MID 128: Engine control unit Fault code
FMI 0:The sensor value is valid but exceeds the normal working range. FMI 1:The sensor value is valid but is less than the normal working range. FMI 3:The voltage exceeds the normal value or is short circuited to higher voltage. FMI 4:The voltage is less than the normal value or is short circuited to battery negative. FMI 5:The current is less than the normal value or is open circuited. FMI 6:The current is greater than the normal value or is short circuited to battery negative. FMI 9:Abnormal updating rate.
FMI Fault code explanation
0 Too high lube oil pressure 1 Too low lube oil pressure 3, 4, 5, 6, 9 Faulty sensor / Faulty sensor circuit
Fault indication
Warning is displayed in the tachometer/display. FMI 1: Oil pressure indication in alarm display shows red. Audible warning.
FMI 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9:A red lamp flashes in the alarm display.
Symptom
Engine power is limited.
Connector (36 pin)
Circuit description
Sensor is an active sensor, i.e. the sensor must have operating voltage. Pin 9 on the engine control unit (EDC7) provides pin 1 on the sensor with an operating voltage of +5 Volt. Pin 4 on the monitor is connected to battery negative via pin 19 on the control unit. The output signal from the pressure sensor (pin 2 on sensor to pin 33 on the control unit) is a voltage signal which is proportional to the oil pressure (after the oil filters).
Fault tracing
FMI 0: Too high lube oil pressure
Conditions for fault code
Oil pressure exceeds 600 kPa (6,0 bar).
Possible reason
● Lube oil contaminated or far too thick (high viscosity). ● Fault in reduction valve or pressure relief valve. ● Fault in sensor.
Suitable action 1
Check the oil level in the engine.
2
Check that the oil filters are not blocked. Change oil filters.
3
Check that no leakage occurs.
4
Check the sensor by checking the engine oil pressure. Please, refer to “Lubrication system, Workshop manual”.
FMI 1: Too low lube oil pressure
Conditions for fault code
Oil pressure is less than 50–250 kPa (0.5–2.5 bar) at engine speeds up to 4,000 rpm.
Possible reason
● Too low lube oil level. ● Oil contaminated, viscous or too thin. ● Fault in bypass valves. ● Worn oil pump. ● Blocked oil suction pipe. ● Blocked oil filter.
Suitable action 1
Check the oil level in the engine.
2
Check that the oil filters are not blocked. Change oil filter.
3
Check that no leakage occurs. Please, refer to Workshop manual.
4
Check the sensor by checking the engine oil pressure. See “Lubrication system, Workshop manual”.
