CM870 and ISX Engines – FAULT CODE 692

  Printable Version

Overview

Turbocharger Compressor Inlet Air Temperature Sensor Circuit SMALL | MEDIUM | LARGE

Circuit Description

The turbocharger compressor inlet air temperature sensor is used by the electronic control module (ECM) to monitor the turbocharger compressor inlet air temperature. The ECM monitors the voltage on the signal pin and converts this to a temperature value. The turbocharger compressor inlet air temperature value is used by the ECM for the engine protection system and engine emissions control.

Component Location

The turbocharger compressor inlet air temperature sensor is located on the turbocharger compressor inlet. Refer to Section E for a detailed component location view.

Beginning with ESN 14039654, the temperature sensor return circuit was separated from the pressure sensor return circuit. For ESNs prior to this and with engine wiring harness Part Number 3682854, refer to the Common Pressure/Temperature Sensor Return Circuit above. For this ESN and greater or for any other engine wiring harness part number, refer to the Separate Pressure/Temperature Sensor Return Circuit above.

The turbocharger compressor inlet air temperature sensor shares return wires in the engine harness with other sensors. A shorted return can cause multiple fault codes to be active. Before troubleshooting Fault Code 692, check for multiple fault codes.

Possible causes of this fault code include:

• Signal shorted to ground in the harness or ECM
• Signal shorted to return or ground in the sensor.
