2014/09/18 Engine Pressure Sensor Open or Short Circuit - Test (SENR9969)

SMCS - 1917,1924 i05931557

System Operation Description:

Use this procedure under the following conditions:

Use this procedure if any of the following diagnostic codes are active:

0100-03 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor voltage above normal

0100-04 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor voltage below normal

0100-10 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor abnormal rate of change

1785-03 Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor voltage above normal

1785-04 Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor voltage below normal

1785-10 Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor abnormal rate of change

1797-03 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor voltage above normal

1797-04 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor voltage below normal

The following background information is related to this procedure:

The troubleshooting procedures for the diagnostic codes of each pressure sensor are identical. The 5 V sensor supply provides power to all 5 V
sensors. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) supplies 5.0 ± 0.2 V to terminal "1" of each sensor connector. The sensor common from the ECM
connector goes to terminal "2" of each sensor connector. The sensor supply is output short circuit protected. A short circuit to the battery will not
damage the circuit inside the ECM.

Pull-up Voltage

The ECM continuously outputs a pull-up voltage on the circuit for the sensor signal wire. The ECM uses this pull-up voltage in order to detect an
open in the signal circuit. When the ECM detects the presence of a voltage that is above a threshold on the signal circuit, the ECM will generate an
open circuit diagnostic code (XXX-3) for the sensor.

If the sensor is disconnected at the sensor connector, the presence of pull-up voltage at the sensor connector indicates that the wires from the
sensor connector to the ECM are not open or shorted to ground. If the sensor is disconnected at the sensor connector, the absence of pull-up
voltage at the sensor connector indicates an open in the signal wire or a short to ground. If the sensor is disconnected at the sensor connector and
the voltage at the sensor connector is different from pull-up voltage, the signal wire is shorted to another wire in the harness.

The troubleshooting procedures for the diagnostic codes of each pressure sensor are identical. The pressure sensors are active sensors. The
pressure sensor has three terminals. Active sensors require supply voltage from the ECM. The P2/J2 ECM connector supplies +5 V to terminal 1 of
each sensor. The common line is connected to each sensor connector terminal 2. The signal voltage from terminal 3 of each sensor is supplied to
the appropriate terminal at the P2/J2 ECM connector.

Test Step 1. Verify All Active Diagnostic Codes

A. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position. Wait at least 10 seconds for activation of the diagnostic codes.

B. Verify if any of the following diagnostic codes are active:

0100-03 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor voltage above normal

0100-04 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor voltage below normal

0100-10 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor abnormal rate of change

1785-03 Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor voltage above normal

1785-04 Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor voltage below normal

1785-10 Intake Manifold Pressure Sensor abnormal rate of change

1797-03 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor voltage above normal

1797-04 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor voltage below normal

Expected Result:

One or more of the preceding diagnostic codes are active.

Results:

OK - Proceed to Test Step 2.

Not OK -
Repair: Do not use this procedure if 1785-10 or 0100-10 diagnostic codes are active. Refer to Troubleshooting, "5 Volt Sensor Supply Circuit
- Test". When this test is complete, return to the start of this test.

If the preceding codes are logged, an intermittent condition may be causing the logged codes. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical
Connectors - Inspect".

Perform a "Wiggle Test" by using the electronic service tool in order to identify intermittent connections.

OK - The ECM is operating correctly. Proceed to Test Step 9.

Not OK - One of the following conditions exists: The voltage below normal diagnostic code is not active when the harness is disconnected.
The voltage above normal diagnostic code is not active when the jumper wire is installed.
Repair: Perform the following repair:

1. Make sure that the latest flash file for the application is installed in the ECM. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Flash Programming".

2. Contact the Technical Communicator at the Caterpillar dealer.

Note: This consultation can greatly reduce the repair time.

3. If the Technical Communicator recommends the use of a test ECM, install a test ECM. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Replacing the ECM".

4. Remove all jumpers and replace all connectors.

5. Use the electronic service tool to recheck the system for active diagnostic codes.

6. If the fault is resolved with the test ECM, reconnect the suspect ECM.

7. If the fault returns with the suspect ECM, replace the ECM.

8. Use the electronic service tool in order to clear all logged diagnostic codes and then verify that the repair eliminates the fault.
