MID refers to Module Identifier.
In modern Caterpillar machines, advanced Electronic Controls are used to detect and diagnose specific issues within components or systems.
The MID code, such as MID 116, identifies the exact control module—like the Integrated Brake Control—that has detected a fault.
This technology enhances the accuracy of troubleshooting by pinpointing the precise module, component, or failure mode involved, allowing for quicker and more effective repairs.
EID stands for Event Identifier.
EID codes serve a vital function in diagnosing and identifying specific events or conditions within a vehicle’s electronic control system.
These codes are key to pinpointing exact problems, making troubleshooting and repairs more efficient.
