Title : ACM and DSI Troubleshooting
Applies To : 2010 and 2013 Emission MaxxForce DT, 9 & 10
CHANGE LOG
6/3/14 - Changed wording of step 5
5/13/14 - Added step based diagnostics, revised parts list / verified stock
3/10/14 - Brand new article


DESCRIPTION
This document is for troubleshooting the Aftertreatment Control Module(ACM) and Down Stream Injection(DSI) assembly on the 2010 and 2013
emissions MaxxForce DT/9/10 engines.

NOTE: Before the ACM or DSI is ever replaced it should be thoroughly diagnosed. A majority of concerns are found to be wiring and connection
issues.

SYMPTOM
Intermittent or active codes associated with the ACM or DSI assembly

Diagnostic Trouble Codes
The following is a list of the most frequent codes that are a result of wiring or connection issues:
DTC

Description

3471-10

AFT Fuel Doser Valve Abnormal Rate of Change

3480­3

AFTFP1 signal Out of Range HIGH

609­19

ACM not detected on J1939

3471­7

AFT Fuel Doser Valve Not Responding as Expected

3479­4

AFT Fuel Doser Valve Short to Ground

3482­4

Customer Complaint
- Check engine lamp (aftertreatment codes)
- Unit will not perform a regen (parked or rolling)
- Low power/de-rate (active 3719 codes)

DIAGNOSTICS
The ACM and DSI assembly should be thoroughly diagnosed before one is ever replaced. A majority of units with these codes are found to
have wiring issues with the module or assembly. The following steps highlight areas that should be checked for wiring or connection issues.

Step 2: ACM/DSI wiring inspection

Wiring from the ACM to DSI should be inspected for any chafing and that its
properly routed. Also inspect the powers and grounds for any issues. If the issue is

Step 3: ACM connector inspection

The ACM 86­Pin, 53­pin and the 24­Pin Engine/IP connector should be inspected
for connection issues at the pins. A weak pin or one that is not fully snapped into
the connector can create intermittent codes from engine vibration or road feedback. Yes: Continue to Step 4.

connection or properly snap into the connector. Retest and
verify aftertreatment fault does not return.
Do all connector pins make a secure connection?
*See figure #3

Step 4: Verifying ACM communication

For issues with the Controller Area Network (CAN) bus reference IK0800080.
Ensure the ACM is communicating on the CAN bus and has ignition power
when turned on. Using servicemaxx, the ACM will show up on the sniffer if it is
communicating. Check wiring and splices for any power supply issues. If the ACM
is not properly powered up it will not communicate on the bus.

Yes: Continue to Step 5.
No: Find and correct the wiring or connection issue. Retest
and verify aftertreatment fault does not return.

Does the ACM power up and communicate on the CAN bus?

Step 5: Verify fault codes

Page 4 of 5

Retest for the aftertreatment fault and verify that it is still a current issue (faults have been corrected by disconnecting and reconneting connectors
that had a bad/dirty connection). If all diagnostics have been completed and the fault code continues to return then a new ACM should be installed
(If available try a test ACM first). Verify the fault codes do not return after replacing the module.

Component Location
ACM - Is installed underneath the cab just below the drivers floorboard
DSI Assembly - Is on the left side of the engine, to the rear of the fuel filter module
