Diagnostic Codes Table    
Code and Description    Conditions which Generate this Code    System Response    
110-3 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor voltage above normal     The engine's Electronic Control Module (ECM) detects signal voltage that is more than 4.95 VDC for eight seconds.
The ECM has been powered for at least two seconds.     The code is logged if the engine has been running for more than seven minutes. The ECM uses the last valid engine coolant temperature. If the diagnostic code is active at start-up the ECM will use intake manifold temperature. If intake manifold air temperature is not valid, the ECM will default to
90 °C (194 °F) for engine coolant temperature. The ECM will activate the cooling fan after this code has been active for more than eight seconds.    
110-4 Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor voltage below normal     The ECM detects signal voltage that is less than 0.2 VDC for eight seconds.
The ECM has been powered for at least two seconds.    
172-3 Intake Manifold Air Temperature Sensor voltage above normal     The engine's ECM detects signal voltage that is more than 4.95 VDC for eight seconds.
The ECM has been powered for at least two seconds.     The ECM will log the diagnostic code. The ECM will flag the intake manifold air temperature as invalid data and the intake manifold air temperature is set to a default value of
40 °C (104 °F).    
172-4 Intake Manifold Air Temperature Sensor voltage below normal     The ECM detects signal voltage that is less than 0.2 VDC for eight seconds.
The ECM has been powered for at least two seconds.    
174-3 Fuel Temperature Sensor voltage above normal     The engine's ECMdetects signal voltage that is more than 4.95 VDC for eight seconds.
The ECM has been powered for at least two seconds.     The code is logged. The ECM will flag the fuel temperature as invalid data and the fuel temperature is set to a default value of
40 °C (104 °F).    
174-4 Fuel Temperature Sensor voltage below normal     The ECM detects signal voltage that is less than 0.2 VDC for two seconds.
The ECM has been powered for at least two seconds.    System OperationUse this procedure to troubleshoot any suspect problems with the following sensors:
Coolant temperature sensor
Intake manifold air temperature sensor
Fuel temperature sensorThe sensor signal for the passive sensor is routed from the ECM to terminal 1 of each sensor connector. The sensor return for the passive sensors is routed from the ECM to terminal 2 of each sensor connector.

Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
Connect Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to the service tool connector.
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
Monitor the diagnostic codes on Cat ET. Check and record any diagnostic codes.Note: Wait at least 30 seconds in order for the diagnostic codes to become active.
Determine if a diagnostic code has occurred several times.Note: A diagnostic code that is logged several times is an indication of an intermittent problem. Most intermittent problems are the result of a poor connection between a socket and a pin in a connector or of a poor connection between a wire and a terminal.
Determine if the problem is active and related to one of the following diagnostic codes:
-3
-4Expected Result:A diagnostic code is not active.Results:
OK - A diagnostic code is not active.Repair: The problem may be intermittent. If the problem is intermittent, refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors - Inspect".STOP
Not OK - An active -3 diagnostic code is present. Proceed to Test Step 2.
Not OK - An active -4 diagnostic code is present. Proceed to Test Step 4.Test Step 2. Check for Battery Voltage on the Signal Wire
Measure the voltage on the harness side of the sensor connector between pin 1 and engine ground for the suspect sensor(s).
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.Expected Result:The signal voltage is less than battery voltage.Results:
OK - The signal voltage is less than battery voltage. Proceed to Test Step 3.
Not OK - The signal voltage is equal to battery voltage.Repair: There is a short circuit to battery voltage in the harness. Repair the wiring harness or replace the wiring harness. Verify that the repair has resolved the original problem.STOPTest Step 3. Create a Short Circuit at the Connector for the Suspect Sensor
Disconnect the suspect sensor.
Fabricate a jumper wire that is long enough to create a test circuit across the harness side of the sensor connector. Crimp connector pins to each end of the jumper wire.
Install the jumper wire between terminal 1 (sensor signal) and terminal 2 (sensor return) at the sensor connector.
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
Access the "Active Diagnostic Code" screen on Cat ET. Check for an active -4 diagnostic code for the suspect sensor.Wait at least 30 seconds in order for the diagnostic codes to become active.
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.Expected Result:A -4 diagnostic code is now active for the suspect sensor(s).Results:
OK - A -3 diagnostic code was active before creating the short at the sensor connector. A -4 diagnostic code became active after creating the short at the sensor connector. The wiring between the ECM and the sensor connector is OK.Repair: Temporarily connect a new sensor to the harness, but do not install the new sensor in the engine. Verify that there are no active diagnostic codes for the sensor. If there are no active diagnostic codes for the sensor, permanently install the new sensor. Clear any logged diagnostic codes.STOP
Not OK - A -3 diagnostic code is still active for the suspect sensor(s). There is an open circuit between the sensor connector and the ECM. Leave the sensor disconnected. Proceed to Test Step 5.Test Step 4. Create an
