SPN 520527 — factory code Meritor (ex-WABCO) and SITRAK

Safe to driveDrivable, but watch it yourself

SPN 520527 is a manufacturer number outside the standard J1939 table: different makes can put different things under it. Below — how it is worded by Meritor (ex-WABCO) and SITRAK, and what the second half of the code (FMI) means.

Meritor (ex-WABCO)

FMI 3Failure detection 'ShortUb' at SolenoidValve (Trailer ABV)
FMI 4Failure detection 'ShortGnd' at SolenoidValve (Trailer ABV)
FMI 5Failure detection 'Interruption' at SolenoidValve (Trailer ABV)
FMI 13Failure detection 'OverEquipped' at SolenoidValve (Trailer ABV)

SITRAK

FMI 16DEF tank level sensor physical value above the upper limit. Scan tool code: P203A. Effect: Torque limited, MIL on, power may drop to 60%.
FMI 18DEF tank level sensor physical value below the lower limit. Scan tool code: P203A. Effect: Torque limited, MIL on, power may drop to 60%.

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.
