Caterpillar engines have built-in diagnostics to assure all components are functioning and operating properly. In the event of a system problem, the operator will be alerted to the condition by the dashboard-mounted check engine/diagnostic lamp. A Caterpillar service tool or the cruise control switches may be used to read the numerical code of the diagnostic flash code.
