Engine Monitoring
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) monitors the operating parameters of the engine. The ECM will generate an event code if a specific engine parameter exceeds an acceptable range that is defined by the engine monitoring system. For information on the engine monitoring system, refer to Troubleshooting, "Engine Monitoring System".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's monitoring system are described after Table 1.Portions of this material are reprinted with permission from SAE J1939DA_201607© 2016 SAE International.

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. This is followed by a description of the code. Refer to the following example:
E360(1) Low Engine Oil Pressure
E360(2) Low Engine Oil Pressure
E360(3) Low Engine Oil PressureThree possible responses may be available for each parameter. Some of the responses are not available for some of the parameters. Refer to Table 2.
Table 2
Indicators (1), (2), and (3)
Warning Category Indicator Severity
(1) Least Severe
(2) Moderate Severity
(3) Most Severe The definition for the levels of severity for an event are defined below:Level (1) - Level (1) alerts the operator that the engine system requires attention. The operator should check 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 that causedthis warning may result in damage to the engine components.Level (3) - Level (3) requires an immediate safe shutdown of the engine in order
