System Schematic For CAT Data Link
On C32 packages, the GSC+P uses the CAT Data
Link in order to communicate with the engine ECM.
The CAT Data Link consists of two wires that connect
the GSC+P to the engine ECM.
The possible causes of a CID 248 FMI 9 a re listed
below.
•
A s hort to the positive battery terminal (“BATT+”) of
either of the two CAT Data Link wires
•
A short to the negative battery terminal (“BATT-”)
of either of the two CAT Data Link wires
The GSC+P cannot detect an open in the circuit of
the CAT Data Link. The GSC+P treats a CID 248 FMI
9 as an alarm fault. Active alarm faults are shown on
the display when the “Alarm Codes” key is pressed.
The E ng in e Control Switch (ECS) is in any position
except the OFF/RESET position. Troubleshoot and
repair the wiring. Refer to Testing And Adjusting,
“Schematics And Wiring Diagrams”. Clear the fault
from the fault log after tro u bleshooting is complete.
Test Step 1. CHECK T HE POSITIVE
BATTERY TERMINAL
A. Ensure that there are not shorts between “BATT+”
and either of the CAT Data Link wires.
B. Turn the ECS to OFF/RESET.
C. Disconnect both cables from the battery.
D. Measure the resistance between the positive
battery cable and both CAT Data Link wires.
Expected Result:
The resistance between the positive battery cable
and both of the CAT Data Link wires should be
greater than 5000 ohms.
Results:
•
OK – The resistance between the disconnected
positive battery cable and either of the CAT Data
Link wires is greater than 5000 ohms. Proceed to
Test S t e p 2.
•
NOT OK – The resistance between the
disconnected positive battery cable and either of
the CAT Data Link wires is less than 5000 ohms.
Repair: Troubleshoot and repair the wiring.
Repair any shorts between “BATT+” and the CAT
Data Link wires. Refer to Testing And Adjusting,
“Schematics And Wiring Diagrams”.
STOP.
Tes t Step 2. CHECK THE BATTERY
NEGATIVE TERMINALS
A. Ensure that there are no shorts between the
battery negative terminal and either of the CAT
Data Link wires.
B. Turn the ECS to OFF/RESET.
C. Disconnect both cables from the battery.
D. Measure the resistance between the negative
battery cable and both CAT Data Link wires.
Expected Result:
The resistance between the negative battery cable
and both of the CAT Data Link w ires should be
greater than 50 00 o hms.
Results:
•
OK – The resistance between the disconnected
negative battery cable and either of the CAT Data
Link wires is greater than 5000 ohms. STOP.
•
NOT OK – The resistance between the
disconnected negative battery cable and either of
the CAT Data Link wires is less than 5000 ohms.
Repair: Troubleshoot and repair the wiring. Repair
any shorts between the disconnected negative
battery cable and the CAT Data Link wires. Refer
to Testing And Adjusting, “Schematics And Wiring
Diagrams”.
STOP.
