SPN 3361 — Aftertreatment 1 AdBlue Dosing Unit

Safe to driveEnough to reach the yard

J1939 code SPN 3361. Below — how the fault is worded at the factory by Dongfeng and SITRAK, and what the second half of the code (FMI) means in the standard.

Dongfeng

FMI 2Incorrect urea pump internal temperature. Scan tool code: P2047. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.
FMI 9Timeout of a message from the dosing module
FMI 12Internal malfunction of the SCR dosing module

SITRAK

FMI 2DEF dosing valve jammed. Scan tool code: P2047. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.
FMI 3Open load or high-side short to battery on the DEF dosing valve. Scan tool code: P2049. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.
FMI 4Open load or low-side short to ground on the DEF dosing valve. Scan tool code: P2048.
FMI 5Open load or high-side short to battery on the DEF dosing valve. Scan tool code: P2049. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.
FMI 6Over-temperature in the DEF dosing valve circuit. Scan tool code: P3009. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.
FMI 11DEF dosing valve nozzle clogged. Scan tool code: P2047.
FMI 15Open load or high-side short to battery on the DEF dosing valve. Scan tool code: P2049. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.
FMI 17DEF dosing valve jammed. Scan tool code: P2047.
FMI 22Open load on the DEF dosing valve. Scan tool code: P2047. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.
FMI 25DEF dosing valve short to battery. Scan tool code: P2047. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.
FMI 27DEF dosing valve short to ground. Scan tool code: P2047. Effect: OBD limits torque immediately.

Can I keep driving

Safe to drive. Below — how much time you have and what happens if you keep going.

What happens if you keep driving

Time you have: Enough to reach the yard

Urea dosing is interrupted and the ECU is counting. First the lamp, then a torque cut, then a forced crawl speed — the stages come in by engine hours, not all at once.

The truck will not die mid-highway, but the window shrinks with every running hour. Plan the repair now, not when the power is gone: an emulator or "deleting AdBlue" does not remove the problem, the codes keep stacking.

What to check on the spot

Fill the AdBlue tank. If it’s already full, the problem is dosing or reductant quality — you need a scanner.

Where to start

This code is often not the fault itself but a knock-on. If any of these is in the same readout, start with it:

Nearby: AdBlue / exhaust

Scanner threw several codes at once? Paste the whole list — we will show which one is the root cause and which ones simply followed.
