New Holland NH 3109 – Engine Control Unit (ECU): CC HS Power stage 1 fuel press. Control - NO SIGNAL
Issue description
The engine controller has detected an open circuit or a complete loss of communication ("NO SIGNAL") on the High Side Current Control ("CC HS") circuit for the fuel pressure control valve.
Applies to these machines
3 machines- T6 series
- T7 series
- T7000 series
Check the cause
Visually inspect the fuel pressure control valve electrical connector for disconnected plugs, pushed-out pins, moisture, or severe corrosion.
Test wiring harness continuity from the fuel pressure control valve back to the Engine ECU to ensure there are no broken, chafed, or melted wires causing an open circuit.
Measure the resistance across the pins of the fuel pressure control valve solenoid. An open circuit (infinite resistance) indicates the valve's internal coil has failed.
Inspect the Engine ECU connectors for any bent pins or water ingress that could interrupt the signal.
Repair steps
Safety First
Turn off the machine, remove the key, and disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts.
Access the Pump
Locate the Bosch CP3 high-pressure fuel pump on the engine block. The fuel pressure control valve (M-PROP) is mounted directly to it.
Clean the Area
Thoroughly clean the area around the valve to prevent dirt from entering the high-pressure fuel system during removal.
Disconnect and Remove
Unplug the electrical connector. Remove the mounting screws holding the control valve to the pump housing.
Install the New Valve
Lubricate the O-rings on the new fuel pressure control valve with clean diesel fuel. Carefully insert the new valve into the pump housing and tighten the mounting screws to the manufacturer's torque specification.
Reassemble
Reconnect the electrical harness, ensuring the plug clicks securely into place. Reconnect the battery.
Clear Codes and Test
Use a diagnostic tool or DTC eraser to clear the NH 3109 fault code from the Engine ECU. Start the engine, check for fuel leaks, and verify that the engine runs smoothly without derating or triggering the code again.
