System Overview
SMCS Code: 1901-038
The engine is designed for electronic control of most
engine operating functions. The electronic system
consists of the following components: Electronic
Control Module (ECM), wiring harness, switches,
sensors, and Electronic Fuel Injectors.
Electronic Controls
Electronic Control Module
The ECM controls the engine operation. The ECM
consists of two main components, the control
computer (hardware) and the Personality Module
(software). The control computer consists of
a microprocessor and electronic circuitry. The
personality module is the software for the control
computer which contains operating maps that define
power and torque curves. The ECM monitors the
engine parameters during operation. The ECM
supplies signals to the Electronic Fuel Injectors.
The ECM governs engine speed. Desired engine
speed is determined by the throttle position sensor
signal and certain sensor readings. Diagnostic codes
may derate the engine. Actual engine speed is
supplied to the ECM by the Engine Speed/Timing
sensor.
Fuel Injection
The ECM controls the timing of the engine by varying
the signals to the electronic solenoids that control
fuel injection. Fuel is injected ONLY while an injector
solenoid is energized by a 105 volt signal from the
ECM. By controlling the timing and duration of the
105 volt signal, the ECM controls the fuel injection
timing, the quantity of fuel and the desired engine
speed. Injection timing depends on desired engine
speed, load, and other operational factors.

Passwords are part of a security system that helps to
prevent unauthorized changing of certain parameters.
Passwords prevent unauthorized erasing of logged
events. Passwords allow the factory to control access
to engine calibration parameters. Passwords allow
the customer to control access to certain engine
parameters.
Factory Passwords
Factory passwords are required to clear any event
code. Factory passwords are required to change
certain parameters such as Full Load Setting.
Factory passwords restrict changes to authorized
personnel. When the correct factory passwords have
been entered, the changes can then be made.
Note: Factory passwords are calculated on a
computer system that is only available to Caterpillar
dealers.
Interlock code
Total tattletale
Note: Factory passwords are only valid for the current
Cat ET screen. A different set of factory passwords
will be required if you exit the current Cat ET screen.
A different set of passwords will be required to
change information on another Cat ET screen.
Customer Passwords
Customer passwords allow the customer to restrict
access to parameters that can be changed by the
customer. The customer passwords cannot be longer
than eight characters. The customer passwords may
consist of alphanumeric characters. The customer
has the option of entering one or two customer
passwords.
If customer passwords have been entered, then
the customer passwords are required to change
any parameter that is customer programmable.
Refer to the diagnostic procedure Troubleshooting,
System Configuration Parameters for more detail
on parameters that are customer programmable.
Note: If the customer passwords are lost, the
parameters that are protected by customer
passwords cannot be changed. You must use factory
passwords in order to read the customer passwords.
You may then use those customer passwords to
change parameters that have been protected by
customer passwords.

Injector Solenoids
SMCS Code: 1290-038-JV
System Operation Description:
The engine has Electronic Fuel Injectors that are
mechanically actuated and electronically energized.
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) sends a 105
volt pulse to each injector solenoid. The pulse is
sent at the proper time and at the correct duration
for a given engine load and speed. The solenoid
is mounted on top of the fuel injector body. The
105 volt pulse can be individually cut out to aid in
troubleshooting misfire problems.
If an open is detected in the solenoid circuit, a
diagnostic code is generated. The ECM continues
to try to fire the injector. If a short is detected, a
diagnostic code is generated. The ECM will disable
the solenoid circuit. The ECM will then enable the
solenoid. If the short circuit remains, this sequence of
events will be repeated until the problem is corrected.
