DD15 SPN 723/FMI 4 Troubleshooting

SPN 723/FMI 4

A typical diagnosis is a short to ground.‪

Check as follows:‪

  1. Disconnect the CMP Sensor.
  2. Measure the resistance between pin 1 of the CMP Sensor and ground.
    1. If the resistance is greater than 5 Ω, go to the next step.
    2. If the resistance is less than 5 Ω, replace the CMP Sensor.Refer to “73.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
  3. Measure the resistance between pin 2 of the CMP Sensor and ground.
    1. If the resistance is greater than 5 Ω, go to the next step.
    2. If the resistance is less than 5 Ω, replace the CMP Sensor.Refer to “73.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
  4. Disconnect 120-pin MCM connector.
  5. Measure the resistance across pins 1 and 2 of the CMP harness connector.
    1. If the resistance is greater than 5 Ω, go to the next step.
    2. If the resistance is less than 5 Ω, repair the short between pins 1 and 2 of the CMP harness connector and pins 44 and 45 of the 120–pin MCM connector. Refer to “73.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
  6. Measure the resistance between pin 1 of the CMP harness connector and ground.
    1. If the resistance is greater than 5 Ω, go to the next step.
    2. If the resistance is less than 5 Ω, repair the short to ground between pin 1 of the CMP harness connector and pin 44 of the 120–pin MCM connector. Refer to “73.2.1 Verify Repairs” .
  7. Measure the resistance between pin 2 of the CMP harness connector and pin 45 of the 120–pin MCM connector.
    1. If the resistance is greater than 5 Ω, review the previous steps . If the results are the same, contact Detroit Diesel Customer Support Center (313–592–5800).
    2. If the resistance is less than 5 Ω, repair the short to ground between pin 2 of the CMP harness connector and pin 45 of the 120–pin MCM connector. Refer to “73.2.1 Verify Repairs” .

Verify Repairs

Verify repairs as follows:‪

  1. Turn ignition OFF.
  2. Reconnect any electrical connections that were disconnected to perform the diagnosis.
  3. Clear codes with DDDL 7.0 or latest version.
    ENGINE EXHAUST ‪
    To avoid injury from inhaling engine exhaust, always operate the engine in a well-ventilated area. Engine exhaust is toxic.‪
  4. Start and bring engine up to operating temperature (over 140°F/60°C).
  5. Verify operation is satisfactory and no warning lamps illuminate. If warning lamps illuminate, troubleshoot the codes.
