SANY Excavator Common Fault Codes and Solutions

By /

When a SANY excavator throws a fault code on the display, every minute counts. A machine sitting idle on a construction site costs $150–$400 per hour in lost productivity — and in remote mining or infrastructure projects across Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, getting a technician to the site can take days.

This guide provides a practical, code-by-code reference for the most common SANY excavator fault codes — organized by system, with real diagnostic steps and solutions. It is built for fleet managers, site mechanics, and anyone who needs to get a SANY machine back to work without waiting for dealer support.

You will find: engine P-codes (fuel, sensors, ECU), hydraulic H-codes (pump pressure, pilot signals, proportional valves), electrical E-codes (CAN bus, controllers, sensors), and mode-specific troubleshooting that maps symptoms to root causes. Every code includes the part numbers most likely needed for the repair — because diagnosing the problem is only half the battle.

How SANY Fault Codes Work

SANY excavators use a three-prefix diagnostic system displayed on the onboard monitor. Each prefix identifies the system, and the number identifies the specific fault:

Prefix System Typical Faults Models
P Engine & ECU Fuel pressure, sensors, injectors, EGR, DPF, ECU power All models (SY195/205/215/225/235/335/485)
H Hydraulic System Pump pressure, pilot pressure, proportional valves, oil temperature All models
E Electrical & Controller CAN bus, controller, sensors, throttle motor, display All models
E-X / H-X Mode Troubleshooting Symptom-based guided diagnostics (engine won't start, arm slow, etc.) SY195/205/215/225C9 and newer
💡 Reading Codes on the Display On most SANY models, press and hold the "Menu" button on the right-side control panel for 3 seconds, then navigate to "Diagnostics" or "Fault History". Active codes appear with a red warning icon; stored (historical) codes appear in grey. Write down the exact code before clearing — the number after the prefix is critical for matching parts.

Engine System Fault Codes (P-Codes)

Engine fault codes are the most common on SANY excavators and also the most expensive to ignore. A P025 (low rail pressure) that is left unchecked for a week can destroy a high-pressure pump — turning a $200 filter replacement into a $3,000+ pump rebuild.

Critical Engine Faults — Stop Immediately

ENGINE STOP NOW P003 Rail Pressure Too High
Symptom: Engine may surge or go into limp mode. Fuel smell from exhaust.
Cause: Faulty rail pressure sensor (over-reporting), stuck pressure limiter valve on the rail, or SCV (suction control valve) stuck open.
Solution: (1) Check actual rail pressure with a diagnostic tool — compare sensor reading to mechanical gauge. (2) If sensor is faulty, replace rail pressure sensor (common across all SANY common-rail engines). (3) If pressure is genuinely high, inspect the pressure limiter valve and SCV — replace both as a set. Do not run the engine if rail pressure exceeds 180 MPa; the high-pressure pump can fail catastrophically.
ENGINE STOP NOW P013 / P101 Engine Oil Pressure Too Low
Symptom: Red oil pressure warning on display, engine knocking sound.
Cause: Low oil level, failed oil pump, clogged oil pickup screen, or faulty oil pressure sensor.
Solution: (1) Stop engine immediately. (2) Check oil level on dipstick — top up if low. (3) If oil level is normal, replace the oil pressure sensor first (sensor failure is more common than pump failure). (4) If code persists after sensor replacement, inspect the oil pump and oil pickup tube/strainer. Running the engine with low oil pressure for more than 2 minutes can cause bearing seizure.
ENGINE STOP NOW P088 / P102 Engine Overspeed / Runaway
Symptom: Engine revs uncontrollably, cannot be shut down with key.
Cause: Turbocharger oil seal failure (oil enters intake), stuck injector rack, or governor failure.
Solution: (1) Immediately block the air intake with a solid object (plywood, metal plate) to starve the engine of air. Do NOT use your hand. (2) Once stopped, inspect the turbocharger for oil leakage at the compressor side. (3) Check the fuel injection pump governor for sticking. Turbo oil seal failure is the most common cause on high-hour SANY machines.

Fuel System Faults

ENGINE WARNING P025 Rail Pressure Too Low
Symptom: Low power, hard starting, engine stalls under load, black smoke.
Cause: Clogged fuel filter, air in fuel lines, weak high-pressure pump, leaking injector return line, or faulty SCV (suction control valve).
Solution: (1) Replace the fuel filter and fuel pre-filter/water separator first — this resolves 60% of P025 codes. (2) If problem persists, check for air bubbles in the clear fuel line between the filter and pump. (3) Test the SCV (fuel metering valve) — if coil resistance is out of spec (typically 2–4 ohms), replace it. (4) If all above is good, the high-pressure pump may need rebuild.
ENGINE WARNING P191 / P192 Water in Fuel / Fuel Filter Clogged
Symptom: Engine surging at idle, warning light on display, loss of power at high RPM.
Cause: Water contamination in fuel, fuel filter past service interval, or poor-quality diesel.
Solution: (1) Drain water from the water separator immediately. (2) Replace the fuel filter and pre-filter. (3) Drain and inspect fuel tank for water accumulation. (4) In humid/coastal environments, install an additional fuel water separator with higher capacity. (5) Use OEM or Fleetguard filters — generic filters often fail to separate water effectively.
ENGINE WARNING P008 Injector QR Code / IQA Code Mismatch
Symptom: Rough idle, uneven power delivery, engine may run but with reduced performance.
Cause: Injector was replaced without programming the new IQA (Injector Quantity Adjustment) code into the ECU. Each injector has a unique QR-code printed on top that must be entered into the ECU for correct fuel calibration.
Solution: (1) Use a SANY diagnostic tool or Jaltest to read the current stored IQA codes. (2) Locate the QR code on the injector body (alphanumeric, typically 16–24 characters). (3) Enter the code into the ECU using the diagnostic software under "Injector Programming." (4) If the code cannot be read (worn off), the injector must be replaced — running with mismatched IQA codes causes uneven cylinder loading and accelerated wear.

Sensor & ECU Faults

Code Fault Symptoms Most Likely Fix
P001 Camshaft sensor — no signal Hard starting, rough running, may not start at all Replace camshaft position sensor; check wiring for breaks near the connector
P020 / P021 Crankshaft sensor — no signal / wrong pulse count Engine cranks but won't start, or stalls abruptly Replace crankshaft position sensor; check sensor gap (0.5–1.5 mm from flywheel teeth)
P009 / P301 Coolant overheat Temperature gauge in red zone, power reduction Check coolant level, inspect thermostat and radiator cap; replace coolant temperature sensor if gauge reading is erratic
P005 / P033 Boost pressure sensor fault Black smoke under load, low power, turbo not spooling Replace boost pressure sensor on intake manifold; check rubber hose to sensor for cracks/leaks
P100 / P101 ECU power — voltage too high / too low Multiple random fault codes, engine may not start Check battery voltage (12.4–12.8V engine off, 13.8–14.4V running). Replace alternator if voltage is out of range; clean all ECU ground connections
P031 / P032 Main relay — stuck closed / open Engine won't shut down (P031) or won't start (P032) Replace ECU main relay (located in the fuse box behind the cab)
P100–P103 Sensor 5V supply voltage error Multiple sensors reporting errors simultaneously Check the ECU 5V output; inspect wiring harness for shorts — common failure point is where the harness passes through the cab firewall
⚠️ Wiring Harness Tip On SANY excavators with 6,000+ hours, a common failure is the main engine wiring harness chafing against the engine block near the fuel filter bracket. Before replacing any sensor, inspect the harness in this area — the vibration can wear through the insulation and cause intermittent shorts that produce random, confusing fault codes.

Hydraulic System Fault Codes (H-Codes)

Hydraulic codes on SANY excavators are especially important because they often point to progressive failures — a H014 (low oil level) today becomes a H010 (overheat) tomorrow, and a destroyed pump next week. Hydraulic pumps for SANY machines (typically Kawasaki K5V or Rexroth A8VO series) cost $8,000–$15,000 to replace.

Pump & Pressure Faults

HYDRAULIC STOP NOW H011 / H012 Front / Rear Pump Pressure Abnormal
Symptom: All functions slow on one side (front pump = right travel, boom, bucket; rear pump = left travel, arm, swing). Machine may pull to one side when traveling.
Cause: Faulty pump pressure sensor, failed pump regulator, worn pump rotating group, or clogged suction strainer.
Solution: (1) Verify first with a mechanical gauge at the pump test port — do not replace parts based on the code alone. (2) If mechanical pressure is normal, replace the pump pressure sensor (part varies by model; common replacement on SY215 is the Kawasaki sensor). (3) If mechanical pressure is low, inspect the pump regulator and proportional valve on the pump (H015/H016 often appear together). (4) If pump makes grinding noise, stop immediately — metal contamination in the hydraulic system requires a complete flush and filter replacement.
HYDRAULIC WARNING H015 / H016 Front / Rear Pump Proportional Valve Current Abnormal
Symptom: Sluggish response, engine lugs under load, pump does not de-stroke at idle.
Cause: Faulty proportional solenoid on the pump, broken wiring, or controller output failure.
Solution: (1) Measure the coil resistance at the proportional valve connector — typical range is 10–30 ohms; open circuit means the coil is burnt. (2) If resistance is good, check for 24V signal from the controller while operating the machine. (3) Replace the proportional solenoid valve if coil is out of spec or if the spool is sticking. (4) If both pump valves fail simultaneously, suspect a controller output failure — not a valve problem.

Pilot Pressure & Motion Faults

Code Fault Consequence Most Likely Fix
H001–H006 Bucket / Boom pilot pressure abnormal Specific function slow or unresponsive Check the corresponding pilot pressure sensor on the pilot manifold; clean or replace the sensor; verify 5V reference voltage
H007 / H008 Left / Right travel pilot pressure abnormal Machine pulls to one side, slow travel Replace the travel pilot pressure sensor; also check the travel lever potentiometer — they wear out on high-hour machines
H009 Swing pilot pressure abnormal Swing slow or jerky Check swing pilot pressure sensor; inspect swing brake release pressure — if brake doesn't fully release, swing will be slow
H010 Hydraulic oil temperature too high System derates, seals degrade, oil oxidizes Check oil level first; clean the hydraulic oil cooler (external fins clogged with dust is the #1 cause); replace hydraulic oil temperature sensor if reading is erratic
H013 Hydraulic oil temperature sensor abnormal False overheat warnings or no overheat protection Replace hydraulic oil temperature sensor (located on the hydraulic tank); test by comparing to an infrared thermometer reading on the tank surface
H014 Hydraulic oil level too low Pump cavitation, aeration, erratic operation Top up hydraulic oil to correct level; inspect all cylinders and hoses for external leaks; use ISO 46 or ISO 68 hydraulic oil depending on climate

Proportional Valve & Solenoid Faults

HYDRAULIC INFO H019 / H024 / H025 Travel Speed Solenoid — Current Abnormal / Over-Current / Under-Current
Symptom: Cannot switch to high-speed travel. Machine stays in low speed (turtle mode).
Cause: Faulty 2-speed travel solenoid valve, broken wire to the solenoid, or controller output failure.
Solution: (1) Check for 24V at the solenoid connector when high speed is selected. (2) Measure coil resistance — if open or shorted, replace the 2-speed travel solenoid. (3) Check the travel speed switch in the cab — the rocker switch itself can fail. (4) On some models, the solenoid is integrated into the travel motor — in that case, replace the travel motor solenoid assembly.
Code(s) Valve Affected Symptom Common Fix
H033 Swing priority valve Swing slow during combined operations Replace swing priority proportional valve
H036 Bucket confluence valve Bucket weak, slow, won't reach full speed Replace bucket confluence solenoid valve
H017 / H018 Boom priority 1 & 2 valves Boom slow to raise, priority logic not working Replace boom priority solenoid valves; check hydraulic pilot pressure at the valve block
H076 Boom regeneration valve Boom drops too fast, cavitation noise Replace boom regeneration valve; also inspect the boom cylinder seals for internal leakage
H077 Boom return oil valve Boom down slow, jerky lowering Replace boom return valve; check return filter for contamination
H078 Travel line valve Travel function erratic or one-sided Replace travel line valve; inspect travel motor case drain filter

Common Hydraulic Symptom-to-Code Mapping

Symptom Likely Codes First Check
Machine tracks to one side (travel deviation) H007, H008, H-14 Measure left vs right travel pressure; inspect travel motor case drain flow
All functions slow H011, H012, H015, H016, H-1 Check pilot pressure at the pilot manifold (should be 35–40 bar)
Boom drops when stopped H-10, H-11 Check boom cylinder seals and holding valve on the control valve
Swing jerky or won't hold position H-19, H-22, H-24 Check swing brake release pressure and swing motor make-up valves
Hydraulic oil smells burnt, dark color H010, H011, H012 Replace hydraulic oil immediately; flush system; find the overheating source
💡 Pro Mechanic Tip If you see multiple H-codes for proportional valves appearing simultaneously (e.g., H015 + H033 + H036), the problem is almost never all those valves at once. Instead, check the common 24V power supply to the valve block and the controller ground connection. One loose ground wire can trigger 5–6 separate valve fault codes.

Electrical & Controller Fault Codes (E-Codes)

Electrical fault codes on SANY excavators range from simple (blown fuse) to complex (CAN bus failure). The E-code system also includes mode-based troubleshooting codes (E-1 through E-25) that help mechanics trace symptoms to root causes.

Critical Controller & Communication Faults

ELECTRICAL STOP NOW E003 CAN Bus Communication Error
Symptom: Multiple warning lights, display shows random data or goes blank, machine may be inoperable.
Cause: Broken or shorted CAN bus wiring, failed CAN terminator resistor, or failed controller.
Solution: (1) Check the CAN bus terminating resistors — there should be 60 ohms across CAN-H and CAN-L (two 120-ohm resistors in parallel, one at each end of the bus). If reading is 120 ohms, one terminator is missing. (2) Inspect the CAN wiring harness where it passes near hydraulic lines — hydraulic oil leaks can degrade the wire insulation. (3) If the CAN bus has a short, disconnect controllers one at a time to isolate the failed node. The display unit and ECU are the most common failure points.
ELECTRICAL STOP NOW E006 / E111 Controller Failure / Controller Memory Fault
Symptom: Machine powers up but all functions are slow or inoperative (E111 forces speed reduction). Display may show garbled data.
Cause: Internal controller fault, corrupted memory, water ingress, or voltage spike damage.
Solution: (1) Cycle power — disconnect battery for 5 minutes and reconnect. (2) Check the controller housing for water ingress (look for moisture, corrosion, or white residue on connectors). (3) If water is present, dry thoroughly and apply dielectric grease to all connections. (4) If code persists after power cycle and drying, the main controller must be replaced and programmed with the correct machine configuration. This is not a field-repairable item.

Throttle & Display Faults

ELECTRICAL WARNING E213 / E214 Throttle Motor — Abnormal Operation / Range Error
Symptom: Engine won't accelerate, stays at idle, or throttle is jerky. E214 forces engine back to idle.
Cause: Faulty throttle motor, broken wiring at the motor connector, or faulty position sensor inside the motor.
Solution: (1) Check the throttle motor position sensor voltage — should be 0.8V at idle and 4.2V at full throttle, with smooth transition. (2) Inspect the wiring where it flexes at the engine — cracked insulation here is common. (3) If position sensor is erratic, replace the throttle motor assembly (motor and position sensor come as one unit). (4) After replacement, perform the throttle calibration procedure using the diagnostic software.
ELECTRICAL INFO E005 / E118 Display Communication Error
Symptom: Display shows no data or incomplete data. Machine may still operate from memory.
Cause: Loose display connector, damaged CAN wiring between display and controller, or display unit internal fault.
Solution: (1) Reseat the display connector at the back of the monitor. (2) Check the CAN wiring between the display and the controller for breaks or shorts. (3) If connections are good, the display unit itself may need replacement — but this is rare; communication wiring issues are the cause 80% of the time.

Common Electrical Codes — Quick Reference

Code Fault Symptom Most Likely Fix
E001 Supply voltage too low Slow cranking, display flickers Charge or replace battery; check alternator output
E002 Supply voltage too high Overheating electronics, blown fuses Replace voltage regulator / alternator
E004 Fuel control dial abnormal Engine won't respond to throttle dial Replace throttle potentiometer (fuel control dial)
E007 Controller temperature abnormal System may derate, warning only Clean controller ventilation; check cab air conditioning; ensure controller not covered with debris
E008 Sensor power supply abnormal Multiple sensor faults appearing simultaneously Check sensor 5V/24V supply; inspect wiring harness for shorts
E015 Power voltage abnormal (over 36V) System shuts down motors and solenoids Check alternator output immediately — overvoltage can destroy the ECU
E320 / E321 Front / Rear pump output pressure sensor feedback abnormal Machine slow, pump control erratic Replace the affected pump pressure sensor
E541 Engine speed abnormal (below 100 RPM) Engine stalls, won't idle Replace crankshaft speed sensor; check sensor gap and wiring

Mode-Based Troubleshooting (E-Mode Faults)

SANY's mode-based troubleshooting (E-1 through E-25) maps specific symptoms to diagnostic paths. These appear on the display when the machine's self-diagnostics detect abnormal operation patterns:

Mode Code Symptom Diagnostic Path
E-1 Engine won't start Battery voltage → starter relay → starter motor → shutdown solenoid → F1 fuse
E-2 Engine runs rough / unstable Sensor wiring → sensor internal fault → ground short → controller fault
E-3 Engine won't shut down Battery relay welded → surge diode shorted
E-6 Machine starts but no functions work Safety lock switch → lock solenoid → wiring to lock valve
E-7 / E-8 Boom slow or weak Boom pilot pressure sensor → control valve spool → cylinder seal
E-10 Travel slow or weak Travel pilot sensors → travel motor → final drive
E-13 Cannot switch to high speed travel 2-speed solenoid coil → wiring → travel motor shift mechanism
E-15 Fuel gauge inaccurate Fuel level sensor → wiring → gauge calibration

Diagnostic Tools Worth Having

For fleet managers and site mechanics who maintain multiple SANY machines, the right diagnostic tools turn a day of guesswork into a 30-minute repair. Here is what professionals use:

Tool What It Does When It Pays for Itself
SANY Diagnostic Software + Adapter Reads and clears all SANY-specific fault codes, programs injector IQA codes, performs throttle calibration, monitors live data After 1 avoided dealer service call ($500–800 minimum)
Jaltest / Texa Diagnostic Kit Multi-brand diagnostic tool with hydraulic pressure graphing, DPF regeneration, and injector testing After 2–3 avoided service calls on mixed-brand fleets
Mechanical Pressure Test Kit (0–600 bar) Verifies actual hydraulic pressure at test ports — the only way to confirm whether a "pressure sensor fault" is a sensor problem or a real pump problem First time it prevents an unnecessary $8,000+ pump replacement
Digital Multimeter with Duty Cycle Tests sensor voltages, solenoid resistances, wiring continuity, and PWM signals to proportional valves Essential from day one — resolves 40% of electrical fault codes
Infrared Thermometer Verifies temperature sensor readings non-invasively; identifies hot spots on hydraulic components Cheap insurance; identifies overheating before codes appear

Preventive Maintenance to Reduce Fault Codes

The best fault code is the one you never see. These preventive measures are specific to SANY excavator failure patterns observed across thousands of machines in Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia:

Daily (Operator)

  • Check engine oil level and color
  • Check hydraulic oil level in sight glass
  • Drain water from fuel/water separator
  • Inspect all hydraulic hoses for wet spots
  • Check for new fault codes on display
  • Listen for unusual pump or engine noises

Every 250 Hours

  • Replace engine oil and filter (use CF-4 15W-40)
  • Replace fuel filter and pre-filter
  • Clean air filter (replace every 500 hrs)
  • Grease all pins, bushings, and swing bearing
  • Inspect bucket teeth and cutting edges
  • Check fan belt and alternator belt tension

Every 500 Hours

  • Replace hydraulic oil return filter
  • Replace pilot oil filter
  • Take hydraulic oil sample for analysis
  • Check all electrical connectors for corrosion
  • Test all safety switches and lock systems
  • Inspect wiring harness for chafing points

Every 1,000 Hours

  • Replace hydraulic oil (extend to 2,000 hrs with oil analysis)
  • Replace hydraulic tank breather
  • Clean hydraulic oil cooler externally
  • Perform injector leak-back test
  • Check turbocharger shaft play
  • Calibrate all pressure sensors
⚠️ The Filter Rule In dusty environments (quarries, mines, desert construction), cut all filter replacement intervals in half. A clogged hydraulic return filter is the #1 cause of pump cavitation codes (H011/H012) on SANY machines working in these conditions. A $40 filter replaced on schedule prevents an $8,000 pump rebuild.

Quality Tiers for Replacement Parts

When a fault code tells you what to replace, the next question is always: what quality part do I buy? Here is how the replacement part market breaks down for SANY excavator components:

Genuine

SANY OEM Parts — Original equipment from SANY or their approved suppliers (Kawasaki, Rexroth, Cummins, etc.)

Best for: ECU, controllers, fuel injection components, pump rotating groups, and any sensor that directly feeds the ECU. Always use genuine for injectors — aftermarket injectors on SANY common-rail engines have a 40%+ early failure rate.

OEM-Grade

Same-Factory, Non-Branded — Made by the same manufacturers who supply SANY's production line, but without the SANY logo markup. 30–50% cheaper than genuine.

Best for: Hydraulic pump solenoids, pressure sensors, proportional valves, and mechanical components (bushings, pins, seals). Archer Parts sources these directly from the Kawasaki-approved supply chain.

Aftermarket

Cost-Effective Replacement — Third-party manufactured parts. Quality varies dramatically by supplier. Suitable for non-safety, non-precision components.

Best for: Filters, belts, hoses, bucket teeth, rubber tracks, cabin parts, lights, and wear items. Never use aftermarket for rail pressure sensors, ECU components, or injectors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. My SANY excavator shows 5 fault codes at once — where do I start?

Start with the lowest-numbered code in the P (engine) prefix, then move to E (electrical), then H (hydraulic). For example, if you see P025 + H015 + E008, fix P025 first — many hydraulic and electrical codes are triggered as downstream effects of an engine fault. Specifically: always fix ECU power and sensor supply voltage faults (E001/E002/P100–P103) before anything else, because unstable power causes random fault codes across all systems.

Q2. Can I clear fault codes and keep working if the machine seems to run fine?

It depends on the code severity. Informational codes (E007 controller temperature, E118 display communication) can often be cleared and monitored. Warning codes (H010 overheat, P025 low rail pressure, E213 throttle abnormal) should be investigated within the same shift — they indicate a developing problem that will worsen. Critical codes (P003 high rail pressure, P013 low oil pressure, E111 controller memory fault, P088 overspeed) require immediate shutdown. Never clear a critical code and continue working — doing so can turn a sensor replacement into a complete engine or pump rebuild.

Q3. What's the difference between an active code and a stored (historical) code?

An active code (red icon on display) means the fault condition is currently present and the ECU has taken protective action (derating, limp mode, or shutdown). A stored/historical code (grey icon) means the fault occurred in the past and is no longer active, but the ECU keeps a record for diagnostics. Stored codes are useful for tracking intermittent problems — if the same stored code keeps reappearing after being cleared, you have an intermittent fault that needs investigation (usually a wiring problem, loose connector, or sensor that fails when hot).

Q4. How do I know if a pressure sensor is actually faulty, or if the pressure is really abnormal?

Always verify with a mechanical gauge. Install a pressure gauge at the test port for the system that is showing the fault, and compare the gauge reading to the sensor reading on the diagnostic tool. If they match, the sensor is correct and you have a real system fault. If they differ by more than 5%, replace the sensor. Sensor failure is common on high-hour machines — the sensing element drifts over time. On SANY excavators, the pump pressure sensors and rail pressure sensor are the most commonly misdiagnosed.

Q5. My SANY SY215 shows H-14 (travel deviation) — do I need a new travel motor?

Not necessarily. Travel deviation on SANY excavators has multiple possible causes, and replacing the travel motor should be the last resort. Check in this order: (1) Track tension — a loose track on one side will cause deviation. (2) Pilot pressure sensors (H007/H008) — if one side reads lower, the controller sends less flow to that motor. (3) Swivel joint (center rotary joint) — internal leakage in the swivel joint can steal flow from one travel circuit. (4) Travel motor case drain flow — measure the case drain flow from each motor at full speed; if one side is significantly higher, that motor has internal leakage. Only at step 4 would you consider replacing or rebuilding the motor.

Q6. Do SANY fault codes apply to all models, or are there model-specific differences?

The P, H, and E code prefixes are standardized across all SANY excavator models from SY135 through SY485, and also apply to SANY wheel loaders and some crane models. However, the exact part number for the replacement component varies by model and production year. For example, a "front pump pressure sensor" on an SY215C9 is a different part than on an SY215C10. Always provide your full model designation and serial number (VIN) when ordering parts based on a fault code — Archer Parts cross-references the exact part number against your machine's build configuration.
