Cummins ISL CM850 (2003-06) Fault Code: 144 (Auto) PID: 110 SPN: 110 FMI: 3 Engine Coolant Temperature 1 Sensor Circuit – Voltage Above Normal or Shorted to High Source. High signal voltage or open circuit detected at engine coolant temperature circuit.

Cummins ISL CM850 (2003-06) Fault Code: 144 (Auto) PID: 110 SPN: 110 FMI: 3 Engine Coolant Temperature 1 Sensor Circuit – Voltage Above Normal or Shorted to High Source. High signal voltage or open circuit detected at engine coolant temperature circuit.

Before troubleshooting Fault Code 144, check for multiple faults.

The engine coolant temperature sensor shares return wires in the engine harness with other sensors. An open return can cause multiple fault codes to be active.

Possible causes:

1)Open return circuit in the harness, connectors, or sensor.
2)Open signal circuit or shorted to a voltage source.

On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) Information (Euro 4 Certified Engines):

1)The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
2)The ECM turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and does not fail. The MIL lamp and fault code can also be cleared using the INSITE? service tool.
3)The fault code will be cleared from memory after 40 consecutive drive cycles where the diagnostic runs and passes.

On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) Information (Euro 4 Stage 1+ Certified Engines):

1)The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
2)An engine torque derate will be activated after 50 hours of engine operation with the fault code active.
3)The ECM turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 1 ignition cycle that the diagnostic runs and does not fail. The MIL lamp cannot be cleared using the INSITE? service tool.
4)The fault code will be cleared from memory after 400 days or 9600 hours of engine operation.

Possible repairs:

1)Replace the engine coolant temperature sensor.
2)Replace the ECM.
3)Replace the engine harness.
