2. Manually Enter the Aftertreatment Identification Information

The CEM identification plate is located on the electronics panel.
Factory Passwords are required for this procedure.

A. Confirm that a certified CEM is installed on the engine.
Contact your local Caterpillar dealer for a list of approved CEM and RF configurations for your engine.

B. Record the affected CEM serial number and the configuration group from the CEM Identification Plate.

C. Verify that the affected CEM is a certified match with the engine.
Contact a Caterpillar technical communicator, if necessary.
 

Certified match 

Result: The affected CEM is a certified match with the engine.

Proceed to Test Step 3.

Result: The affected CEM is not a certified match for the engine.

Remove the affected CEM and replace the affected CEM with a certified match for the engine. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly for removal and installation procedures. When the new CEM is installed, the"Aftertreatment Identification Number Module" will begin communicating with the ECM and the diagnostic code will be cleared.

When determining if a CEM is a certified match:
The engine ECM will only communicate with the CEM if the total lifetime hours of the engine are less than 100. If the hours are greater than 100, the information from the CEM identification plate must be programmed into the ECM by using Cat ET.
