| 1311 through 1318 | LAMP: Shutdown/Warning MESSAGE: Customer Defined Fault | When any one of these customer defined inputs is detected by the control, the corresponding fault message is displayed. The nature of the fault is an optional customer selection. These fault functions can be programmed to initiate a shutdown or warning as indicated by the Warning or Shutdown lamp. Note: Customer fault messages are editable. The message displayed for the code shown (1311 through 1318) is determined by the customer. |
| 135 | Oil pressure sensor | |
| 1416 | LAMP: Warning MESSAGE: FAIL TO SHUTDOWN | Status – indicates that the “Fault Bypass” mode is enabled. This mode is primarily used by service personnel for troubleshooting purposes. In this mode the generator set ignores the majority of system shutdown faults. |
| 1417 | LAMP: Warning MESSAGE: POWER DOWN ERROR | Indicates that the control can not power down due to some unknown condition. Possible drain on battery. Contact an authorized service center for service. |
| 143 | Low oil pressure | |
| 1433 / 1434 | LAMP: Shutdown MESSAGE: EMERGENCY STOP – LOCAL / EMERGENCY STOP – REMOTE | Indicates local or remote Emergency Stop. Emergency Stop shutdown status can be reset only at the local control panel. To reset the local/remote Emergency Stop button: Pull the button out. Move the O/Manual/Auto switch to O (off). Press the front panel Fault Acknowledge button. Select Manual or Auto, as required. |
| 1437 | FAULT HISTORY: 1 OF 24 | |
| 1438 | LAMP: Warning MESSAGE: FAIL TO CRANK | Indicates possible fault with control or starting system. Check for the following conditions: a. Poor battery cable connections. Clean the battery cable terminals and tighten all connections. b. Discharged or defective battery. Recharge or replace the battery. |
| 1439 | LAMP: Warning MESSAGE: FUEL LEVEL LOW IN DAY | Indicates fuel supply is running low. Check fuel supply and replenish as required. |
| 144 | Coolant temperature sensor | |
| 1441 | LAMP: Warning MESSAGE: FUEL LEVEL LOW IN MAIN | Indicates fuel supply is running low. Check fuel supply and replenish as required. |
| 1442 | LAMP: Warning MESSAGE: BATTERY IS WEAK | Indicates battery voltage drops below 14.4 volts for two seconds, during starting. Discharged or defective battery. See Warning message 441 Low Battery Voltage. |
| 1443 | LAMP: Warning MESSAGE: BATTERY IS DEAD | Indicates battery has dropped below genset operating range (3.5 volts when cranking) to power the starter and the control circuitry. See Warning message 441 Low Battery Voltage. |
| 146 | HIGH COOLANT TEMP WARNING | A. Reduce load if possible by turning off non-critical loads. b. Check air inlets and outlets and remove any obstructions to airflow. c. If engine can be stopped, follow 151 High Coolant Temp Alarm procedure. |
| 151 | HIGH COOLANT TEMP ALARM | A. Check jacket water coolant level and replenish if low. Look for coolant leakage and repair if necessary. b. Check for obstructions to cooling airflow and correct as necessary. c. Check fan belt and repair if necessary. d. Reset control and restart after locating and correcting problem. |
| 152 | Low coolant temp | |
| 153 | Manifold air temp sensor | |
| 197 | COOLANT LEVEL WARNING | A. Wait until next shutdown period, then follow 235 Coolant Level Alarm procedure. b. If engine can be stopped, follow 235 procedure. |
| 213 | Fault code is indicated by three sets of blinks separated by a two second pause | Use the Warning and Shutdown status indicators to read the fault code. The first set corresponds to the hundreds position, the second to the tens position and the third to the ones digit. |
| 213 | The Shutdown LED will blink the fault code as follows: blink-blink-pause-blink-pause-blink-blink-blink. The Warning LED will blink once (2 seconds) to indicate the start of a new code. | Press and release the Fault Acknowledge button less than one second to return to the most recent fault code. |
| 235 | COOLANT LEVEL ALARM | A. Check jacket water coolant level and replenish if low. Look for possible coolant leakage points and repair if necessary. b. Reset control and restart after locating and correcting problem. |
| 253 | OIL LEVEL ALARM | Check oil level, lines and filters. If oil system is OK but oil level is low, replenish. Reset control and restart. |
| 326 | OIL LEVEL WARNING | A. Wait until next shutdown period, then follow 688 High Oil Level Alarm procedure. b. If engine can be stopped, follow 688 procedure. |
| 359 | ENGINE FAILED TO START | A. Poor battery cable connections. Clean the battery cable terminals and tighten all connections. b. Discharged or defective battery. Recharge or replace the battery. |
| 441 | LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE | A. Discharged or defective battery. Check the battery charger fuse. Recharge or replace the battery. b. Poor battery cable connections. Clean the battery cable terminals and tighten all connections. c. Check engine DC alternator. Replace engine DC alternator if normal battery charging voltage (24 to 26 VDC) is not obtained. d. Check float level if applicable (raise float level). |
| 442 | HIGH BATTERY VOLTAGE | A. Check float level on battery charger if applicable (lower float level). b. Check engine DC alternator. Replace engine DC alternator if normal battery charging voltage (24 to 26 VDC) is not obtained. |
| 471 | LOW OIL LEVEL | A. Wait until next shutdown period, then follow 253 Oil Level Alarm procedure. b. If engine can be stopped, follow 253 procedure. |
| 611 | ENGINE HOT | This type of shutdown should be avoided. Can cause possible loss of performance and engine damage. |
| 688 | LAMP: Shutdown MESSAGE: HIGH OIL LEVEL ALARM | Indicates that the engine oil level has exceeded the alarm trip point for high oil level. Check oil level. Drain oil to operating level. |
| Symptom | Remedy |
|---|---|
| This red lamp flashes continuously when the 0/Manual/Auto switch is not in the Auto position. | Move the 0/Manual/Auto switch to the Auto position. |
| This red lamp is lit whenever the control detects a shutdown condition. The generator set cannot be started when this lamp is on. | Turn the 0/Manual/Auto switch to the 0 position and press the Fault Acknowledge button after correcting the condition. |
| Warning or Shutdown status indicator is lit | Press and hold the Fault Acknowledge button for one second or more |
