Power Train Electronic Control Module (ECM)
g00291779
The power train electronic control module (ECM) is located on the back wall of the cab to the right of
the operator's station. The power train ECM shifts the transmission. The operator input indicates the
desired speed for the transmission and the desired direction for the transmission. The power train ECM
makes decisions that are based on the input information and on the memory information. After the
power train ECM receives the input information and the memory information, the power train ECM
sends a corresponding response via the outputs. The inputs and outputs of the power train ECM are
connected to the machine harness. Use contact connectors J1 and J2.
Inputs
The machine has several input devices. Input devices inform the power train ECM of the operating
conditions of the machine. The machine has inputs from switches and sensors. Switches provide an

open, a ground or a +battery to the inputs of the implement ECM. Sensors provide a constantly changing
signal to the power train ECM. The inputs into the implement ECM are listed in the tables that follow.
Outputs
The power train ECM responds to decisions by sending electrical signals through the outputs. The
outputs can create an action or the outputs can provide information to the power train ECM. The outputs
for the implement ECM are listed in the tables that follow.
Input/Output
The CAT Data Link is used to communicate with the other electronic control modules on the machine.
The CAT Data Link is bidirectional. This allows the power train ECM to receive information and this
allows the power train ECM to send information. The CAT Data Link allows the sharing of information
with other electronic controls.
A module identifier (MID) is assigned to all of the electronic controls that use the CAT Data Link. The
MID for the power train ECM is 081.
Reference: For more information on the CAT Data Link, refer to the Service Manual module Systems
Operation, "CAT Data Link" for the machine that is being serviced.
Reference: For more information on the Caterpillar Monitoring System, refer to the Service Manual
module Systems Operation, "Monitoring System (Power Train Functions)" for the machine that is being
serviced.
