HARNESS AS-CAB 2326306 - Caterpillar

diagnostic code is associated with the Position Sensor (Left Brake Pedal). The FMI 01 means that the ECM has determined that the signal of the sensor is below the normal range.The position sensor is a PWM sensor. The sensor operates at a frequency of 5000 Hertz. The duty cycle is proportional to the position of the pedal. The duty cycle will operate from a range of approximately 10% to 90%. The possible causes of this failure are listed below:
The position sensor has failed.
The signal circuit of the sensor is shorted to the ground.
The ECM has failed. This is unlikely.Note: The following test procedure may create other diagnostic codes. Ignore these created diagnostic codes and clear the diagnostic codes when the original diagnostic code has been corrected.Note: Use the 146-4080 Digital Multimeter for the measurements in this procedure.Test Step 1. INSPECT THE SENSOR.
Perform a visual inspection of the sensor, the wiring for the sensor and the hardware that is associated with the sensor.Expected Result:There is no apparent damage to the sensor, the wiring for the sensor or the hardware that is associated with the sensor.Results:
OK - There is no apparent damage to the sensor, the wiring for the sensor or the hardware that is associated with the sensor. Proceed to Test Step 2.
NOT OK - There is apparent damage to the sensor, the wiring for the sensor or the hardware that is associated with the sensor. Repair: Replace the damaged part. Proceed to Test Step 8.Test Step 2. CHECK FOR POWER AT THE SENSOR.
Do not disconnect the harness connector from the sensor.
At the back of the harness connector for the sensor, insert a 7X-1710 Multimeter Probe along the voltage supply wire (contact A).
Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the ON position.
Measure the voltage from contact A to frame ground.Expected Result:The voltage measurement is approximately battery voltage.Results:
OK - The voltage is approximately battery voltage. Proceed to Test Step 3.
NOT OK - The voltage is not approximately battery voltage. The circuit is open.Repair: Repair the machine harness or replace the machine harness. Stop.Test Step 3. CHECK FOR PROPER GROUND AT THE SENSOR.
The machine harness remains connected to the sensor.
Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the OFF position.
Remove the 7X-1710 Multimeter Probe from the voltage supply wire (contact A).
At the back of the harness connector for the sensor, insert a 7X-1710 Multimeter Probe along the ground wire (contact B).
Measure the resistance
