Answers for drivers and operators on International DTCs
Engine (SPN 110), emissions (SPN 4364), electrical (SPN 168), and transmission (SPN 191) codes account for 85% of faults. Learn more about their structure in our code structure guide.
Critical codes like SPN 110 FMI 15 (high coolant temp) need urgent attention to prevent shutdowns. See our critical vs noncritical guide for prioritization tips.
For noncritical codes, operators can apply temporary fixes like resetting systems. Critical codes require professional repairs; refer to our on-road triage guide.
J1939 scanners, International diagnostic software, or HVI’s platform are essential. Set up real-time monitoring with our datalogger guide.
Use HVI’s analytics to monitor first-time fix rates, repair times, and downtime reduction KPIs, enhanced by live alerts.
