Troubleshooting
14Symptoms & remedies
| Symptom | Remedy |
|---|---|
| Fault lamp lights and engine stops cranking after approximately 75 seconds. | See engine service manual for troubleshooting fuel system, ignition system, etc. After correcting problem, reset the engine monitor by holding run-stop-remote switch in stop position, and depressing reset switch. Release and return to run position. |
| Fault lamp lights immediately after engine starts. | Check for: a. overspeed condition as engine starts. b. high temperature condition'. c. faulty high engine temperature sensor or overspeed switch. d. faulty starter disconnect. |
| Fault lamp lights after engine is running. | Check the following: a. Oil level-engine will shut down after approximately 12-1/2 seconds if low oil pressure sensor does not open. b. Oil pressure sensor may be defective. c. High engine temperature - See engine service manual. d. Faulty high engine temperature sensor. e. Faulty starter disconnect. |
| Fault lamp lights - no fault condition exists. | Be certain that no fault condition exists. Disconnect lead 30 and 31 from T B I l inside control box (refer to wiring diagram). If fault lamp still lights with leads disconnected, remove and replace engine monitor plug-in printed circuit board. |
| Overcrank fault lamp lights and engine stops cranking after approximately 75 seconds. | See engine service manual for troubleshooting fuel system, ignition system, etc..After correcting problem, reset the engine monitor by moving run-stop-remote switch to stop position, and depressing reset switch. PENN STATE. Move and hold run-stop-remote switch to OFF. Press reset, release and move switch to ON. |
| Overcrank fault lamp lights after engine has run for approximately 75 seconds. | Replace start-disconnect circuit board. |
| High engine temperature lamp lights as soon as engine starts. | Check for defective sensor or high temperature condition. |
| Low oil pressure lamp lights after engine is running. | Check: a. Oil level - engine will shut down after approximately 12-1/2 seconds if oil pressure is low. |
| High engine temperature lamp lights after engine is running. | Check for: a. High temperature condition. See Engine service manual. b. Defective high engine temperature sensor. |
| Overspeed lamp lights - no fault condition exists. | Replace overspeed circuit board. |
| Low oil pressure fault lamp lights - no fault condition exists. | Be certain that no fault condition exists. Disconnect lead 30 from T B I l inside control box (refer to wiring diagram). If low oil pressure lamp still lights, remove and replace engine monitor plug-in printed circuit board. |
| High engine temperature fault lamp lights - no fault condition exists. | Be certain that no fault condition exists. Remove lead 31 from TB11 inside control box (refer to wiring diagram). If high engine temperature lamp still lights, remove and replace engine monitor plug-in printed circuit board. |
| When pressing test lamp.button - one or more fault lamps do not light. | Fault lamp/lamps burned, out - replace. |
| Non-Start | If after a few seconds of cranking engine fails to start, or starts and runs then stops and fault lamp lights, refer to appropriate troubleshooting chart, Table 3 or Table 4. |
