Code 12 display — No RPM reference pulse detected

¿Qué significa Code 12 ?

Code 12 means the engine control module (ECM) is not receiving a signal indicating the engine's rotational speed. This is often expected when the engine is not running, but if displayed during a test with the engine off, it indicates a problem.

• Engine is not running when it should be
• Problem with the crank sensor or its wiring
