Cross-Reference Information for Event Codes
Table 1 is a list of the event codes for the engine. The event codes are cross-referenced with the appropriate procedure that can be used to troubleshoot the code.Event codes are generated when abnormal operating conditions exist. A further explanation of event codes and the engine monitoring system are described after Table 1.
Table 1
Cross-Reference from Event Codes on Cat Data Link to Troubleshooting Procedure    
Code and Description    Troubleshooting Procedure    
E048(1) Backup ECM Took Control     Troubleshooting, "Secondary ECM Assumes Control"    
E057(2) Low Engine Coolant Level Derate     Troubleshooting, "Coolant Level Is Low"    
E059(1) Low Engine Coolant Level Warning    
E085(1) Engine Shutdown Overridden     The ECM detected the activation of the engine shutdown override switch. The ECM only recognizes requests for engine shutdown from the emergency shutdown switch and engine overspeed conditions. Determine the reason that the switch has been activated. Resolve any issues that are present. Return the engine to service.    
E096(1) High Fuel Pressure     Troubleshooting, "Fuel Pressure Is High"    
E096(2) High Fuel Pressure    
E096(3) High Fuel Pressure    
E173(1) High Exhaust Temperature Warning     Troubleshooting, "Exhaust Temperature Is High"    
E197(1) High Engine Oil Temperature     Troubleshooting, "Oil Temperature Is High"    
E197(2) High Engine Oil Temperature     Troubleshooting, "Oil Temperature Is High"    
E197(3) High Engine Oil Temperature     Troubleshooting, "Oil Temperature Is High"    
E198(1) Low Fuel Pressure     Troubleshooting, "Fuel Pressure Is Low"    
E198(2) Low Fuel Pressure    
E198(3) Low Fuel Pressure    
E255(1) Diagnostic Reset     The ECM detected the activation of the diagnostic reset switch. The ECM ignores any engine derates or engine shutdowns that are initiated by diagnostic codes or event codes. Determine the reason that the switch has been activated. Use Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to check for active diagnostic codes, or event codes. Resolve any issues that are present. Return the engine to service.    
E264(3) Emergency Stop Activated     The ECM has detected the activation of the emergency stop switch. The ECM disables the injector solenoids. Determine the reason for the emergency stop shutdown and resolve the issue. Reset the emergency stop switch. Return the engine to service.    
E360(1) Low Engine Oil Pressure     Troubleshooting, "Oil Pressure Is Low"    
E360(3) Low Engine Oil Pressure    
E361(1) High Engine Coolant Temperature     Troubleshooting, "Coolant Temperature Is High"    
E361(2) High Engine Coolant Temperature    
E361(3) High Engine Coolant Temperature    
E362(1) Engine Overspeed     Troubleshooting, "Engine Overspeeds"    
E362(3) Engine Overspeed    
E363(1) High Fuel Supply Temperature     Troubleshooting, "Fuel Temperature Is High"    
E363(2) High Fuel Supply Temperature    
E363(3) High Fuel Supply Temperature    
E539(1) High Intake Manifold Air Temperature     Troubleshooting, "Intake Manifold Air Temperature Is High"    
E539(2) High Intake Manifold Air Temperature    Parts of the Event Code
Event Code - The "E" identifies the code as an event code. The "XXX(X)" represents a numeric identifier for the event code. The fourth "(X)" assigns one of three levels to the active event code according to the severity of the abnormal system condition. The severity level is followed by a description of the code. Refer to the following example:
E360(1) Low Oil Pressure
E360(2) Low Oil Pressure
E360(3) Low Oil PressureThe definition for the levels of severity for an event are defined below:Level 1 - Level 1 alerts the operator that an engine system requires attention. The operator should check that the involved system condition or the operator should perform maintenance on the involved system at the earliest possible time.Level 2 - Level 2 requires a change in the operation of the engine or the performance of a maintenance procedure. Failure to correct the problem generating this warning may result in damage to the engine components.Level 3 - Level 3 requires an immediate safe shutdown of the engine in order to avoid damage to the engine or injury to personnel around the engine. The problem that caused the event must be corrected before engine operation can resume.Active Event Codes
An active event code represents a problem with engine operation. Correct the problem as soon as possible.Active event codes are listed in ascending numerical order. The code with the lowest number is listed first.Illustration 1 is an example of the operating range of a sensor.
Illustration 1 g01365757
Example of the typical operating range of a sensor (1) This area represents the normal operating range of the engine parameter. (2) In these areas, the engine is operating in an unsafe operating range of the monitored parameter. An event code will be generated for the monitored parameter. The sensor circuit does not have an electronic problem. (3) In these areas, the signal from the sensor is outside of the operating range of the sensor. The sensor circuit has an electronic problem. A diagnostic code will be generated for the sensor circuit. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Diagnostic Trouble Codes" for additional information on diagnostic codes.Logged Event Codes
When the ECM generates an event code, the ECM logs the code in permanent memory. The ECM has an internal diagnostic clock. The ECM will record the following information when an event code is generated:
The hour of the first occurrence of the code
The hour of the last occurrence of the code
The number of occurrences of the codeLogged events are listed in chronological order. The most recent event code is listed first.This information can be helpful for troubleshooting intermittent problems. Logged codes can also be used to review the performance of the engine.Clearing Event Codes
A code is cleared from memory when one of the following conditions occur:
The code does not recur for 100 hours.
A new code is logged and there are already ten codes in memory. In this case, the oldest code is cleared.
The service technician manually clears the code.Always clear logged event codes after investigating and correcting the problem which generated the code.Troubleshooting
For basic troubleshooting of the engine, perform the following steps in order to diagnose a malfunction:
Obtain the following information about the
