Case IH 3751 (F-5441-31) – Engine Control Module (ECM): ECU internal failure - Fuel injection energizing phase is not plausible
Issue description
The engine computer has detected that the timing, duration, or electrical pulse angle sent to the fuel injectors is out of expected operational parameters, pointing to an internal processing or hardware failure within the module itself.
Applies to these machines

- 240 Series Axial-Flow Combines
- Steiger Series 4WD Tractors
- Farmall Tractors
- Skid Steer Loaders (SSL)
- Compact Track Loaders (CTL)
- Puma series tractors
- Magnum series tractors
Check the cause
Connect the official Case IH Electronic Service Tool (EST) to the machine's diagnostic port
Attempt to reload the Engine Dataset (software calibration) to the Engine Controller
Monitor the system to see if the fault code persists after the software has been successfully re-flashed
Repair steps
Reload Engine Dataset
Reload the Engine Dataset using the service tool.
Replace Engine Controller
If the fault persists, the Engine Controller (EDC/ECM) must be replaced.
Remove defective controller
Disconnect the battery, remove the wiring harnesses from the defective Engine Controller, and unbolt the unit from its mounting bracket.
Install new controller
Install the new or remanufactured Engine Controller and reconnect the harnesses.
Restore self-learning parameters
Once the new EDC is installed, you MUST follow the appropriate service tool procedure via the EST to restore the engine's self-learning parameters (specifically the Injection Angles and Zero Fuel Calibration).
