Symptoms & remedies
| Symptom | Remedy |
|---|---|
| Engine stops cranking and fault lamp lights, after cranking approximately 75 seconds. | See engine service manual for troubleshooting fuel system. After correcting problem, reset engine monitor relay by placing Run-Stop/Reset-Remote switch to Stop/Reset position, then back to the required running position. |
| Fault lamp lights immediately after engine starts. | Check for: Overspeed condition as engine starts. |
| Fault lamp lights and engine shuts down after running for a period. | A. Oil level. Engine will shut down if sensor is closed. b. Check engine manual for troubleshooting oil system. c. High engine temperature. Check coolant level; check water flow (city water cooled systems); check radiator for free air flow, and fan belts for tightness. See engine manual for troubleshooting cooling system. d. Check for faulty oil pressure sensor or faulty high engine temperature sensor. |
| Engine runs, shuts down and cranks for 75-seconds. Cranking cycle stops; fault lamp lights. | Check fuel supply. |
| Fault lamp lights, no fault exists. | To check a no-fault condition, disconnect leads from TBl terminals 29, 30 and 31. If fault lamp lights with leads disconnected, replace engine monitor board. Reconnect leads. |
| Overcrank fault lamp lights and engine stops cranking after approximately 75-seconds. | See engine service manual for troubleshooting fuel system. After correcting fault, reset engine monitor relay by placing Run-Stop/Reset-Remote switch to Stop/Reset position, depressing Reset button, then to the required running position. |
| Engine runs, shuts down, cranks for 75-seconds, cranking cycle stops, overcrank light ON. | Check fuel supply. |
| Engine fails to start, or starts and runs then stops and fault lamp lights | Refer to appropriate troubleshooting chart, Table 3 or Table 4 |
