Diagnostic Codes for High Intake Manifold Air Temperature
J1939 Code Code Description Comments
105-15 Engine Intake Manifold #1 Temperature : High - least severe (1) The engine has been running for 3 minutes.
No other 105 codes are active.
168 codes are not active.
The intake manifold air temperature exceeds the value that is programmed into the ECM for 8 seconds. The code is logged.
This code will be reset when the temperature is less than 63° C (145° F) for 4 seconds.
105-16 Engine Intake Manifold #1 Temperature : High - Moderate Severity (2) The engine has been running for 3 minutes.
No other 105 codes are active.
168 codes are not active.
The intake manifold air temperature exceeds the value that is programmed into the ECM for 8 seconds. The engine will be derated. The code is logged.
This code will be reset when the temperature is less than 77° C (171° F) for 20 seconds.
105-0 Engine Intake Manifold #1 Temperature : High - most severe (3) The engine has been running for 3 minutes.
No other 105 codes are active.
168 codes are not active.
The intake manifold air temperature exceeds the value that is programmed into the ECM for 8 seconds. The engine will be derated. The code is logged.
This code will be reset when the temperature is less than 77° C (171° F) for 20 seconds. Probable Causes

Troubleshooting Test Steps Values Results
1. Coolant Level
A. Check that the coolant is filled to the correct level.
Note: If the coolant level is too low, air will get into the cooling system. Air in the cooling system will cause a reduction in coolant flow.
Coolant
Result: The coolant level is low.
Fill the coolant system to the correct level. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Coolant Level - Check".
Result: The coolant level is OK.
Proceed to Test Step 2.
2. Air Intake and Exhaust System
A. Check the air intake and exhaust system for the following defects:
-Blockages
-Restrictions
-Damage to the air intake ducts and hoses
-Loose connections and air leaks
Air intake and exhaust
Result: The air intake or exhaust system is blocked, restricted, damaged, or loose.
Make all necessary repairs to the air intake system.
Result: The air intake and exhaust system is OK.
For applications with a raw water cooling system or a keel cooled cooling system, proceed to Test Step 3.
For applications with a radiator cooling system, proceed to Test Step 5.
3. Check for an Obstructed Heat Exchanger
A. The intake manifold air temperature can increase if the flow through the heat exchanger is obstructed. Check the heat exchanger for obstructions or debris.
