Diagnostic Trouble Codes

The list below deals with the diagnostic trouble codes that are generated by the control units and can be transferred to the databus. In the diagnostic mode, they are displayed on the corner post.

A DTC service code (Diagnostic Trouble Code) consists of three elements:

  • CUI = Control Unit Identifier, refers to the control unit
  • SPN = Suspect Parameter Number; this number refers to the failure detected by the corresponding control unit.
  • FMI = Failure Mode Identifier; this number defines the type of fault.

Priority of Diagnostic Trouble Codes

Each Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) has a priority. The priority of the DTC is indicated in the way the DTC is displayed:

  • STOP = Priority 1 - The Cornerpost Display 1 will stop normal function and the DTC will be displayed. This indicates a problem that requires the forage harvester be stopped, the engine shut off immediately and the problem corrected. The Cornerpost Display 1 will show the DTC until the problem is solved.
  • WARNING = Priority 2 - The Cornerpost Display 1 Diagnostic Indicator comes on. This indicates a problem that should be checked immediately.
  • PROTECT = Priority 3 - DTC's will be stored, but it is not indicated.
