What this code means

Component / fault: Coolant temp sensor.
Reported detail: temperature above normal range.
FMI 0 in the SAE J1939 / Caterpillar CDL convention means: Data valid but above normal operational range (most severe) — see the full FMI reference table.

On a Caterpillar display this code may appear as MID/CID 110 with FMI 0, or in the older PID/SID style. Wording of the reported detail follows the public Caterpillar fault-code listing cited below.

First checks (general, for this failure type)

The measured value itself is too high. Check the actual pressure / temperature / level first, then sensor plausibility and calibration.

These are general electrical checks for FMI 0 faults, not a substitute for the model-specific test procedure. If the fault is active and the machine is derated or shut down, follow the service manual for your model and serial prefix.

Need the part?

If the checks point to a failed sensor, solenoid or harness part, send us the code (110 / FMI 0), the machine model and serial number — we quote genuine and OEM replacement parts for export.
