Applicable truck models
This document applies to Caterpillar on-highway truck engines in the 3406E, C-10, and C-12 families, specifically configurations with serial number prefixes 8YS, 9NS, 5DS, or 1LW. The extract references the C-12 Truck Engine 9NS00001-UP configuration. The fault code triggers when the Engine Control Module (ECM) detects a vehicle speed signal exceeding 127.5 MPH for more than two seconds while the “VSL Protection” parameter is set below 2120 rpm. When active, the ECM sets vehicle speed to 0 km/h and limits engine speed to the programmed VSL Protection value. The Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) will display “DIAG” next to the vehicle speed status. For additional product support, visit Caterpillar official support.
