Volvo Penta 16 liter Engine

How to read your Volvo Penta engine serial & model number →

• Water in Fuel (Code 2.1, PID/SPN 97) 2.1, PID/SPN 97
  Fix: * Empty the primary fuel filter indicator for Water in Fuel (Code 2.9, PID/SPN 97)
• Too low coolant temperature 20
• Too high exhaust temperature (only TWD1643GE) 13, 17, 18, 19, 21, 25, 27, 28, 29, 30
• Tao low lubrication cil pressure 16
• Preheating Relay (Code 5.4, PID 45/SPN 626) 5.4, PID 45/SPN 626
  Cause: Short circuit to positive (+) or +. Preheating can not be activated. earth (ground) (-). Open circuit. - Preheating is constantly connected.
  Fix: * Check that the relay input cable is not damaged. * Check relay function.
• Oil Pressure Sensor (Code 3.1, PID/SPN 100) 3.1, PID/SPN 100
  Fix: * Check that the oil pressure sensor cable is not damaged * Check that the oil pressure sensor is correctly connected * Check oil pressure sensor function
• Oil Pressure (Code 6.6, PID/SPN 100) 6.6, PID/SPN 100
  Cause: * Oil pressure is too low
  Fix: * Check oil level * Check that the air filter is not blocked * Check system pressure valves and safety valves in the oil system * Check oil pressure sensor function
• Oil Level Sensor (Code 5.9; PID/SPN 98) 5.9; PID/SPN 98
  Fix: * Check that the cable harness to the oil level sensor has not been damaged * Check the oil level sensor function
• Oil Level (Code 5.7, PID/SPN 98) 5.7, PID/SPN 98
  Cause: * Oil level to low
  Fix: * Check the oil level
• No, or poor charge 2, 23
• Fuel Pressure Sensor (Code 3.6, PID/SPN 94) 3.6, PID/SPN 94
  Fix: * Check that the fuel pressure sensor connector is correctly installed. * Check that the fuel pressure sensor cable is not damaged. * Check that the fuel pressure sensor is correctly installed. * Check fuel pressure sensor-function.
• Fuel Pressure (Code 3.8, PID/SPN 94) 3.8, PID/SPN 94
  Cause: * Low supply pressure
  Fix: * Check if it is possible to build up pressure with the hand pump * Check the fuel filter * Check the fuel pre-filter
• Excessive coolant temperature 17, 18, 19, 20, 28
• Boost Temperature Sensor (Code 3.2, PID/SPN 105) 3.2, PID/SPN 105
  Fix: * Check that the boost temperature sensor connector is correctly installed * Check that the boost temperature sensor cable is not damaged * Check that the boost temperature sensor is correctly installed * Check boost temperature sensor function
• Boost Temperature (Code 6.2, PID/SPN 105) 6.2, PID/SPN 105
  Cause: * Boost temperature is too high
  Fix: * Check the coolant level * Check the charge air cooler (cleanliness) * Check boost temperature sensor function * Check the function of the thermostat
