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.
- Identify the active FMI code associated with the components.
- Determine which code is present and use the list below to determine which procedure to follow.
- FMI 3 diagnostic code, proceed to "FMI 3".
- FMI 4 diagnostic code, proceed to "FMI 4".
- FMI 6 diagnostic code, proceed to "FMI 6".
Check The Voltage At The Cameras | ||
---|---|---|
Troubleshooting Test Steps | Values | Results |
1. Turn the start switch and disconnect switch ON. 2. Disconnect the machine harness connector for the cameras. 3. At the machine harness connector for the cameras, measure the voltage between the camera supply contact and the camera return contact. |
Voltage reading is correct for the cameras. | Result: The voltage reading is correct for the cameras. Proceed to "Check If The Diagnostic Code Remains" Table 6. Result: The voltage is greater than the supply for the circuit. Proceed to "Check The Power Supply At The Display" Table 4. |
Check The Power Supply At The Display | ||

Troubleshooting Test Steps | Values | Results |
1. Turn the start switch and disconnect switch to the OFF position. 2. At the harness connector for the display, use a 151-6320 Removal Tool to remove the supply wire and the camera return wire. The harness connector remains connected to the display. 3. Turn the disconnect switch and the start switch to the ON position. 4. Use the multimeter probes to make contact on the connector pins. Measure the voltage at the display pins between the camera supply contact and camera return contact . |
Voltage reading is correct for the supply. | Result: The voltage is correct. The display power supply is correct. Install the wires and sockets that were removed from the display connector back into the original locations. Proceed to "Check For A Short In the Harness" Table 5. Result: The voltage measurement is greater than the supply voltage. The measurement is not correct. The display may have failed. Proceed to "Check If The Diagnostic Code Remains" Table 6. |
Check For A Short In the Harness | ||
---|---|---|
Troubleshooting Test Steps | Values | Results |
1. The cameras remain disconnected from the machine harness. 2. The start switch and disconnect switch remain OFF. 3. Disconnect the machine harness connectors from the display. 4. At the display harness connector, measure the resistance between the supply contact and all the other contacts that are used for the display. |
Each resistance is greater than 5K Ω. | Result: Each resistance is greater than 5K Ω. Proceed to "Check If The Diagnostic Code Remains" Table 6. Result: One or more readings less than 5 Ω. There is a short between the signal contact and the circuit with the low resistance. Repair: Refer to the complete electrical schematic. Examine all the connectors of the machine harness for possible short circuits. Repair or replace the machine harness. Note: A resistance that is greater than 5 Ω but less than 5K Ω would indicate a loose connection or a corroded connection in the circuit. A resistance measurement that is greater than 5K Ω would indicate an open in the circuit. Proceed to "Check If The Diagnostic Code Remains" Table 6. |
