17611 (F-518220-31) - ECU

Case IH 17611 (F-518220-31) - ECU – Engine Control Module (ECM / ECU): ECU Internal: Error in total injection quantity at level 2

Issue description

This code indicates an internal failure or calibration error within the engine's control module. It is classified as a Level 2/3 internal monitoring error. The ECU continuously monitors fuel injection quantities for safety and emissions compliance; this code triggers when the Level 2 internal security/plausibility checks detect that the total injection quantity calculation is out of bounds or failing.

Applies to these machines

  • VESTRUM CVX
  • Case IH Austoft 9900 and 9000 Series
  • Case IH Axial-Flow Combines (AFX 7240, 7250, AF 7250)

Check the cause

  1. Connect a diagnostic tool and erase the Level 2/3 error (17611 / 518220-31) from the fault code memory

  2. Operate the vehicle for a short distance or run the machine under normal operating load to check the operation point

  3. Monitor if the code returns (this procedure is independent of any Level 1 errors that may have been logged in parallel)

Repair steps

  1. Erase fault code

    Connect your diagnostic tool and erase the Level 2/3 error (17611 / 518220-31) from the fault code memory.

  2. Perform test drive

    Operate the vehicle for a short distance (e.g., a few kilometers) or run the machine under normal operating load to check the operation point.

  3. Evaluate transient error

    If the Level 2/3 error does not reappear after the test run, do not replace the ECU. The erasure of the fault code memory is sufficient to resolve the transient error.

  4. Replace Engine ECU

    If the Level 2/3 error reappears in a short time, the internal failure is permanent and you must replace the Engine ECU. A blank or remanufactured ECU must be programmed by a Case IH dealer using the EST (Electronic Service Tool) to match the machine's specific fuel mapping and immobilizer/CAN-bus configuration.
