MID 128, PID 175


Oil temperature, engine

MID 128: Engine control unit


Fault code
FMI 0: The sensor value is valid but exceeds the nor-
mal working range.
FMI 4: The voltage exceeds the normal value or is
short circuited to higher voltage.
FMI 5: The voltage is less than the normal value or is
there is an open circuit.

FMI Fault code explanation


0 Too high oil temperature
4, 5 Faulty sensor / Faulty sensor circuit

Fault indication
FMI 0: Warning symbol in alarm display flashes
red. Audible warning.
FMI 4, 5: An orange lamp flashes in the alarm dis-
play. Oil temperature gauge shows 0.
The display shows – – –.

Symptom
FMI 0: Engine power is cut.
FMI 4, 5: None.

Connector A
Circuit description
(black) Oil temperature sensor. The sensor which measures oil temperature, is a com-
bined sensor which also measures oil pressure.
The property of a thermistor is that its resistance
changes non-linearly with temperature in the medium
it measures. When the oil in the engine is cold, the
thermistor resistance is high. When the oil warms up,
the thermistor resistance falls.
The voltage drop across the thermistor changes as
the oil temperature changes. The voltage drop is de-
tected via pin 31 on the engine control unit. The en-
gine control unit, pin 7, supplies the sensor, pin 1 with
+5 Volt. The sensor, pin 4, is connected to battery
negative via the engine control unit, pin 11.
Please refer to the table, ”resistance/oil temperature,
Connector B engine”.
