hose can deteriorate, and the loose particles of the hose can restrict the coolant flow. G. G. If the cooling system for this application is equipped with an expansion tank, check the shunt the expansion tank. The shunt line must be line for the submerged in the expansion tank. A restriction of the shunt line from the expansion tank to the inlet of the jacket jacket water pump will cause a reduction in water pump ef ficiency. A reduction in water pump ef ficiency will result in low coolant fl ow. H. H. If the cooling system for this application is equipped with an aftercooler, check the cooler. A restriction of air fl ow through the air after cooler. to air aftercooler can cause overheating. Check for debris or deposits deposits which would prevent the free air through the aftercooler. flow of air I. Check for a restriction restriction in the air inlet system.

The ECM activates a relay which energizes two air shutoff solenoids. solenoids. The solenoids solenoids trip the air shutoff shutoff valves. valves. There are three conditions which can cause the ECM to activate the air shutoff: Engine Overspe Overspeed ed – The first condition occurs when the ECM detects an engine overspeed. During an engine overspeed, o verspeed, the ECM energizes the air shutoff relay. The ECM supplies voltage to the air shutoff relay for one second. The output of the relay will energize energize the air shutoff solenoids in order to shut down the engine. Once an event for the air shutoff system is activated, the event is latched until electrical electrical power to the ECM system is cycled. Overspeed Overspeed Verify Verify Feature – The second condition occurs when wh en the overspeed verify feature is initiated with Caterpillar Caterpillar Electronic Electronic Technician echnician (ET). This feature will energize the air shutoff relay when the engine speed s peed is increased above 75 percent of the rated engine speed.

Coolant Level Level Sensor Circuit - Test 439-038-CLT SMCS Code: 1 Code: 1439-038-CLT System Operation Description: Use this procedure to troubleshoot any suspect problems with the circuit for the coolant level sensor. The coolant level sensor sensor monitors the engine coolant level in order to warn the operator in the event that the coolant coolan t level is low. The coolant level sensor is located on the expansion tank.
Coolant level sensor (1) contains no moving parts. The sensor provides the same function as a switch. The state of the switch is dependent on the capacitance value that is detected at the probe of the sensor. The sensor contains a probe (2) that is covered with plastic (3). When the sensor’s probe is immersed in coolant, the sensor senses a particular capacitance. The sensor’s electronics react by sinking the signal to the digital return (ground). (ground). When the probe is not immersed in coolant, approximately +5 VDC is sourced to the signal wire. When this condition is detected by the Electronic Control Module (ECM), an event code is activated. Prior to troubleshooting any problems with the coolant level sensor, use Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to check the installation status for the sensor. sensor. The coolant level sensor’s sensor’s configuration parameter must be set to “Installed” in order for the ECM to monitor the signal from the sensor. The activation of an event code and/or a warning lamp is probably caused by a low coolant level. The next likely cause is a problem with the wiring harness, a connector, or the sensor. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM.

Electrical Connectors Connectors - Inspect SMCS Code: 7553-040-WW Code: 7553-040-WW System Operation Description: Most electrical electrical problems are caused by poor connections. The following procedure will assist in detecting problems with connectors and with wiring. If a problem is problem is found correct the condition and verify that the problem is resolved. Intermittent Intermittent electrical problems are sometimes resolved by disconnecting and reconnecting connectors. It is very important to check for diagnostic codes immediately immediately before disconnecting a connector. Also check for diagnostic codes after reconnecting the connector. If the status of a diagnostic code is changed changed due due to disconnecting and reconnecting a connector connector,, there are several several possible possible reasons. reasons. The likely reasons reasons are loose terminals, terminals, improperly improperly crimped terminals, terminals, moisture, corrosion, and inadequate mating of a connection. Follow these these guidelines:
• Always use a 1U-5804 Crimp Tool to service

The ECM continuously outputs a pull-up voltage on the circuit for the sensor signal wire. The ECM uses this pull-up pull-up voltage in order to detect a problem in the signal circuit. When the ECM detects the presence of a voltage that is above a threshold on the signal circuit, the the ECM will generate a 03 diagnostic code for the sensor. If the sensor sensor is disconnected at the sensor connector, the presence of pull-up voltage at the sensor connector indicates that the wires from the sensor connector to connector to the ECM are OK. If the sensor is disconnected disconnected at the sensor connector connector,, the absence of pull-up voltage at the sensor connector indicates a problem in problem in the signal wire. If the sensor is disconnected at the sensor connector and the voltage at the sensor connector is different from pull-up voltage, the voltage, the signal wire may be shorted to another wire in the harness.

The “Cylinder Cutout Test” is used on an engine in order to determine det ermine the individual cylinder performance while the engine is running. As one or more cylinders are cut out during the test, the Test” uses “Fuel Position” in order “Cylinder “Cylinder Cutout Cutout Test” to evaluate the performance of the cylinders that are cut out. As the different cylinders are cut out, a comparison comparison of the change in “Fuel Position” is used to identify cylinders that are weak or misfiring. One reason for a cylinder that is weak or mis firing is an injector that that is malfunctioning.

Typically Typically,, problems occur when the engine is warmed up and/or when the engine is under vibration (heavy loads). These engines have Electronic Unit Injectors Injectors (EUI) that are mechanically mechanically actuated and electronically electronically controlled. The controlled. The Engine Control Module (ECM) sends a high voltage signal to each injector solenoid. The signal is sent with the proper injection duration and injection timing timing for the current engine load and speed. The injector solenoid is mounted on top of the fuel injector body. If an open circuit condition is detected in the solenoid circuit, a diagnostic code is generated. The ECM will continue continue to try to try to fire the injector. If a short circuit condition condition is detected, detected, a diagnostic diagnostic code is generated. generated. The ECM will disable the solenoid circuit. The ECM will periodically periodically try to fire the injector. If the short circuit condition condition remains, remains, this sequence of events will be repeated until the problem is corrected. Note: Refer Note: Refer to Illustration 86. Two injector solenoids share a supply wire. For this reason, an open circuit or or a short circuit in a supply wire could cause diagnostic diagnostic codes for two injector solenoids. When an in jector in jector is replaced, new injector trim fi les must be programmed into the ECM. If the ECM is replaced, all injector trim files must be programmed Troubleshooting, ting, “Injector into the new new ECM. Refer to Troubleshoo Trim File” for more information.
The “Cylinder Cutout Test” can be used to isolate a malfunctioning malfunctioning injector in order to avoid replacement of injectors that are in good condition. During the test, the test, when a cylinder is cut out, an increase in “Fuel Position” will be noticed for the remaining remaining cylinders. cylinders. This increase increase in “Fuel Position” represents represent s an increase in the amount of fuel that must be delivered by the remaining cylinders in order to maintain the desired engine speed. When a weak cylinder (malfunctioning injector) is cut out, the increase in “Fuel Position” will not be as large as the increase increase for a cylinder that has an acceptable level of performance. performance. Note: Pri Note: Prior or to running the “Cylinder Cutout Test”, all active diagnostic codes must be repaired. “Injector “Injector Solenoid Test” Use the “Injector Solenoid Test” to diagnose an open circuit or or a short circuit in the wiring for the injector solenoids. With the engine stopped, the “Injector Solenoid Test” will brie fly activate each injector solenoid. solenoid. An audible click can be heard as each solenoid is activated. After performing the test, Cat ET will indicate the status of the solenoid as “OK”, “Open”, or “Open”, or “Short”.

The ECM has the ability to calibrate the mechanical differences between the Top Center (TC) of the No. 1 piston and the orientation of the camshaft. The ECM uses the signal from the primary engine speed/timing sensor as a control reference that identi fies the exact orientation of the crankshaft. The ECM uses the signal that is detected from the secondary engine speed/timing speed/timing sensor to identify the exact orientation orientation of the camshaft. The two signals are then used by the ECM to calculate a timing offset. The offset is used by the ECM to calibrate the signal from the secondary engine speed/timing sensor.
