Diagnostic Codes
Di
agnostic codes alert the operator that a problem in
the electronic system has been detected. Diagnostic
codes also indicate the nature of the problem to
th
e service technician. The Caterpillar Electronic
Technician (ET) is a software program that is
designed to run on a personal computer. Diagnostic
c
odes may be viewed on a personal computer that
has Cat ET software. Diagnostic codes consist of
the module identifier (MID), the component identifier
(
CID), and the failure mode identifier (FMI).
Component Identifier (MID) – TheMIDisathree
d
igit code that identifies the Electronic Control
Module (ECM) that generated the diagnostic code.
For example, the CID number 036 identifies the
engine ECM.
Component Identifier (CID) – The CID is a number
with three or four digits. The CID indicates the
component that generated the code. For example,
the CID number 0001 identifies the fuel injector for
the number one cylinder.
Failure Mode Identifier (FMI) – The FMI is a two
digit code that indicates the type of failure. Refer to
Table 5 for a complete list of the two digit codes.
Refer to Table 5 for a description of the failure.

Refer to Table 4 for a complete list of the diagnostic
codes and the appropriate troubleshooting procedure.
Do not confuse diagnostic codes with event codes.
Event codes alert the operator that an abnormal
operating condition such as low oil pressure or high
coolant temperature has been detected. If an event
code is active, refer to Troubleshooting, “Event Code
List”.
