5966-6 3965-6 If the Cat® Electronic Technician (ET) will not communicate with the ECM, refer to Troubleshooting, "Electronic Service Tool Does Not Communicate" before you begin this procedure. The procedure verifies that electrical power is being supplied to the ECM and to the service tool connector.The Systems Communication Status is located under the diagnostics tab in Cat ET. Click the "System Communication Status" option. Once the screen opens up, the information will automatically be loaded from the ECM. If there is an issue with the data link and the data link is repaired, the "Load from ECM" button will have to be clicked again to see the updated status. If there are communication issues between multiple modules, each module can be selected individually to determine which components are having communication issues. If the problem is intermittent, the "View History" button can be clicked to see all the communication faults that have previously logged.
