  The ECM assigns one of the three warning levels to an active event code according to the severity
  of the abnormal system condition. Each warning level requires a specific response from the operator.
                                           023 7
  The warning levels and required operator response are listed below.
                                                           r In
  check the involved system. Perform any necessary maintenance to the system at the earliest
  possible time.
  Warning Level 2
                                                                                                             c.
  Warning Level 2 requires changing the operation of the machine or performing a maintenance
  procedure. Failure to correct the problem behind this warning will damage the components that are
  involved. The problem that caused the event requires correction, before the machine can resume
  operation.
  Warning Level 3
  Warning Level 3 requires an immediate safe shutdown of the machine to avoid damage to the
  machine or injury to personnel around the machine. The problem that caused the event must be
  corrected before machine operation can resume.

Event codes are displayed on Cat ET or the monitor in the following format:
The "E" means that the code is an event code. The "XXXX" is a numeric identifier. The numeric
identifier is followed by a description of the code.
Active event codes are listed in ascending numerical order. The code with the lowest number is
listed first. The active event code is removed from the list when the condition is no longer present.
A logged code is cleared from memory when one of the following conditions occur:
          A new code is logged and there are already ten logged codes in memory. In this case, the oldest
          logged code is cleared.
Note: Always clear logged event codes after investigating and correcting the problem which
generated the code.

1. Obtain the following information from the operator monitor and the machine operator:
             Determine the operating conditions for the engine at the time of the event. Conditions such
             as engine RPM and load may be important.
             Determine if there are any systems that were installed by the dealer or by the customer that
             could cause the event.
   2. Some of the events below can become active during normal system operation. Verify that the
       event is not due to error of the operator.

                             that are acceptable for internal transmission components.
                             During machine retarding with increased output speeds of the
                             engine, torque converter, and transmission, the transmission output

                                        Recommendation:
                                        Change machine operation to allow TCO to cool. If needed, park the
                                        machine and set engine at high idle until TCO temp event clears.

                                        Probable Cause:
                                        Excessive machine operation conditions. Event is logged when the
                                        temperature of the T/C oil has reached a critical level of 135 °C
                                        (275 °F) for 30 seconds.

                                        Probable Cause:
                                        This code could be the result of a failure of a physical or an
  E192         Steering System          electrical component.

                                        Perform a visual inspection of steering linkages. Use Cat ET to
                                        determine if any diagnostic codes related to steering are active or
                                        logged. Correct all diagnostic codes. 
                                        Probable Cause:

  (3)          Disabled Due to
               System Fault             Probable Cause:
                                        This code will activate if the Park Brake solenoid state and the
                                        pressure do not correspond. The Park Brake pressure is high
                                        (released), and the solenoid is de-energized (Park Brake engaged).

                                        Recommendation:
                                        Inspect the park brake fluid connections for signs of damage or
                                        leakage.
                                        Check the Park Brake oil for contamination.

                                        more than 10 seconds.
                                        Note: The engine must be running for more than 60 seconds for the
                                        code to activate.

                                          Event is active when the system voltage exceeds 32 VDC for more
                                          than 5 seconds.
