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.

E173(1) High Exhaust Temperature Warning 173-15 Troubleshooting, "Exhaust Temperature Is High"
E190(1) Engine Overspeed Warning 190-15 Troubleshooting, "Engine Overspeeds" 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. This 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 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 caused 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 temperature sensor. Do not use the Illustration to troubleshoot temperature sensors.
Illustration 1 g01138880
Example of the typical operating range of a temperature sensor
(1) This area represents the normal operating range of the parameter. The normal output voltage of the sensor is between 0.2 VDC and 4.2 VDC.
(2) In this area, the temperature above 107 °C (225 °F) is higher than normal. The output voltage of the sensor will generate an event
