Machine ECM

The following is a list of Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) associated with the ECM location code of the machine.

Table 1
Machine ECM 
DTC  Description  System Response 
1326-2  ECM Location Code: Data erratic, intermittent, or incorrect  Implement cannot be initialized
Unknown Application in Implement
Implement may work improperly and cannot communication with other ECMs 

The ECM location code is defined by wires going from the ECM location code pins on the ECM to ground. The combination of wires connected to ground corresponds with the software on the ECM. If the incorrect wires are connected to ground, or the incorrect version of the ECM software is installed a 1326-2 diagnostic code will occur.

Note: If the location code went bad during run time, after key on, then the diagnostic code activates but the functionality is not affected.

The diagnostic code is recorded when the ECM sees Data erratic, intermittent, or incorrect.

Possible Causes for an FMI 2 Diagnostic Code are:

  • The wires for the location code are open or the wires are shorted.

  • The wrong software is installed on an ECM.

Diagnostic Trouble Code Procedure

Note: Prior to beginning this procedure, inspect the harness connectors that are involved in this circuit. Poor connections can often be the cause of a problem in an electrical circuit. Verify that all connections in the circuit are clean, secure, and in good condition. If a problem with a connection is found, correct the problem and verify that the diagnostic code is active before performing a troubleshooting procedure. For sensors powered via the fuse panel, check the condition of the appropriate fuse before beginning the troubleshooting procedure.

Troubleshooting Test Steps  Values  Results 
Begin Process For FMI 2 Troubleshooting Here 
1. Verify The Hardware And The Software Part Numbers

A. Using "WinFlash" check that the latest software for each ECM corresponds with the correct location code. Check with your dealer for the latest software part numbers.

B. The check the part number of the flash software for the ECM.

C. The check the part number of the other ECM modules. 

All part numbers are correct. 
OK - All part numbers are correct.

Proceed to Test Step 2.

NOT OK - No ECM shows any of the location codes listed. There is a problem with the machine harness.

Repair: Repair or replace the machine harness.

NOT OK - All part numbers are NOT correct. The installed ECM has the wrong part number or incorrect configuration software is installed.

Repair: Flash the correct configuration software on the ECM with the displayed location code. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Electronic Control Module (ECM) - Flash Program". Prior to replacing an ECM, always contact the Technical Communicator for your dealership for possible consultation with AVSpare. This consultation may greatly reduce repair time.

See the Troubleshooting, "ECM - Replace" section of this manual for additional information.

Proceed to Test Step 5. 
2. Inspect The Harness Connections


A. Turn the disconnect switch to the OFF position.

B. Inspect all harness connections that are related to the location codes. Make sure that the connectors are clean and tight.

C. Check the connectors for proper mating. Ensure that all the seals are present and in place.

D. Check the harness for signs of damage or abrasion.

E. Check the wires at the connector. Ensure that the wires are secured tightly into the connector. Take care not to pull the wire out of the connector.

F. Check the exposed wires at the connectors for nicks or signs of abrasion.

G. Check for moisture inside the connector.

H. Check the connectors for dirty contacts or corroded contacts.

I. Check each pin and each socket of the machine harness connectors. Ensure that the contacts are properly installed. The contacts should mate correctly when the two pieces of the connector are placed together. 

The machine harness connectors are tight and free of corrosion. 
OK - The machine harness connectors are tight and free of corrosion.

Proceed to Test Step 3.

NOT OK - The machine harness connectors are in need of repair.

Repair: Repair or replace the machine harness.

Proceed to Test Step 5. 
3. Check For Shorts to Ground

A. The disconnect switch remains in the OFF position.

B. Disconnect the machine harness connectors from the ECM.

C. At the machine harness for the ECM, measure the resistance between the location code contacts and the frame ground. 

Reading less than 5 Ω. 
OK - Each of the resistance measurements is less than 5 Ω.

Proceed to Test Step 4.

NOT OK - One of the resistance measurements is greater than 5 Ω. The machine harness has failed.

Repair: Repair or replace the machine harness.

Proceed to Test Step 5. 
4. Check For Shorts to the +Battery Circuit

A. The disconnect switch remains in the OFF position.

B. The machine harness remains disconnected from the ECM.

C. At the machine harness for the ECM, measure the resistance between the location code contacts and all possible sources of the +battery circuit. 

Reading greater than 5K Ω. 
OK - Each of the resistance measurements is greater than 5K Ω.

Proceed to Test Step 5.

NOT OK - One of the resistance measurements is less than 5K Ω. The machine harness has failed.

Repair: Repair or replace the machine harness.

Proceed to Test Step 5. 
5. Check If The Diagnostic Code Remains

Note: There is a 2 minute interval time on this code.

A. Perform a 45 N (10 lb) pull test on each of the wires that are associated with the circuit.

B. Reconnect all harness connectors. Verity that the connectors are fully seated and clips are fastened.

C. Turn the disconnect switch and the key start switch to the ON position.

D. Operate the machine.

E. Check the status of the diagnostic code. 

The diagnostic code is not active. 

OK - The diagnostic code is not active. The diagnostic code does not exist currently. The initial diagnostic code was probably caused by a poor electrical connection or a short at one of the harness connectors. Resume normal machine operation.

STOP.

NOT OK - The diagnostic code is active. The diagnostic code has not been corrected. The ECM may have failed.

Repair: A failure of the ECM is unlikely. If the cause of the diagnostic code is not found, the ECM may have failed. Prior to replacing an ECM, always contact the Technical Communicator for your dealership for possible consultation with AVSpare. This consultation may greatly reduce repair time. If the ECM requires replacement, see the Troubleshooting, "ECM - Replace" section of this manual for additional information.

STOP.
