Schematic of the "Attachment Stem #1 Extend Pressure" Solenoid

This diagnostic code is associated with the "Attachment Stem #1 Extend Pressure" Solenoid. The FMI 05 diagnostic code means that the Machine ECM has determined that the current is below normal.

The possible causes of this diagnostic code are listed below:

  • The energizer circuit of the solenoid for the modulating valve is open.

  • The return circuit of the modulating valve is open.

  • The solenoid has failed.

  • The Machine ECM has failed. A failure of the Machine ECM is unlikely.

Note: The following test procedure may create other diagnostic codes. Ignore these created diagnostic codes and clear these diagnostic codes when the original diagnostic code has been corrected. Ensure that the diagnostic code of CID 1593 FMI 05 is active before performing this procedure.

Note: Use the 257-9140 Fluke Digital Multimeter for the measurements in this procedure.

System Response:

When this diagnostic code is active, the Machine ECM will turn off the current to the failed solenoid.

Test Step 1. CHECK THE SOLENOID

  1. Turn the disconnect switch and the key start switch to the ON position. Do not start the engine.

  2. Disconnect the solenoid with the active diagnostic code from the machine harness.

  3. At the machine harness connector for the solenoid, place a jumper wire from contact 1 (wire K856-PU(Purple)) to contact 2 (wire K869-BU(Blue)).

  4. Observe the status of the CID 1593 FMI 05 diagnostic code.

Expected Result:

The CID 1593 FMI 05 diagnostic code remains active.

Results:

  • YES - The diagnostic code remains active. The jumper wire does not affect the diagnostic code. Proceed to Test Step 2.

  • NO - The diagnostic is no longer active. The solenoid has failed.

    Repair: The solenoid has failed. Repeat this Test Step "CHECK THE SOLENOID" to verify the solenoid failure. Replace the solenoid. Verify that the new solenoid corrects the problem.

    STOP

Test Step 2. CHECK THE HARNESS FOR AN OPEN

  1. Turn the key start switch and the disconnect switch to the OFF position.

  2. Disconnect the machine harness connectors from the Machine ECM.

  3. The jumper wire that was installed in the previous test remains in place.

  4. At the machine harness connector, measure the resistance from signal contact J2-1 (wire K856-PU(Purple)) to contact J2-21 (wire K869-BU(Blue)).

Expected Result:

Both resistances are less than 5.0 ohms.

Results:

  • OK - Both resistances are less than 5.0 ohms. The machine harness is correct. Proceed to Test Step 3.

  • NOT OK - Either resistance is greater than 5000 ohms. The resistance measurement is not correct. There is an open circuit in the machine harness.

    Repair: The open is in wire K856-PU(Purple)or in wire K869-BU(Blue)of the machine harness. Repair the machine harness or replace the machine harness.

    STOP

Test Step 3. CHECK IF THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE REMAINS

  1. Inspect the contacts of the harness connectors and clean the harness connectors.

  2. Reconnect all harness connectors.

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

  4. Operate the machine.

  5. Check the status of the CID 1593 FMI 05 diagnostic code.

Expected Result:

The CID 1593 FMI 05 diagnostic code is active.

Results:

  • YES - The CID 1593 FMI 05 diagnostic code is active. The diagnostic code has not been corrected. The Machine ECM may have failed.

    Repair: A failure of the ECM is unlikely. Exit this procedure and perform this procedure again. If the cause of the diagnostic code is not found, replace the ECM. See Testing and Adjusting, "Electronic Control Module (ECM) - Replace".

    STOP

  • NO - The CID 1593 FMI 05 diagnostic code is not active. The diagnostic code does not exist currently.

    Repair: 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
