Section 29.3
SPN 110/FMI 3
SPN 110/FMI 3 indicates that the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor (ECT Sensor) input to the MCM has exceeded 95% of the sensor supply voltage. The diagnostic condition is typically engine coolant temperature open circuit (110/3).
Section 29.3.1
Multiple Code Check
as follows:
- Turn the ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).
- Plug in the diagnostic tool.
- Read the active codes.
Section 29.3.2
Open Circuit Check
Check as follows:
- Check for multiple codes.
- If codes 110/3, and 174/3 are present, repair the open circuit between pin 55 of the 120–pin MCM connector and the ECT Sensor and the Supply Fuel Temperature Sensor. Refer to "29.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If SPN 113/0, 174/3, 175/3 and 1636/3 are present, go to step 4 .
- If only fault 110/3 is active, go to the next step.
- Disconnect the ECT Sensor.
- Measure the resistance across pins 1 and 2 of the ECT Sensor. See Figure
"ECT Sensor"
.

Figure 1. ECT Sensor
- If the resistance is greater than 4k Ω, replace the sensor. Refer to "29.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the resistance is less than 4k Ω, repair the open circuit between pin 110 of the MCM 120–pin connector and pin 2 of the ECT Sensor harness connector. Refer to "29.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- Turn the ignition OFF.
- Disconnect the MCM 120–pin connector.
- Connect ONLY the MCM side of the J48475 breakout box.
- Turn the ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).
- Measure the voltage between pins 77, 106, 108, 110 of the MCM 120–pin connector and ground.
- If the voltage is greater than 3.5 volts on any of these pins, contact the Detroit Diesel Customer Support Center at 313–592–5800.
- If the voltage is 3 volts, go to step 6 .
- Turn the ignition OFF.
- Reconnect the 120–pin MCM connector.
- Turn the ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).
- Monitor the active faults.
- Disconnect the ECT Sensor.
- If the faults become inactive, replace the ECT Sensor. Refer to "29.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the faults are still active, go to the next step.
- Disconnect the Supply Fuel Temperature Sensor.
- If the faults become inactive, replace the Supply Fuel Temperature Sensor. Refer to "29.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the faults are still active, go to the next step.
- Disconnect the Engine Oil Temperature Sensor.
- If the faults become inactive, replace the Engine Oil Temperature Sensor. Refer to "29.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the faults are still active, go to the next step.
- Disconnect the Intake Air Temperature Sensor.
- If the faults become inactive, replace the Intake Air Temperature Sensor. Refer to "29.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the faults are still active, repair the short to power on pins 77, 106, 108, 110 of the MCM 120–pin connector and their associated sensors. Refer to "29.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
Section 29.3.2.1
Verify Repairs
Verify repairs as follows:
- Turn ignition OFF.
- Reconnect any electrical connections that were disconnected to perform the diagnosis.
- Clear codes with DDDL 7.0 or latest version.
- Start and bring engine up to operating temperature (over 140°F/60°C).
- Verify operation is satisfactory and no warning lamps illuminate. If warning lamps illuminate, troubleshoot the codes. If assistance is required, call the Detroit Diesel Customer Support Center at 313–592–5800.
