Schematic of the Left-Hand Joystick Position Sensor (Base)
This diagnostic code is associated with the forward-rearward location for the Left Joystick Position
Sensor. The sensor provides an input signal to the ECM. This diagnostic code is recorded when the
ECM determines that the voltage of the signal is above normal.
The position sensor is a PWM sensor that operates at a frequency of approximately 500 ± 80 Hz. The
duty cycle of the signal will vary. The signal will vary approximately 20% at the joystick in the full
rearward position. The signal will vary by approximately 80% at the joystick in the full forward
position. When the joystick is in the center position, the duty cycle will be approximately 50%.
Before performing this procedure, inspect the harness connectors that are involved in the
circuit. Poor connections can often be the cause of a problem in an electrical circuit. Verify that
all the connections in the circuit are clean. Verify that all the connections in the circuit are
secure. Verify that all the connections in the circuit are in good condition. If a problem with a
connection is found, correct the problem and verify that this diagnostic code is active before
performing this procedure.
Note: The following test procedure may create other diagnostic codes. Ignore these created diagnostic
codes and clear the diagnostic codes when the problem has been corrected. Verify that CID 2474 FMI
03 is active before performing this procedure.
System Response:
The diagnostic will generate a level 2 warning. The machine will be brought to a stop, and the park
brake will be engaged. The park brake will remain engaged until the diagnostic code has been cleared
and the hystat lever has been returned to the neutral position.
B. At the harness connector for the left joystick, insert 7X-1710 Multimeter Probes along the
contact for the power supply 1 (wire 126-PK(Pink)) and along ground contact 2 (wire A285-BK
(Black)). Do not disconnect the machine harness from the connector for the joystick.
C. Measure the (12 VDC) battery voltage of the sensor power supply.
Expected Result:
The (12 VDC) battery voltage measurement is available.
Results:
Repair: Either the wire for the sensor ground in the circuit A285-BK(Black)or the supply wire
126-PK(Pink)has a bad connection or an open in the machine harness. Refer to the Electrical
System Schematic. Examine all the connectors that are in the circuit. Verify that all circuit
connections are clean. Verify that all circuit connections are secure. Verify that all circuit
connections are in good condition. Repair or replace the machine harness.
STOP
A. Disconnect the negative battery cable and turn the key start switch to the OFF position.
B. Disconnect the machine harness connector at the left joystick. At the harness connector for the
joystick, place a jumper wire between the contact for the sensor return (wire A285-BK(Black))
and the signal contact (wire E848-GN(Green)).
D. At the harness connector for the Machine ECM, measure the resistance from (wire A285-BK
(Black)(ECM contact J2-7) to signal contact J1-71 (wire E848-GN(Green)).
Expected Result:
Results:
• OK - The resistance measurement is less than 5 ohms. The sensor circuit is not open. Proceed
to Test Step 2.
• NOT OK - The resistance measurement is greater than 5 ohms. There is an open or a bad
connection in the signal circuit.
Repair: Refer to the complete Electrical System Schematic for the machine. Check all the
connectors that are in the sensor signal circuit. Ensure that all connections are clean. Ensure that
all connections are secure. Ensure that all connections are in good condition. Repair or replace
the machine harness.
STOP
C. At the J1 machine harness connector for the Machine ECM, measure the resistance from the
sensor signal contact J1-71 (wire E848-GN(Green)) to all the other J1 contacts that are used for
the Machine ECM.
Expected Result:
Results:
• OK - Each resistance measurement is greater than 5000 ohms. The signal circuit is not shorted.
Proceed to Test Step 4.
Repair: There is a short in the machine harness. The short is between the signal circuit and the
circuit with the low-resistance measurement. Repair or replace the machine harness.
STOP
A. Reconnect the machine harness connectors to the ECM. Reconnect the machine harness
connector to the sensor.
B. Perform the following procedure to the left joystick. On the left joystick, insert 7X-1710
Multimeter Probes along the sensor signal contact 5 and the ground contact 2.
C. Reconnect the negative battery cable and turn the key start switch to the ON position.
D. Measure the duty cycle of the joystick at the connector. The connector is at the sensor on the
contacts 5 and 2. Move the joystick through the full range of the sensor that is described at the
beginning of this procedure.
Expected Result:
The duty cycle of the Left Joystick for the Forward and Rearward sensor is correct according to the
description at the beginning of this procedure.
Results:
• OK - The duty cycle of the sensor is correct. The sensor is not the cause of the problem.
Reconnect the signal wire and the socket in the machine harness connector for the joystick.
Proceed to Test Step 5.
• NOT OK - The duty cycle of the sensor is NOT correct according to the description at the
beginning of this procedure. The sensor has failed.
Repair: The sensor for this operation is faulty. Replace the assembly for the left joystick. After
replacement of the joystick, verify that the operation of the new joystick is correct before
operating the machine.
STOP
A. Inspect the harness connectors. Clean the harness contacts of the harness connectors. Check the
wires for damage to the insulation that is caused by excessive heat, corrosion, or chafing.
B. Perform a 45 N (10 lb) pull test on each of the wires that are associated with the sensor circuit.
C. Reconnect all harness connectors. Make sure that the connectors are fully seated. Make sure
that the clips for each connector are fastened completely.
Expected Result:
Results:
• OK - The CID 2474 FMI 03 diagnostic code is not active. The diagnostic code does not exist at
this time. The initial diagnostic code was probably caused by a poor connection or a short at
one of the connectors that was disconnected and reconnected. Resume normal operation.
STOP
• NOT OK - The CID 2474 FMI 03 diagnostic code is active. The diagnostic code has not been
corrected.
Repair: ECM failure is unlikely. Perform this procedure again. If the cause of the diagnostic
code is not found, contact your Dealer Technical Communicator (TC) for possible consultation
with Caterpillar. This consultation may greatly reduce repair time. If the ECM requires
replacement, refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Electronic Control Module (ECM) - Replace".
