Injector Trim Codes

HEUI-HI315B® Operation

The injector utilizes a two-wire, multiple

waveform electronic control strategy to
energize the solenoid and control the
injection cycle.

Injection can be tailored to provide:

Ramp Rate Shape Injection
Square Rate Shape Injection
Multiple “Split” Injections (Pilot Injection)

Delivery Tolerance (Trim Code)

Slight differences between

injectors have an effect on High
fuel delivery. Limit
Machining tolerances
Friction between parts
Magnetic forces

Target
Unique Trim Codes for
each injector tailor their
performance to more closely
match the target injector.

Why Trim Codes are Important

The trim code affects timing and

fuel delivery throughout the ECM
map.
To get the maximum benefit from
this type of injector, you MUST
upload the trim code file to the ECM
when you install the injector. Failure
to do so may result in poor engine
performance, rough idle, poor fuel
economy, increased emissions, and
could also result in engine damage.

Trim Code Installation

A disc containing the unique trim code file is

supplied with each injector.
In order to enter the trim code into the ECM
either of the following is required:
Delphi Trim Code Upload Software with
NEXIQ USB Link
or
Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET)
program with Communication Adapter 317-
7484
Failure to enter the correct trim code into
the ECM can affect engine performance and
emissions.
