ENG 3377

New Holland ENG 3377 – Engine Controller: Constant Engine RPM Switch Detected but Option Not Enabled

Issue description

Configuration mismatch within the machine's electronic system. The Engine Control Module (ECM) is receiving a physical electrical signal indicating that a Constant Engine RPM Switch is present and being actuated, but the software configuration inside the engine controller does not have this specific feature enabled.

Applies to these machines

  • T8.xxx Series
  • CR9090
  • CX8080 Elevation
  • CX8090 Elevation
  • Magnum 235 - 340 (Series 4)

Check the cause

  1. Physically inspect the cab and operator controls to determine if the machine is actually equipped with a Constant Engine RPM Switch.

  2. If the switch is physically present, verify the Engine Controller's software settings to confirm whether the power management/constant RPM option is turned off.

  3. If the machine is not equipped with this switch, check the engine wiring harness for a short circuit that may be sending a false signal to the ECM.

Repair steps

  1. Connect diagnostic tool

    Connect the dealer diagnostic service tool to the machine's CAN-bus port.

  2. Access configuration menu

    Access the Engine Controller (ECM/EDC) configuration menu.

  3. Enable software feature

    If the switch is installed: Navigate to the engine options and enable the 'Constant Engine RPM' feature in the software.

  4. Repair wiring harness

    If the switch is NOT installed: Trace the wiring harness circuit designated for the Constant Engine RPM switch. Locate and repair any shorts to power or ground that are tricking the ECM into detecting a switch.

  5. Clear fault codes

    Clear the fault codes from the Engine Controller and cycle the key to verify ENG 3377 does not return.
