Symptoms & remedies

SymptomCauseRemedy
PRE HI ENGINE TEMP lamp lights. Engine continues to operate.Indicates engine has begun to overheat and engine temperature has risen to approximately 205° F (97° C).A. Reduce load if possible by turning off non-critical loads. b. Check air inlets and outlets and remove any obstructions to airflow. If engine can be stopped, follow procedure in step 3.
HI ENG TEMP lamp lights. Engine shuts down.Indicates engine has overheated (engine temperature has risen above 215° F/102° C) or coolant level is low (sets with coolant level sensor).A. Check coolant level and replenish if low. Look for possible coolant leakage points and repair if necessary. b. Check for obstructions to cooling airflow and correct as necessary. c. Check for a slipping fan belt and tighten if loose. d. Reset control and restart after locating and correcting problem. Contact an authorized service center if none of the above.
PRE LO OIL PRES lamp lights.
