Apple Hardware Test error 4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1211

Did extended hardware test......got this error 4MOT/4/4oooooo3:HDD-1211

Apple does not publish their error codes, however the HDD indicates it's a hard disk related error. It could be the drive, a fan sensor, a HD fan, etc... Before you do ANYTHING and I mean ANYTHING backup and then take the machine in for service immediately.

HT4543 Hi guys, I got this error code when I did my apple hardware test. 4MOT/2/40000004:HDD-1379 does anyone have an idea of what this could mean? Please Help .

You can buy and install the hard drive you want to. However, on Late 2009 and newer iMacs the temperature sensor is in the hard drive, so if you replace it with a hard drive that has not got a temperature sensor you will have serious fan problems.
You have got an Early 2009 iMac, so do not worry about this. You can buy a hard drive at OWC > http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/3.5-SerialATA/ Follow these steps > http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/iMac+Intel+24-Inch+EMC+2267+Hard+Drive+Replacement/9 028

Hardware test alert 4MOT/4/40000003: HDD-1337, Its critical?

Does anybody knows what means the hardware test alert 4MOT/4/40000003: HDD-1337?,
I guess that its something wrong in my HD, but the question is What?
I ran a hardware test just to see if there was something in my imac, and report this alert, I don't know what it means, but i want to be prepared in case to be a possible critical failure or something like that.
The computer is working fine, and without problems,
Imac 27" mid 2011, 16 bg ram, i5 2,7 Itb, yosemite 10.10.1 up-graded.
Thanks in advance.

Motor error for the HDD or the cooling fan. It should be taken care of quickly.

What means hardware test fault 4Mot/4/40000003:HDD-1255 ?

What means hardware test fault 4Mot/4/40000003:HDD-1255 ?
I´m searching for the reason of frequent freezing and finder freezing, freezing in Safari too, and got this result with extended Apple hardware test from CD.
Checking volume by Lion recovery tells: volume seems to be o.k.

Changing the 1TB Hitachi HDD (only 26 months old) resolved all my freezing problems. Now it works fine with a Mushkin SSD.

What is Hardward Test Error "4MOT/1/40000003: HDD-1330"

Recently, my daughter experienced massive Finder problems (continual spinning beachball with freezes, Force Quit unresponsive) on her iMac (Intel Dual Core 2008 Model). Eventually, she got nothing but a flashing question-mark on a restart.  
Before reinstalling system software, I ran an Apple Hardware Test and it reported "No Problems". Disk Utility reported "Volume OK". Archive and install failed twice. I was able to retrieve and copy her home folder slaving the sick iMac to my operating G5 using Target Disk Mode. Following that, I did a complete erase and install of the OS.
  However, AFTER reinstalling the OS, I ran Hardware Test again and it reported the following error "4MOT/1/40000003: HDD-1330". I suspect this may mean that her 1GB ram chip is going bad, but I am not sure. Does anyone know what this error means?

Thanks, Kappy. I may try finding a deal on an external HD for her for the time being and get her to back up what she has regularly using SuperDuper, then try replacing the internal HD myself when it gives out. (Who knows—it might keep running for quite a while in this state—I'm keeping my fingers crossed.) I'm pretty good at following instructions and may try doing the replacement myself when the time comes. At least that will allow us to save the important stuff and give us more time to save the money for the new HD purchase. No one fixes Macs around here, and I'd rather try installing the new HD myself than sending it back to Apple.

Error: 4MOT/4/40000003-HDD-1355

Please help, I have the following message when running the Apple Hardware Test:
Error 4MOT/4/40000003-HDD-1355 on the quick test,
the extended test was identical except for the last 4 digits which were 1362.
Previous posts seem to indicate it is the fan that cools the hard drive, the last four digits indicating the fan's speed.
Could it be the hard drive or the logic board?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Mike:
First, thanks for helping me. Second, I believe you are right and it is the hard drive. I had a white screen the other day. I shutdown using the power button. Later, more white screens combined with restarts. I downloaded Yosemite and that fixed the problem for about 48 hours. Then white screens again. At one point it was going from a white screen to restart over and over for about 7 minutes until it finally was able to get to the desktop. Sounds like a hard drive towards the end of its useful life. Will know for sure on Tuesday, and will post to let you know. Hope it isn't too expensive a repair. Thanks again, I really appreciate your help.

My Mac is doing strange things: delaying between users, mouse flickering and bouncing, gets stuck with rainbow wheel flickering. I ran the appel hardware test and it detected an error: 4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1233 Does anybody know what that means? HELP!

My imac is doing strange things:
-delaying between users: when closing session it goes to blue, then takes a while to appear users signin box, and then wont recognize mouse command to enter until a couple of minutes later... then everything seems alright until....
-it gets stuck between things, the rainbow wheel appears and its just delays there forever....
-and every now and then the mouse starts flickering and bouncing wildly onscreen.
I ran the appel hardware test and it detected an error:
4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1233
Does anybody know what that means? HELP!

WZZZ answered about where to get iStat. And do check the SMART status. If it is an overheating problem due to a fan or logic board problem, your hard drive is possibly cooking itself to death. If so it isn't a faulty hard drive even though the hard drive might fail. So assuming it's a temperature problem, even if you are able to repair things on the disk with software, that is working on symptoms, not causes. I could be wrong however.
RE: AppleCare: Your iMac came with one year of AppleCare (Apple's warranty program), but within the first year you can buy 2 more years. You have to extend by the one year anniversary of purchase of the computer. Your 10,1 is too old to still be in the first year, and since you asked what it was, I'm sure you don't have it. Bottom line meaning is that whatever this problem turns out to be, you'll have to pay for it. Unless there is something like this. It is for 2011 iMacs with certain Seagate drives. You can put in your serial number for fun, but it looks like yours is too old. Lastly, some people have had Apple help them anyway if it is just out of warranty, but many have not. Your machine is one of these. Type in 10,1 in the search box. Is there an Apple Store near you? Just b/c it's out of warranty doesn't mean you shouldn't have it looked at by Apple. But no one here can say at all what Apple will or will not do.
Hope you get it taken care of!

Hi guys,
I have a similar problem, the numbers at the end of the error code change a bit, when i do the apple hardware test again ( I have an imac of early 2008, 2,66 GH). I have 2 GB Ram now, after one week ago one of the 2GB-Ram sticks "died") In fact, it was working quite much, then suddenly (i bought imac in june 2009) the ram stick was broken. The apple-support center told me its probably not a problem, but did not tell me what the error code means. I have apple-care for 3 years, its a luck i did it, so they will take it and check carefully, but just after i insisted on the error. It seems they do not want to tell u what that could be....
Do u guys think the ram-stick was broken because the imac was too hot???

What are the meanings of Apple Hardware Test error codes 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1300 and 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1308?

what are the meanings of Apple Hardware Test error codes 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1300 and 4m0t/4/40000003:hdd-1308?

Thanks - Even though I'm years out of warranty I got chat help from Apple (I said they should help me since the codes aren't published.) We covered three different questions, and although I didn't get a specific decoding of the error code, I got confirmation of what other comments here imply - it might have helped that I indicated I'd already been here - and useful links to how to do back ups, including to CD(s). (I don't have a lot of data on this computer yet)
Now I need to figure out how to decide how hot-to-the-touch is "too hot" for the metal frame at the top of the iMac to decide whether I'm getting adequate fan performance or insufficient. While chatting I initially reported it was cool at the bottom and warm at the top. Apple hadn't asked, but their response prompted me to feel it again, and I'd say the top was hot, not warm - I updated but Apple didn't comment further except to conclude after addressing the other questions that I should take it in for further assessment - don't really want to bother with that.

Can anyone tell me what apple hardware test error code apple hardware 4MOT/4/40000002: Exhaust-1153 or 1209 means? I am running a MacBook Pro.

Error 4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1267

Hi, with the test hardware on my iMac 27 mid-2010 I get the error:
4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1267
What is this?
I live in Ticino Switzerland and I don't know what I have to do and where I have to bring mi iMac if it has an hardware problem.

I tried an advanced test and I get a different error:
4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1269
Different only for the 9 at the end.
It's this another error?
I retried also the fast test and get this:
4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1267
Why there is an erorr in the fast test and another one in the advanced test of the hardware?
Do you know any apple store in Ticino Switzerland?

I had run the hardware test, and it reports an error: 4MOT/1/40000003:HDD-1344

Hi there, anyone know whats the error code means?
4MOT/1/40000003:HDD-1344
I have my iMac 27" for 14 months, and it just passed the warranty ...
Is it the hard drive problem or other?
Thanks

That is the Hard Drive cooling fan.

Anyone Know what this apple hardware test error means?

Hi I've been experiencing some problems with my mac it gets to hot fans nerver go up not even with smc fan control installed and some times it freezes so i decided to run the apple hardware test that comes with the machine and during the memory part it showed me this error code
4MOT/1/40000003:HDD
Does any one know what this means or have any idea with what part of the machine it can be related to
Thanks hope sombody answers

If I had a hardware error detected by Apple Hardware Test (which in my experience misses the minor things) then I would be raising a case with AppleCare right away.

You shouldn't have to deal with hardware failures on a Mac this young.
