Cat® Electronic Technician (Cat® ET) Service Tool
When an abnormal operating condition occurs, the status screen on the Operator Monitor or Cat® ET indicates that there is an active event.Event codes are displayed on Cat® ET or the monitor in the following format:EXXXX Description of the codeThe "E" means that the code is an event code. The "XXXX" is a numeric identifier. The numeric identifier is followed by a description of the code.Active event codes are listed in ascending numerical order. The code with the lowest number is listed first. The active event code is removed from the list when the condition is no longer present.Logged Event Codes
Some event codes are logged in the ECM memory. Some event codes are active only. The logged event codes are listed in chronological order. The most recent code is listed first.A logged code is cleared from memory when one of the following conditions occur:
The service technician manually clears the code.
The code does not reoccur for 1000 hours.
A new code is logged and there are already ten logged codes in memory. In this case, the oldest logged code is cleared.Note: Always clear logged event codes after investigating and correcting the problem which generated the code.Troubleshooting
Perform the following steps to troubleshoot an event:
Obtain the following information from the operator monitor and the machine operator:
The observed condition and the time when the condition occurred.
Determine the operating conditions for the engine at the time of the event. Conditions such as engine RPM and load may be important.
Determine if there are any systems that were installed by the dealer or by the customer that could cause the event.
Some of the events below can become active during normal system operation. Verify that the event is not due to an error by the operator.
Check all fluid levels and all oil levels.
Troubleshoot and repair any active diagnostic codes.Machine ECM Event Code List
The following table lists the event codes that apply to the control system of the machine. The recommended response is listed. Use the Cat® ET service tool to determine the event codes that are active or logged.
Table 2
Machine System Event Identifier (EID) Codes
EID Level Description Possible Cause / Recommended Response
E0119 2 Low Fuel Level Warning is active for more than 2 seconds. Possible Cause: Low fuel level in the tank, fuel line leakage, or the fuel filter is plugged.
Recommended Response: Check the fuel level in the tank. If the tank contains fuel, perform a diagnostic check on the "Fuel Filter Plugged" switch (or switches). If fuel usage is excessive, inspect the machine for fuel leakage and repair as needed. Check for any diagnostic code related to the fuel level sensor as well.
E0179 2 Alternator Not Charging Possible Cause:With an engine speed of greater than 600 RPM, the alternator gauge on the control panel is reading zero for more than 60 seconds.
Recommended Response: Use Cat® Electronic Technician (Cat® ET) Service Tool to check for diagnostic codes related to the electrical generating system. Check for diagnostic codes related to a failure
