3288

Case IH 3288 – Engine Control Module (ECM / ECU): Turbo Compound Monitoring - Signal High

Issue description

The engine control system has detected that the signal voltage from the Turbo Compound monitoring sensor is higher than the expected maximum range. A "Signal High" condition typically indicates an open circuit, a disconnected sensor, or a short-to-power in the sensor's wiring harness.

Applies to these machines

  • Case IH Magnum 235
  • Case IH Magnum 260
  • Case IH Magnum 290
  • Case IH Magnum 315
  • Case IH Magnum 340 (Series 4)
  • Case IH Steiger 485

Check the cause

  1. Retrieve active codes using the CNH EASy diagnostic tool to verify if code 3288 is active or stored.

  2. Visually inspect the Turbo Compound monitoring sensor connector (located near the exhaust turbine/hydrodynamic coupling) for corrosion, pushed-out pins, or moisture.

  3. Check the wiring harness between the Turbo Compound sensor and the Engine ECU for chafing, melting, or damage.

  4. Test the signal wire for a short-to-voltage (battery power) or an open circuit (broken wire).

Repair steps

  1. Disconnect the battery to prevent ECU damage.

    Disconnect the battery to prevent ECU damage.

  2. Disconnect the Turbo Compound monitoring sensor harness.

    Disconnect the Turbo Compound monitoring sensor harness.

  3. If the wiring harness tests faulty (open or shorted to power), repair the damaged section of the harness or replace the pigtail connector.

    If the wiring harness tests faulty (open or shorted to power), repair the damaged section of the harness or replace the pigtail connector.

  4. If the wiring tests good (proper ground, proper reference voltage, and continuity to the ECU), the sensor itself has failed internally and must be replaced.

    If the wiring tests good (proper ground, proper reference voltage, and continuity to the ECU), the sensor itself has failed internally and must be replaced.

  5. Reconnect the harness, power the machine, and use the EASy tool to clear the code and verify the sensor signal is now reading within the plausible range.

  • Turbo Compound Monitoring Sensor / Turbo Compound Speed Sensor

    Specific OEM part numbers for this sensor are not published in the available online CNH/FPT parts catalogs. You will need to provide your dealer with the engine serial number (e.g., FPT Cursor 9 / F2C) to look up the exact sensor for the turbo compound gear unit.
