Applicable truck models
This procedure applies to the Caterpillar C15 on-highway truck engine, configuration MXS00001-UP (MXS prefix). It addresses the 5 volt regulated supply that feeds the atmospheric pressure sensor, intake manifold pressure (boost) sensor, engine oil pressure sensor, and the pressure sensor for the intake valve actuation system. DTCs covered include 0212-03, 0212-04, 0232-03, and 0232-04. The ECM supplies 5.0 ± 0.16 VDC through the J2/P2 connector to all four sensors.

Who needs this CAT C15 sensor supply troubleshooting manual
Diesel mechanics and workshop owners working on CAT C15-powered trucks will use this manual when the check engine lamp illuminates due to a 5 volt sensor supply fault and the ECM defaults pressure readings. The six-step procedure requires a multimeter and Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) software to isolate whether the fault lies in a sensor, harness wiring, or the ECM itself.
