DIFFERENTIAL & BEVEL GEAR GP 2404663 - Caterpillar

System OperationThe Electronic Control Module (ECM) supplies a regulated voltage of 5.0 0.2 VDC to the sensors.The supply voltage for the sensors is routed from the ECM to terminal 1 of each sensor connector. The sensor return for the sensors is routed from the ECM to terminal 2 of each sensor connector. The ECM provides short circuit protection for the internal power supply. A short circuit to the battery will not damage the internal power supply.Note: The sensors are not protected from overvoltage. A short from the supply line to the +Battery may damage the sensors. If any of the diagnostic codes are active, a sensor may have been damaged. Repair the sensor supply and check for any active sensor diagnostic codes in order to determine if a sensor has been damaged.
