Factory passwords for Reason Code 1 will now require support from the factory. Any requests for a factory password for Reason Code 1 on C7 through C32 Marine Propulsion Engines will require factory authorization. This new policy will be effective on 01September 2006.This will include low power issues and replacement of the Electronic Control Module (ECM). Specific engine information will be required prior to any help with factory passwords for low power issues (FLS/FTS changes).Follow the instructions below and record the measurements before contacting Caterpillar for support.Record the Following Parameters
Use Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to verify and then record specific parameters. Record the parameters by using the "Steady State Data Logger" in Cat ET. The *.ssd format is required in order to supply the parameter information to Caterpillar.

Engine     Required Part Number    
C7 up to C18     179-0710 Meter Gp    
Larger than C18     154-8102 Meter Gp    Verify the Correct Calibration of the Dipstick
Verify that the dipstick has been correctly calibrated by draining the oil and refilling the oil to the correct oil level. Refer to your engine's Operation and Maintenance Manual for the correct oil level for your engine.Troubleshooting Chart for Engines with Low Power
