Malfunctions, MID 128 Group 30: Electrical system

Fault tracing FMI 4: The voltage is less than the normal

value or is short circuited to earth
FMI 0: Excessive coolant temperature (ground)
Fault code conditions Fault code conditions
Coolant temperature exceeds 98 °C (208.4 °F). Voltage at the engine control unit, pin 27, is less than
0.07 Volt.

Possible reason
Possible reason
● Low coolant level.
● Short circuited signal cable to battery negative.
● Blocked sea water filter.
● Fault in sensor.
● Worn impeller in seawater pump.
● Clamped/leaking/blocked hose on the suction side
(sea water). Suitable action
● Defective thermostat. 1
Check cables between the sensor and engine control
● Blocked heat exchanger.
unit.
● Poor flow in the cooling system.
● Worn coolant pump. 2
● Faulty pressure cap, expansion tank. Check sensor.
● Faulty temperature sensor, coolant.

Suitable action FMI 5: The current is less than the normal

1
value or there is an open circuit
Check the coolant level. Fault code conditions
Voltage at the engine control unit, pin 27, is more than
2 4.95 Volt.
Check that the system does not leak.

3 Possible reason
Check that the sea water filter is not blocked. ● Open circuit in signal cable.
● Open circuit in battery negative.
4 ● Fault in sensor.
Remove the end wall from the reversing gear oil cooler
and check if the oil cooler is blocked.
Suitable action
5 1
Check the impeller in the sea water pump. Check cables between the sensor and engine control
unit.
6
Check the coolant temperature sensor. 2
Check sensor.
7
Clean the heat exchanger in the cooling system.
