For the Implement Control System, all diagnostic codes are activated by the Implement ECM (MID 082).
Any abnormal circuit conditions that are detected by the Implement ECM 2 or the Implement ECM 3 are
communicated to the Implement ECM on the SAE J1939 Data Link.
Use the Messenger or the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) in order to view the active diagnostic
codes for the Implement ECM. Perform the procedure that corresponds to the Module Identifier (MID), the
Component Identifier (CID) and the Failure Mode Identifier (FMI) of the diagnostic code.

Detailed MI E planation
MI 00 "Data Valid But A ove 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. This could be
a high temperature. A sensor that is still operating but sending a signal above the expected limit will cause a
FMI 00 to be activated.

Media Search - RENR9013 - 120M, 12M, 140M, 14M, 160M and 16M Motor Grad... Page 14 of 17
Some of the conditions that can cause the FMI 00 diagnostic code to be activated are:
The medium or component that is being monitored is above the normal range.
MI 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 a FMI 01 to be stored.
Some of the conditions that can cause the FMI 01 diagnostic code to be activated are:
The medium or component that is being monitored is below the normal range.
MI 02 "Data erratic intermittent or incorrect" - The signal from a component is present. The control
that reads the diagnostic information can not 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 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.
Some of the conditions that can cause the FMI 02 diagnostic code to be activated are:
MI 03 "Voltage A ove Normal" - The component or system voltage is higher than the limit. An FMI 03
most often relates to a signal circuit.
Some of the conditions that could cause a FMI 03 diagnostic code to be activated are listed below.

MI 04 "Voltage Below Normal" - The component or system voltage is lower than the limit. An FMI 04
diagnostic code most often relates to a power supply circuit.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 04 diagnostic code are listed below.
MI 05 "Current Below Normal" - The current through the component or the system is lower than the
limit. FMI 05 is most often related to a driver circuit.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 05 diagnostic code are listed below.
MI 06 "Current A ove Normal" - The current through the component circuit is higher than the limit.
FMI 06 is most often related to a driver circuit for a solenoid. This diagnostic code is similar to an FMI 04
diagnostic code.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 06 diagnostic code are listed below.
MI 07 "Mechanical System Not Responding Properly" - The control detects a signal that is sent to a
mechanical system and the response is not correct.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 07 diagnostic code are listed below.
MI 08 "A normal re uency Pulse Width or Period" - This occurs when the signal is not in the
expected range. FMI 08 can also relate to a faulty sensor.

Conditions that could cause a FMI 08 diagnostic code are listed below.
MI 09 "A normal pdate" - This relates to communications on the data link. FMI 09 occurs when a
control is not able to get information from another control.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 09 diagnostic code are listed below.
MI 10 "A normal Rate of Change" - This relates to a signal that changes too fast or too slow. The rate
of change is outside of the expected limit.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 10 diagnostic code are listed below.
MI 11 " ailure Mode Not Identifia le" - The control identifies more than one FMI as being responsible
for a single failure.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 11 diagnostic code are listed below.
MI 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.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 12 diagnostic code are listed below.

MI 13 "Out of Cali ration" - The electrical signal is not within limits for a specific mechanical
condition.
Conditions that could cause a FMI 13 diagnostic code are listed below.
Calibration is required.
MI 14 "Parameter ailures" - This diagnostic code is set up for special circumstances for a particular
component. The FMI 14 troubleshooting procedure for the component will list the possible conditions that
can cause this code.
