Diagnostic Operation
SMCS - 5050-EK
The ECM shows diagnostic information on the display in order to assist with troubleshooting. This control
system is used with the Electronic Technician Service Tool (ET). These tools can be used to perform several
diagnostic functions and programming functions.
The following list contains some of the diagnostic functions and programming functions that are performed
by the service tools:
The status of most of the inputs and the outputs are displayed.
Display the status of the input and output parameters in real time.
The number of occurrences and the clock hour of the first occurrence and the last occurrence is
displayed for each logged diagnostic code.
The definition for each logged diagnostic code and each event is displayed.
See the Troubleshooting, Diagnostic Code List section of this manual for the list of diagnostic codes for the
machine ECM.

These procedures are only for the diagnostic codes that originate from the machine ECM. The diagnostic
codes can be viewed by using any of the following systems: Monitoring System and the Caterpillar Electronic
Technician (ET) See one of the following references:
The following procedures may cause new diagnostic codes to be logged. Therefore, before any procedures are
performed, make a list of all the active diagnostic codes in order to determine the system problems. Clear the
diagnostic codes that were caused by the procedure, when each procedure is complete.
Note: Before you perform a procedure, always check all the circuit breakers. Repair the cause of any circuit
breaker that is tripped.
The module identifier (MID) identifies the electronic control module that detected the diagnostic code. Each
electronic control module on the machine has a unique MID. Use the following chart in order to match the
MID for each diagnostic code to a specific electronic control module. The chart for the Module Identifier
(MID) is located on the Electrical System Schematic for your machine. See the chart if the MID is not shown
on the display of your machine. After the operator determines the ECM that has detected the diagnostic code,
see the troubleshooting manual for the particular ECM.
If the MID is for the machine ECM, use this service manual module. The MID for the machine ECM is 039.
If the MID is different use the appropriate module.

FMI 00 Data Valid But Above Normal Operating Range - Every electronic control system sets a high limit
for the expected operating range of the signal. The high limit includes over range signals. A sensor that is still
operating but sending a signal above the expected limit will cause an FMI 00 to be stored.

A PWM signal that is at a duty cycle of 80 percent is a valid signal. If the PWM signal has a duty cycle of 81
percent, the sensor is still working. But the sensor signal is above the expected signal limits.
FMI 01 Data Valid But Below Normal Operating Range - Every electronic control system sets a low limit
for the expected operating range of the signal. The limit includes signals that are under the lower limit. The
low signal could be the oil pressure signal. The sensor is still working but sending a signal below the expected
limit will cause an FMI 01 to be stored.
This sensor is not expected to generate a PWM signal below a duty cycle of 5 percent with zero air pressure.
If the sensor generates a signal with a duty cycle of 4 percent when the engine is shut down, the sensor is still
working. Sending a signal below the expected limit will cause an FMI 01 to be stored.
FMI 02 Data Erratic, Intermittent, or Incorrect - The signal from a component is present. The control that
reads the diagnostic information cannot read the signal properly. The signal appears to be gone, unstable, or
invalid. The data can be correct or incorrect intermittently. Also, this condition relates to communication
between controls. This condition is an example of communication between controls. When the monitoring
system is looking for the engine speed from the engine ECM over the Cat Data Link.
FMI 03 Voltage Above Normal or Shorted High - The component or system voltage is higher than the
limit. FMI 03 most often relates to a signal circuit.
Some of the components that could cause an FMI 03 diagnostic code are listed:

Any wiring harness that has a sensor signal wire shorted to a high voltage. A high voltage is any voltage
that is greater than the sensor supply voltage.
A wiring harness that has an open circuit in the sensor signal wire will cause the control to pull up.
When this event occurs, the input circuit is pulled up to the supply voltage.
FMI 04 Voltage Below Normal or Shorted Low - The component or system voltage is lower than the limit.
FMI 04 most often relates to a signal circuit.
Some of the components that could cause an FMI 03 diagnostic code are listed:
Any wiring harness that has a sensor signal wire shorted to ground.
FMI 05 Current Below Normal or Open Circuit - The current through the component or the system is
lower than the limit. FMI 05 is most often related to a driver circuit.
FMI 06 Current Above Normal or Grounded Circuit - The current through the component or the system is
higher than the limit. FMI 06 is most often related to a driver circuit. This fault is like an FMI 04 diagnostic
code.

FMI 07 Mechanical System Not Responding Properly - The control detects a signal that is sent to a
mechanical system and the response is not correct.
FMI 08 Abnormal Frequency, Pulse Width, or Period - This event occurs when the signal is not in the
expected range. FMI 08 can also relate to a faulty sensor.
FMI 09 Abnormal Update - This event relates to communications on the Cat Data Link. FMI 09 occurs
when a control is not able to get information from another control.
The control module is not communicating on the Cat Data Link correctly.
FMI 10 Abnormal Rate of Change - This event relates to a signal that changes too fast. The rate of change
is outside of the expected limit.
FMI 11 Failure Mode Not Identifiable - The control identifies more than one FMI as being responsible for a
single failure.

FMI 12 Bad Device or Component - The electronic control sends a signal and the electronic control expects
a response. The control receives no response or the response is incorrect.
FMI 13 Out of Calibration - The electrical signal is not within limits for a specific mechanical condition.
Calibration is required.
FMI 16 Parameter Not Available - The control does not support the requested parameter.
FMI 17 Module Not Responding - The control does not respond to the request for data.
FMI 18 Sensor Supply Failure - The sensor power supply in the control has failed.
FMI 19 Condition Not Met - The conditions that are defined by the software were not met.
