SPN 520213 — factory code International, KAMAZ, MAZ and others

Safe to driveDrivable, but watch it yourself

SPN 520213 is a manufacturer number outside the standard J1939 table: different makes can put different things under it. Below — how it is worded by International, KAMAZ, MAZ, Meritor (ex-WABCO), Volvo and YaMZ, and what the second half of the code (FMI) means.

KAMAZ

FMI 12CAN: ETC1 timeout (transmission)

MAZ

FMI 12CAN message ETC1 error - CAN bus message timeout. Blink code: 4-4-3. Repair: Check the CAN line connection to the other CAN devices.

Meritor (ex-WABCO)

FMI 31ESC Calibration Procedure Is Active

Volvo

FMI 3LCM output voltage is equal to or higher than the LCM supply voltage. Wire between the LCM and the lamps shorted to the supply wire. Check all lamps first.
FMI 4LCM output voltage is below 2 V. Wires between the LCM and the lamps shorted to ground.
FMI 5LCM output current to the lamps is below 0.1 A. Open wiring between the LCM and the lamps, or lamp failure.
FMI 6LCM output current to the lamps is above 1.4 A. Wiring between the LCM and the lamps shorted. Possibly several additional lamps are connected, or higher-wattage lamps are installed.

YaMZ

FMI 12ETC1 CAN message fault (CAN bus message timeout). Blink code: 4-4-3. Repair: Check the CAN line connection to the other CAN devices.

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: Drivable, but watch it yourself

This is an electrical fault: an open, a short or a bad contact in the sensor circuit. The value it measures is most likely fine.

You can drive. But until the circuit is repaired this system runs blind and cannot warn you about a real failure.
