Massey Ferguson 3234.03 – ECU: NOx Sensor Outlet SCR Signal Issue. (ECU)
Issue description
The engine control system is detecting an abnormal electrical signal from the Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) sensor located downstream (at the outlet) of the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalyst. An FMI of .03 indicates that the sensor's voltage is above normal or shorted to a high source, preventing accurate measurement of emissions.

Check the cause
Inspect the wiring harness running from the ECU to the outlet NOx sensor module for melted wires, chafing against the chassis, or rodent damage
Disconnect the NOx sensor plug and check for water ingress, DEF fluid contamination, or bent/corroded pins
Using a multimeter, verify that the sensor is receiving proper supply voltage and has a solid ground
Verify the CAN High and CAN Low lines at the sensor connector for proper voltage and continuity
Ensure there are no exhaust leaks near the sensor bung, which can skew readings and cause implausible signal faults
Repair steps
Power Down
Turn off the tractor and disconnect the battery to prevent electrical spikes.
Locate the Sensor
Locate the Outlet NOx sensor on the exhaust pipe. It will be positioned downstream of the SCR catalyst/DPF assembly.
Disconnect
Unplug the electrical connector linking the sensor module to the main harness.
Remove the Sensor
Using a specialized NOx sensor socket or a wrench, unscrew the sensor probe from the exhaust bung. (Note: Exhaust sensors are prone to seizing. Apply penetrating oil and allow it to soak if the sensor is stuck).
Install the New Sensor
Apply a small amount of high-temperature anti-seize to the threads of the new sensor (if not pre-applied by the manufacturer). Thread it into the exhaust bung and tighten to the OEM torque specification.
Route Wiring
Securely mount the new sensor's control module and route the wiring harness away from extreme heat sources. Reconnect the electrical plug.
Clear Codes
Reconnect the battery. Connect the AGCO Electronic Diagnostic Tool (EDT) to clear the fault codes. You may need to run a stationary SCR system test or reset the NOx sensor adaptations so the ECU recognizes the new component.
Parts you might need
(1)Exhaust Outlet NOx Sensor (Downstream) / SCR Catalyst Outlet Gas Temp & NOx Sensor
Exact AGCO part numbers vary heavily depending on the specific AGCO Power (Sisu) engine displacement. Provide the tractor's serial number to an AGCO dealer to obtain the exact matching part number.
