Inside the Eaton Fault Code 25

  • Record fault codes, FMIs, occurrences and timestamps
  • Note on the TECU self-check (key-clicks method)
  • Normal condition — no failed circuits or components
  • If codes are present in ServiceRanger, use the Diagnostic Procedure
  • Purpose A: check for active or inactive fault codes

The single step reminds the technician to first record every transmission code, FMI, occurrence and timestamp from the Service Activity Report created during the Diagnostic Procedure. Its key note is that this code is a normal TECU self-check that appears only when codes are retrieved by the key-clicks method and when nothing else has been logged, meaning there are no failed circuits or components. If any codes are present in ServiceRanger, the reader is sent to the page-11 Diagnostic Procedure to match transmission codes to vehicle symptoms; if none are present, the test is complete. This short reference prevents unnecessary parts replacement when the only code shown is the self-check itself, which is easy to misread as a genuine fault.

Applicable truck models

The step applies to the Fuller Advantage Heavy Duty and Fuller Advantage transmissions using the Transmission Electronic Control Unit and the Service Activity Report generated during the Diagnostic Procedure. Verify coverage against your VIN and build sheet on the Eaton Roadranger support.
