SPN 520296 FMI 13 is the Detroit fault code for EGR Valve Actuator Error, and this 3-page PDF sets out the code description and the step-by-step troubleshooting. The MCM2.1 records this actuator error during the EGR valve actuator internal self test at start-up. Steps cover the low-voltage code SPN 168/FMI 1, the charging and starting systems, exhaust leaks, the actuator pull rod ball sockets, and butterfly stop-to-stop travel.

Who needs this SPN 520296 FMI 13 guide
Diesel technicians working an EGR fault, a 25% derate or an incomplete actuator learn on a Detroit engine use this guide to rule out exhaust leaks, coolant line restrictions and actuator wear before replacing the valve or actuator. This library page summarises the official Detroit fault-code sheet published on TruckFaultCodes.com (Copyright 2017) and is meant as a quick reference. The source document lists exact resistance or pressure ranges, connector pin numbers and torque values in charts, so always confirm those specifications against current Detroit Power Service Literature and the diesel diagnostic tool before condemning a part. Recording your measured values as you work through each step also makes it easier to escalate the case to the Detroit Customer Support Center at 800-445-1980 if the fault stays active. The complete PDF is available in the DiagTechPro manuals library, where a free account is required to download.
