ECU 002790.16 – Turbocharger Compressor Outlet Temperature Moderately High. John Deere System Advisory.

ECU 002790.16 (ECU 2790.16)

Code: 002790.16

Shortcode: 2790.16

Description:

This error code, ECU 002790.16, is triggered when the turbocharger compressor outlet temperature exceeds the moderate threshold above the specified limit. This condition can indicate a potential issue with the turbocharger system, such as a clog in the intercooler, inefficient cooling, or excessive engine load.

Reaction:

The ECU may respond by adjusting engine performance to protect the turbocharger and other engine components from heat-related damage.

Recommendations:

  • Inspect Intercooler and Cooling System: Check the intercooler for blockages, leaks, or damage that could impede cooling efficiency.
  • Evaluate Turbocharger Operation: Ensure the turbocharger is operating within its designed parameters. Over-spinning or excessive pressure can lead to high outlet temperatures.
  • Monitor Engine Loads: Analyze engine operation to ensure it is not being consistently operated in a high-load state that could contribute to elevated temperatures.
  • Reset ECU and Conduct Performance Checks: After inspecting and addressing potential issues, reset the ECU to ensure all systems recalibrate to the changes. Conduct a test to ensure the temperature remains within the specified range under normal operating conditions.

Note:

Regular maintenance of the turbocharger and its associated components is crucial to prevent overheating and ensure optimal performance. Monitor temperatures closely, especially in high-demand scenarios.
