0164-00 Excessive Injection Actuation Pressure (17)
Conditions Which Generate This Code:
The Engine Control Module (ECM) detected the following conditions:
- The injection actuation pressure is greater than 30 MPa (4351 psi) for more than six seconds.
- Engine speed is greater than 0 rpm.
- Engine coolant temperature is more than 18 °C (64 °F).
- The ECM has been powered for at least three seconds.
- Cold mode is not active.
Note: The diagnostic code indicates a mechanical problem. The ECM and the electronic control system is operating correctly.
System Response:
"0%" is displayed next to the status for "Injector Output %" on the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET).
The check engine lamp will illuminate.
The engine may emit white smoke at start-up because Cold Mode is not active.
Note: The problem may only exist at operating temperature.
Test Step 1. Perform the following diagnostic procedure: Injection Actuation Pressure - Test
Results:
- OK - STOP
