SPN 4193 FMI 10 is the Detroit diesel fault code documented in this coolant temperature sensors not plausible troubleshooting guide for DD Series (EPA 2007-Current) engines. This 2-page PDF explains the monitored condition, the enabling parameters and the step-by-step checks a technician follows to confirm and repair the code. It is part of the Detroit DD Series diagnostic trouble code (DTC) library and follows the standard monitored-parameter, enabling-conditions and troubleshooting-step layout used across the Detroit fault-code set.

SPN 4193 FMI 10 troubleshooting steps
- Monitored parameter is the coolant inlet temperature sensor; enabling conditions are engine speed 500-2500 RPM, coolant temperature above 65°C, battery voltage of about 11 VDC and the engine running for more than 60 seconds.
- Check for and repair any cooling-system issues first.
- Bring the engine to operating temperature 185°F (85°C); if it does not reach it, replace the engine cooling-system thermostat.
- Disconnect the inlet and outlet coolant sensors and inspect the connectors for bent, spread or corroded pins.
- Measure coolant-sensor resistance against the chart and replace any sensor found out of range.
Applicable truck models and engines
This document applies to Detroit DD Series (EPA 2007-Current) engines and covers the plausibility comparison between the inlet and outlet coolant sensors. The procedure is published in Detroit Power Service Literature and drawn from the Detroit diesel fault-code set; always confirm the latest revision through the official Detroit engine support site.
Who needs this SPN 4193 FMI 10 manual
Fleet technicians and workshop owners use this guide to diagnose an implausible reading between the two coolant sensors instead of a single hard circuit failure. Reading the full procedure before touching the harness keeps the diagnosis on the documented path and avoids replacing good parts.
