Welding Precaution

Correct welding procedures are necessary in order toavoid damage to the following components:

• Electronic Control Module (ECM) on the engine

• Clean Emissions Module (CEM)

• Sensors

• Associated components

Components for the driven equipment should also beconsidered. When possible, remove the componentthat requires welding. When welding on an enginethat is equipped with an ECM and removal of thecomponent is not possible, the following proceduremust be followed. This procedure minimizes the riskto the electronic components.

1. Stop the engine. Remove the electrical powerfrom the ECM.

2. Ensure that the fuel supply to the engine is turnedoff.

3. Disconnect the negative battery cable from thebattery. If a battery disconnect switch is installed,open the switch.

4. Disconnect all electronic components fromthe wiring harnesses. Include the followingcomponents:

• Electronic components for the driven equipment

• ECM

• Sensors

• Electronically controlled valves

• Relays

• Aftertreatment ID module

NOTICEDo not use electrical components (ECM or ECM sen-sors) or electronic component grounding points forgrounding the welder.

g01143634Illustration 1

Service welding guide (typical diagram)

5. When possible, connect the ground clamp forthe welding equipment directly to the enginecomponent that will be welded. Place the clampas close as possible to the weld. Close positioningreduces the risk of welding current damage to theengine bearings, to the electrical components,and to other components.

6. Protect the wiring harnesses from welding debrisand/or from welding spatter.

7. Use standard welding procedures to weld thematerials together.

System Operation

Engine Governor

The ECM governs the engine. The ECM determinesthe timing, the injection pressure, and the amountof fuel that is delivered to each cylinder. Thesefactors are based on the actual conditions and on thedesired conditions at any given time during startingand operation.

The governor uses the throttle position sensor todetermine the desired engine speed. The governorcompares the desired engine speed to the actualengine speed. The actual engine speed is determinedthrough interpretation of the signals that are receivedby the ECM from the engine speed/timing sensors. Ifthe desired engine speed is greater than the actualengine speed, the governor injects more fuel in orderto increase engine speed.

g01860934Illustration 6

Typical example

The desired engine speed is typically determined byone of the following conditions:

• The position of the throttle

• The desired engine speed in Power Take-Off (PTO)

Timing Considerations

Once the governor has determined the amount offuel that is required, the governor must determinethe timing of the fuel injection. Fuel injection timing isdetermined by the ECM after considering input fromthe following components:

• Coolant temperature sensor

• Intake manifold air temperature sensor

• Intake manifold pressure sensor

• Barometric pressure sensor

The ECM adjusts timing for optimum engineperformance and fuel economy. Actual timing anddesired timing cannot be viewed with the electronicservice tool. The ECM determines the location oftop center of the number one cylinder from thesignals that are provided by the engine speed/timingsensors. The ECM determines when injection shouldoccur relative to top center position. The ECM thenprovides the signal to the injector at the desired time.

Fuel Injection

The ECM sends a high voltage signal to the injectorsolenoids in order to energize the solenoids. Bycontrolling the timing and the duration of the highvoltage signal, the ECM can control the followingaspects of injection:

• Injection timing

• Fuel delivery

The flash file inside the ECM establishes certainlimits on the amount of fuel that can be injected.The FRC Fuel Limit is a limit that is based on theintake manifold pressure. The FRC Fuel Limit is usedto control the air/fuel ratio for control of emissions.When the ECM senses a higher intake manifoldpressure, the ECM increases the FRC Fuel Limit. Ahigher intake manifold pressure indicates that thereis more air in the cylinder. When the ECM increasesthe FRC Fuel Limit, the ECM allows more fuel intothe cylinder.

The Rated Fuel Limit is a limit that is based on thepower rating of the engine and on the engine rpm.The Rated Fuel Limit is like the rack stops and thetorque spring on a mechanically governed engine.The Rated Fuel Limit provides the power curvesand the torque curves for a specific engine familyand a specific engine rating. All of these limits aredetermined at the factory. These limits cannot bechanged.

Customer Parameters and Engine SpeedGoverning

A unique feature with electronic engines is customerspecified parameters. These parameters allow theowner of the machine to fine-tune the ECM for engineoperation. Fine-tuning the ECM allows the machineowner to accommodate the typical usage of themachine and the power train of the machine.

Many of the customer parameters provide additionalrestrictions on the actions that will be performed bythe ECM in response to input from the operator. ThePTO Top Engine Limit is an engine rpm limit that isused by the ECM to limit the fuel during operation ofthe PTO. The ECM will not fuel the injectors abovethis rpm.

Some parameters are intended to notify the operatorof potential engine damage (engine monitoringparameters). Some parameters enhance fueleconomy (machine speed, engine speed limit,and idle shutdown). Other parameters are used toenhance the engine installation into the machine.Other parameters are used to provide operatinginformation to the owner of the machine.

KENR9116-01 11Troubleshooting Section

Other ECM Functions forPerformanceThe ECM can also provide enhanced control of theengine for machine functions such as controlling thecooling fan. Refer to Troubleshooting, “ConfigurationParameters” for supplemental information about thesystems that can be monitored by the ECM in orderto provide enhanced machine performance, fueleconomy, and convenience for the operator.

ECM Lifetime TotalsThe ECM maintains total data of the engine for thefollowing parameters:

• “Total Operating Hours”

• “Engine Lifetime Hours”

• “Total Idle Time”

• “Total Idle Fuel”

• “Total Fuel”

• “Total Max Fuel”

• “Engine Starts”

• “Lifetime Total Engine Revolutions”

• “Average Load Factor”

The “Total Operating Hours” is the operating hours ofthe engine. The operating hours do not include thetime when the ECM is powered but the engine is notrunning.

The “Engine Lifetime Hours” is the number of hourswhen electrical power has been applied to theengine. These hours will include the time when theECM is powered but the engine is not running.

“Total Idle Time” and “Total Idle Fuel” can includeoperating time when the engine is not operatingunder a load.

Fuel Information can be displayed in US gallons orin liters.

“Total Fuel” is the total amount of fuel that isconsumed by the engine during operation.

“Total Max Fuel” is the maximum amount of fuel thatcould have been consumed by the engine duringoperation.

“Engine Starts” is the total number of times when theengine has been started.

“Lifetime Total Engine Revolutions” is the totalnumber of revolutions that have been completed bythe engine crankshaft.

“Average Load Factor” provides relative engineoperating information. “Average Load Factor”compares actual operating information of the engineto the maximum engine operation that is available.“Average Load Factor” is determined by using “TotalMax Fuel”, “Total Idle Fuel”, and “Total Fuel”. All ofthese parameters are available with the electronicservice tool. These parameters are available withinthe menu for “Current Totals”.

Programmable ParametersCertain parameters that affect engine operationmay be changed with the electronic service tool.The parameters are stored in the ECM, and theparameters are protected from unauthorized changesby passwords. These parameters are either systemconfiguration parameters or customer parameters.

System configuration parameters are set at thefactory. System configuration parameters affectemissions or power ratings within an engine family.Factory passwords must be obtained and factorypasswords must be used to change the systemconfiguration parameters.

Customer parameters are variable. Customerparameters affect the following characteristics withinthe limits that are set by the factory, by the monitoringsystem, and by PTO operation:

• Rpm ratings

• Power ratings

Customer passwords may be required to changecustomer specified parameters.

Some of the parameters may affect engine operationin an unusual way. An operator might not expectthis type of effect. Without adequate training,these parameters may lead to power complaintsor performance complaints even though theperformance of the engine is to the specification.

Refer to Troubleshooting, “Configuration Parameters”for additional information on this subject.

PasswordsSystem configuration parameters are protected byfactory passwords. Factory passwords are calculatedon a computer system that is available only toPerkins Distributors. Since factory passwords containalphabetic characters, only the electronic servicetool may change system configuration parameters.System configuration parameters affect the powerrating family or emissions.

Flash File – This file is software that is insidethe ECM. The file contains all the instructions(software) for the ECM and the file contains theperformance maps for a specific engine. The file maybe reprogrammed through flash programming.

Flash Programming – Flash programming is themethod of programming or updating an ECM withan electronic service tool over the data link insteadof replacing components.

FRC – See “Fuel Ratio Control”.

Fuel Pump – See “High Pressure Fuel Pump”.

Fuel Rail – This item is sometimes referred to as theHigh Pressure Fuel Rail. The fuel rail supplies fuel tothe electronic unit injectors. The high-pressure fuelpump and the fuel rail pressure sensor work with theECM in order to maintain the desired fuel pressurein the fuel rail. This pressure is determined bycalibration of the engine in order to enable the engineto meet emissions and performance requirements.

Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor – The fuel rail pressuresensor sends a signal to the ECM that is dependenton the pressure of the fuel in the fuel rail.

Fuel Ratio Control (FRC) – The FRC is a limit thatis based on the control of the ratio of the fuel to air.The FRC is used for purposes of emission control.When the ECM senses a higher intake manifoldair pressure (more air into the cylinder), the FRCincreases the FRC Limit (more fuel into the cylinder).

Full Load Setting (FLS) – The FLS is the parameterthat represents the fuel system adjustment. Thisadjustment is made at the factory in order tofine-tune the fuel system. This parameter must beprogrammed.

Full Torque Setting (FTS) – The FTS is theparameter that represents the adjustment for theengine torque. This adjustment is made at the factoryin order to fine-tune the fuel system. This adjustmentis made with the FLS. This parameter must beprogrammed.

Glow Plug – The glow plug is an optional starting aidfor cold conditions. One glow plug is installed in eachcombustion chamber in order to improve the ability ofthe engine to start. The ECM uses information fromthe engine sensors to determine when the glow plugrelay must provide power to each glow plug. Eachof the glow plugs then provides a hot surface in thecombustion chamber in order to vaporize the mixtureof air and fuel. The vaporization improves ignitionduring the compression stroke of the cylinder.

Glow Plug Relay – The glow plug relay is controlledby the ECM in order to provide high current to theglow plugs.

Harness – The harness is the bundle of wiring(loom) that connects all components of the electronicsystem.

On On Lamp Check When the keyswitch is moved to theON position, the lamps come on fora period of 2 seconds and the lampswill then go off.

The keyswitch is in the ON position butthe engine has not yet been cranked.

Off Off No Faults With the engine in operation, thereare no active warnings, diagnosticcodes or event codes.

The engine is operating with no detectedfaults.

On Off ActiveDiagnostic

If the warning lamp comes on duringengine operation, this indicatesthat an active diagnostic code (anelectrical fault) is present.

The engine is operating normally butthere is one or more faults with theelectronic management system for theengine.

On Flashing Derate(A derate iscaused bycertain activecodes.)

If the warning lamp comes on and theshutdown lamp flashes during engineoperation, this indicates that an activediagnostic code (an electrical fault) ispresent. The diagnostic is sufficientlyserious in order to cause an enginederate.

The engine is operating but there is oneor more active diagnostic codes thathave initiated an engine derate.

Flashing Off Warning(Warning only)

When the warning lamp flashesduring operation of the engine,the lamp indicates that one ormore of the warning values for theengine protection strategy has beenexceeded. However, the value hasnot been exceeded to a level that willcause a derate or a shutdown.

The engine is operating normally.However, there is one or more of themonitored engine parameters that areoutside of the range that is acceptable.

Flash CodesThe “Flash Code” feature is used to flash the codeof all active diagnostic codes and logged diagnosticcodes.

The sequence for the flash code is started by movingthe keyswitch to “Off” and then moving the keyswitchto “On” twice within a period of three seconds. Aftera delay of 2 seconds, the “Shutdown” lamp will flashonce for a period of half a second. This sequenceindicates the start of the active fault codes. Aftera further delay of 2 seconds, the “Warning” lampwill flash repeatedly in order to indicate the activediagnostic codes. Each flash will be on for half asecond and off for 300 milliseconds. The “Warning”lamp will remain off for 2 seconds between each digitof a code. If there is more than one active diagnosticcode, the “Shutdown” lamp will go off for 2 seconds.The lamp will then come on for a period of half asecond. The “Warning” lamp will go off for a period of2 seconds before starting the next code. If there areno active diagnostic codes, the “Warning” lamp willflash the code “551”. Refer to Troubleshooting Guide,“No Diagnostic Code Detected”.

As an example, an active diagnostic code of “21” isindicated by the “Warning” lamp coming on for 500ms, then off for 300 ms, then on for 500 ms, then offfor 2000 ms, then on for 500 ms and then off.

Replacing the ECM

NOTICECare must be taken to ensure that fluids are containedduring performance of inspection, maintenance, test-ing, adjusting, and repair of the product. Be preparedto collect the fluid with suitable containers beforeopening any compartment or disassembling any com-ponent containing fluids.

Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations andmandates.

NOTICEKeep all parts clean from contaminants.

Contaminants may cause rapid wear and shortenedcomponent life.

The engine is equipped with an Electronic ControlModule (ECM). The ECM contains no moving parts.Follow the troubleshooting procedures in this manualin order to be sure that replacing the ECM will correctthe fault. Verify that the suspect ECM is the causeof the fault.

Note: Ensure that the ECM is receiving powerand that the ECM is properly grounded beforereplacement of the ECM is attempted. Refer to theschematic diagram.

A test ECM can be used in order to determine if theECM on the engine is faulty. Install a test ECM inplace of the suspect ECM. Install the flash file withthe correct part number into the test ECM. Programthe parameters for the test ECM. The parametersmust match the parameters in the suspect ECM.Refer to the following test steps for details. If thetest ECM resolves the fault, reconnect the suspectECM. Verify that the fault returns. If the fault returns,replace the ECM.

Note: If an ECM is to be used as a test ECM, “TestECM Mode” must be selected on the electronicservice tool before the engine serial number isentered.

Use the electronic service tool to read the parametersin the suspect ECM. Record the parameters inthe suspect ECM. Install the flash file into the newECM. After the ECM is installed on the engine, theparameters must be programmed into the new ECM.

Note: When a new ECM is not available, an ECMcan be used from an engine that is not in service.The ECM must have the same serial numbersuffix. Ensure that the replacement ECM and thepart number for the flash file match the suspectECM. Be sure to record the parameters from thereplacement ECM. Use the “Copy Configuration ECMReplacement” function in the electronic service tool.

NOTICEIf the flash file and engine application are not matched,engine damage may result.

Perform the following procedure in order to replacethe ECM.

1. Connect the electronic service tool to thediagnostic connector.

2. Use the “Copy Configuration ECM Replacement”function from the electronic service tool. If theprocess is successful, proceed to Step 4. If the“Copy Configuration” failed, proceed to Step 3.

Self-Diagnostics

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) can detectfaults in the electronic system and with engineoperation. A self-diagnostic check is also performedwhenever power is applied to the ECM.

When a fault is detected, a diagnostic trouble codeis generated. This code conforms to the SAE J1939standard. An alarm may also be generated.

Diagnostic Trouble Code – When a fault in theelectronic system is detected, the ECM generates adiagnostic trouble code. The diagnostic trouble codeindicates the specific fault in the circuitry.

Diagnostic codes can have two different states:

• Active

• Logged

Active Code – An active diagnostic code indicatesthat an active fault has been detected by the controlsystem. Active codes require immediate attention.Always service active codes prior to servicing loggedcodes.

Logged Code – Every generated code is storedin the permanent memory of the ECM. The codesare logged for 100 operating hours unless a code iscleared by use of the electronic service tool.

Logged codes may not indicate that a repair isneeded. The fault may have been temporary. Thefault may have been resolved since the loggingof the code. If the system is powered, an activediagnostic trouble code may be generated whenevera component is disconnected. When the componentis reconnected, the code is no longer active. Loggedcodes may be useful to help troubleshoot intermittentfaults. Logged codes can also be used to review theperformance of the engine and the electronic system.

Programming Parametersi03939853

Programming Parameters

The electronic service tool can be used to viewcertain parameters that can affect the operation of theengine. The electronic service tool can also be usedto change certain parameters. The parameters arestored in the Electronic Control Module (ECM). Someof the parameters are protected from unauthorizedchanges by passwords. Parameters that can bechanged have a tattletale number. The tattletalenumber is incremented whenever a parameter ischanged.

i03939990

Test ECM Mode

“Test ECM Mode” is a feature in the software thatcan be used to help troubleshoot an engine that mayhave a fault in the Electronic Control Module (ECM).This feature allows a standard ECM to be used as atest ECM. This feature eliminates the need to stocka test ECM.

1. Search for the latest flash file for the engine.

Note: If a newer software version is available for theengine, install the newest software on the suspectECM. If the new software does not eliminate the fault,continue with this procedure.

2. Use the “Copy Configuration” feature on theelectronic service tool to copy the parametersfrom the suspect ECM.

Note: If the “ECM Replacement” feature cannotbe used, record the programmed values into the“Customer Specified Parameters Worksheet”. Alsorecord the system configuration parameters.

3. Disconnect the suspect ECM. Temporarily connectthe test ECM to the engine. Do not mount the testECM on the engine.

4. Flash program the test ECM with the newestsoftware that is available.

5. Start the “Test ECM Mode” on the electronicservice tool. Access the feature through the“Service” menu. The electronic service tool willdisplay the status of the test ECM and the hoursthat are remaining for the “Test ECM Mode”.

Note: “Test ECM Mode” can only be activated ifthe engine serial number has not already beenprogrammed during normal operation of the ECM.If the engine serial number is programmed and theECM is not in “Test ECM Mode”, the ECM can neverbe used as a test ECM.

6. Use the “Copy Configuration” feature on theelectronic service tool to program the test ECM.

Note: If the “ECM Replacement” feature cannot beused, program the test ECM with the values from the“Customer Specified Parameters Worksheet” and thevalues from the System Configuration Parameters.

7. Program the engine serial number into the testECM.

Note: The “Test ECM Mode” must be activatedbefore the engine serial number is programmed intothe ECM.

8. Verify that the test ECM eliminates the fault.

When the “Test ECM Mode” is activated, an internaltimer sets a 24 hour clock. This clock will count downonly while the ECM is powered and the keyswitchis in the ON position. After the ECM has counteddown the 24 hour period, the ECM will exit the “TestECM Mode”. The parameters and the engine serialnumber will be set.

If the test ECM eliminates the fault, the engine canbe released while the “Test ECM Mode” is still active.

Once an ECM has been activated in the “Test ECMMode”, the ECM will stay in the “Test ECM Mode”until the timer times out. If the ECM is used as a testECM for more than one engine, the “Test ECM Mode”must be reactivated. Anytime prior to the “Test ECMMode” timing out, the ECM can be reset to 24 hours.

• Program a new Electronic Control Module(ECM).

When an ECM is replaced, the system configurationparameters must be programmed into the newECM. A new ECM will allow these parameters tobe programmed once without factory passwords.After the initial programming, some parameters areprotected by factory passwords.

• Rerate the engine.

Rerating may require changing the interlock code,which is protected by factory passwords.

• Unlock parameters.

Factory passwords are required in order tounlock certain system configuration parameters.Refer to Troubleshooting, “System ConfigurationParameters”.

• Clear engine events and certain diagnosticcodes.

Most engine events require factory passwords inorder to clear the code from ECM memory. Clearthese codes only when you are certain that thefault has been corrected. For example, the 190-15Engine Overspeed requires the use of factorypasswords in order to clear the code from ECMmemory.

Since factory passwords contain alphabeticcharacters, the electronic service tool must beused to perform these functions. In order to obtainfactory passwords, proceed as if you already havethe password. If factory passwords are needed,the electronic service tool will request the factorypasswords. The electronic service tool will display theinformation that is required to obtain the passwords.

System ConfigurationParameters

i03893934

System ConfigurationParameters

System configuration parameters affect the emissionsof the engine or the power of the engine. Systemconfiguration parameters are programmed at thefactory. Normally, system configuration parameterswould never need to be changed through the life ofthe engine. System configuration parameters must bereprogrammed if an Electronic Control Module (ECM)is replaced. System configuration parameters do notneed to be reprogrammed if the ECM software ischanged. Factory passwords are required to changethese parameters. The following information is adescription of the system configuration parameters.

“Full Load Setting”The “Full Load Setting” is a number that representsthe adjustment to the fuel system that was made atthe factory in order to fine tune the fuel system. Ifthe ECM is replaced, the “full load setting” must bereprogrammed in order to prevent a 630-2 diagnosticcode from becoming active.

“Full Torque Setting”“Full Torque Setting” is similar to “Full Load Setting”.If the ECM is replaced, the full torque setting must bereprogrammed in order to prevent a 630-2 diagnosticcode from becoming active.

“Rating”The “Rating” is a code that prevents the use of anincorrect power rating and/or emission rating for aspecific engine. Each horsepower rating and eachemission certification has a different code to all otherhorsepower ratings and emission certifications. Thisis a code that prevents the use of an incorrect powerrating and/or emission rating for a specific engine.

When an ECM is replaced, this rating interlock codemust match the code that is stored in the ECM. If therating interlock code does not match the code that isstored in the ECM, both of the following situationswill exist:

• The engine will not run.

• The diagnostic code 631-2 Calibration Module :Erratic, Intermittent, or Incorrect will be active.

Note: The flash programming of a new ratinginterlock replaces the old rating interlock.

This code does not need to be programmed whenthe replacement ECM is for the same engine rating.

If the ECM is for a different engine rating, then thefollowing components may need to be changed:pistons, fuel injectors, and other components.The engine information ratings plate must also bechanged in order to reflect the new rating.

Some systems such as the cooling system or thetransmission may also require changes when theengine is rerated. Please contact the local OEMdealer for further information.

“Engine Serial Number”When a new ECM is delivered, the engine serialnumber in the ECM is not programmed. The “EngineSerial Number” should be programmed to match theengine serial number that is stamped on the engineinformation plate.

Factory Installed Aftertreatment #1Identification NumberThe “Factory Installed Aftertreatment #1 IdentificationNumber” parameter ensures that the correctaftertreatment package is installed.

DPF #1 Soot Loading SensingSystem Configuration CodeThe “DPF #1 Soot Loading Sensing SystemConfiguration Code” is used to determine the typeof diesel particulate filter soot loading sensingsystem. This code is a combination of two letters thatidentifies the orientation of the soot sensor and thegeometry of the DPF. This code is used by the ECMsoftware to identify the correct calibration table inorder to match the soot sensor system to the DPF.The calibration table optimizes the soot readings.

Limp Home Engine Speed RampRateThe “Limp Home Engine Speed Ramp Rate” is themaximum acceleration rate for the engine when theengine has been derated.

1. Monitor the fuel consumption over a period of 50engine hours. If the fuel consumption is excessive,perform the following procedure.

Fuel Leakage

1. Check for evidence of fuel leaks on the engine.Investigate any evidence of a fuel leak and rectifythe leak.

Fuel Quality

1. The quality of the fuel that is used in the enginewill affect the rate of fuel consumption. Refer to“General Fuel Information” in the Operation andMaintenance Manual, “Refill Capacities”.

2. If the fuel is not of an acceptable quality, drainthe fuel system and replace the fuel filters. Refillthe fuel system with fuel of an acceptable quality.Refer to the applicable sections in the Operationand Maintenance Manual.

3. If the fuel is of an acceptable quality, refer to“Quality of Oil”.

Quality of Oil

1. The nominal viscosity of the lubricating oil thatis used in the engine will affect the rate of fuelconsumption. The viscosity of lubricating oil isdefined by the SAE grade of the lubricating oil.The grade of the lubricating oil must be correctfor the ambient conditions. Lubricating oil that isintended for use in high ambient temperatureswill have a negative effect upon the rate of fuelconsumption in cold ambient temperatures. Referto “Engine Oil” in the Operation and MaintenanceManual, “Refill Capacities”.

2. The actual viscosity of the lubricating oil that isused in the engine will change throughout theservice life of the oil. Lubricating oil that is heavilycontaminated will have a negative effect upon therate of fuel consumption.

3. If the oil is not of an acceptable quality or if theoil has exceeded the service life, drain the oilsystem and replace the oil filters. Refill the oilsystem with oil of an acceptable quality. Referto the applicable sections in the Operation andMaintenance Manual.

4. If the oil is of an acceptable quality, refer to “LowEngine Temperature”.

Low Engine Temperature

1. The operating temperature of the engine will affectthe rate of fuel consumption. Operation of theengine below the correct temperature will increasefuel consumption. Failure of the water temperatureregulator can prevent the engine from operating atthe correct temperature.

2. If the engine operating temperature is low, checkthe operation of the water temperature regulator. Ifthe water temperature regulator does not operatecorrectly, a new water temperature regulator mustbe installed. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly,“Water Temperature Regulator - Remove andInstall”.

Prolonged Operation at Idle Speed

Prolonged operation of the engine at idle speedincreases fuel consumption.

When the engine is operated at idle speed, the fuelthat is consumed provides no useful work. Prolongedoperation at idle speed will cause a measurabledeterioration in the overall fuel consumption of theengine.

108 KENR9116-01Troubleshooting Section

Operation of the engine for long periods at idlespeed will cause a deterioration of the internalcomponents of the engine. A deterioration of theinternal components of the engine will increase fuelconsumption.

Engine Operating Speed

The operating speed of the engine will affect the rateof fuel consumption.

High engine speed will increase fuel consumption.At high engine speeds, internal power losses in theengine increase and more power is required to drivethe alternator and the fan. The power losses increasefuel consumption.

Lugging down the engine to a low engine speed willincrease fuel consumption. At low engine speeds,the combustion efficiency of the engine is reduced,requiring more fuel.

Air Inlet and Exhaust System

Leakage of gas or an increased restriction in eitherthe air intake or the exhaust system can reducethe flow of combustion gas through the engine. Achange in the flow of combustion air into the engineadversely affects combustion efficiency and the rateof fuel consumption.

1. Check the air intake system for leakage orrestrictions. Refer to Systems Operation, Testingand Adjusting, “Air Inlet and Exhaust System”.

2. Check the exhaust system for leakage orrestrictions. Refer to Systems Operation, Testingand Adjusting, “Air Inlet and Exhaust System”.

3. Repair all defects. Verify that the repair haseliminated the fault.

Cooling Fan

Excessive operation of the cooling fan will increasefuel consumption. Investigate the cause of excessiveoperation of the cooling fan.

Reduced Pressure of Intake Air

1. If the pressure of the intake air at the intakemanifold is lower than normal, either the speedof the engine will need to be higher or more fuelmust be injected in order to produce the samepower. Either of these conditions will increase thefuel consumption.

Note: Low pressure in the air intake will create a526-07 diagnostic code.

2. On engines that have one turbocharger, checkthe pipe from the outlet of the turbochargercompressor for leaks. If necessary, repair anyleaks.

3. On engines that have two turbochargers, checkthe pipes from the outlets of the turbochargercompressors for leaks. If necessary, repair anyleaks.

4. On engines that have one turbocharger, checkfor the correct operation of the wastegate in theturbocharger. Refer to Systems Operation, Testingand Adjusting, “Turbocharger - Inspect”.

5. On engines that have two turbochargers, checkfor the correct operation of the wastegate in thehigh-pressure turbocharger. Refer to SystemsOperation, Testing and Adjusting, “Turbocharger- Inspect”.

6. If a turbocharger is suspected as being faulty,replace the turbocharger. Refer to Disassemblyand Assembly, “Turbocharger - Remove” andDisassembly and Assembly, “Turbocharger -Install”.

Excessive Valve Lash

Excessive valve lash will cause a change in thetiming of the opening and closing of the inlet andexhaust valves. Excessive valve lash can causea reduction of the flow of combustion air into theengine. Reduced flow of combustion air will increasethe fuel consumption rate.

Refer to the Troubleshooting Guide, “Excessive ValveLash”.

Failure of the Primary Speed/TimingSensor

If the primary speed/timing sensor fails, the enginewill continue to operate using the signal from thesecondary speed/timing sensor. The secondaryspeed/timing sensor is less precise than the primaryspeed/timing sensor. Timing differences betweenthe secondary speed/timing sensor and the primaryspeed/timing sensor may cause an increase in fuelconsumption.

Refer to Troubleshooting, “Engine Speed/TimingSensor Circuit - Test”.

3. When possible, modify the cooling system andthe air charge cooler in order to make the systemsuitable for local conditions.

Intake Air Restriction

Engines with a single turbocharger

Low air pressure at the air intake for the turbochargercan be caused by a restriction in the air intake.When the pressure of the intake air is low, theturbocharger works harder in order to achieve thedesired intake manifold pressure. This increasesintake air temperature.

Engines with twin turbochargers

Low air pressure at the air intake for the turbochargerscan be caused by a restriction in the air intake.When the pressure of the intake air is low, theturbochargers work harder in order to achieve thedesired intake manifold pressure. This increasesintake air temperature.

Measure the intake manifold pressure while theengine is operating under load. For specific data,refer to PTMI on the Perkins web site.

Intake Air Restriction

1. Check for blocked air filters. Check for obstructionsin the air intake.

2. Replace the air filters or remove the obstructionfrom the air intake.

Diagnostic Codes for High Intake Manifold Air Temperature

J1939Code Description Information

105-15 Engine Intake Manifold #1 Temperature : High - leastsevere (1)

The engine has been running for three minutes.No other 105 codes are active.168 codes are not active.Code 412-16 is not active.The intake manifold air temperature exceeds the valuethat is programmed into the ECM for eight seconds.The code is logged.This code will be reset when the temperature is lessthan 122° C (252° F) for four seconds.

105-16 Engine Intake Manifold #1 Temperature : High -Moderate Severity (2)

The engine has been running for three minutes.No other 105 codes are active.168 codes are not active.Code 412-16 is not active.The intake manifold air temperature exceeds the valuethat is programmed into the ECM for eight seconds.The engine will be derated. The code is logged.This code will be reset when the temperature is lessthan 124° C (255° F) for 20 seconds.

Use this procedure to determine the cause of highintake manifold air temperature.

1. Verify that the coolant is filled to the proper level.If the coolant level is too low, air will get into thecooling system. Air in the cooling system willcause a reduction in coolant flow. Coolant flow isrequired in order to cool the intake air.

2. Check the aftercooler for debris or damage. Debrisbetween the fins of the aftercooler core restrictsair flow through the core.

3. Check the operation of the cooling fan. A fan thatis not turning at the correct speed can causeimproper air speed across the aftercooler core.The lack of proper air flow across the aftercoolercore can cause the intake air not to cool to theproper temperature.

4. Check for a restriction in the air inlet system. Arestriction of the air that is coming into the enginecan cause high cylinder temperatures. Highcylinder temperatures cause higher than normaltemperatures in the cooling system. The coolanttemperature must be within the correct range inorder to cool the intake air.

5. Check for a restriction in the exhaust system.A restriction of the air that is coming out of theengine can cause high cylinder temperatures.

6. Check for the correct operation of the exhaustback pressure valve. Refer to Troubleshooting,“Motorized Valve - Test”.

7. Check for a high ambient temperature. Whenoutside temperatures are too high for the ratingof the cooling system, there is not enough of atemperature difference between the outside airand coolant temperatures.

8. Make an allowance for high altitude operation. Thecooling capacity of the cooling system is reducedas the engine is operated at higher altitudes.

9. The engine may be running in the lug condition.When the load that is applied to the engine istoo large, the engine will run in the lug condition.When the engine is running in the lug condition,engine rpm does not increase with an increase offuel. This lower engine rpm causes a reduction incoolant flow through the system.

Oil Contains Fuel

Measuring Fuel DilutionDiesel fuel is chemically like the lubricants that areused in diesel engines. A slow fuel leak will blend thefuel into the oil. Normal operating temperatures maycause volatile parts of the fuel to vaporize. The fuelthat remains in the oil is less volatile.

A closed cup flash test can be performed in orderto detect fuel dilution. The flash test is designedto measure the volatile parts of the fuel that areremaining in the oil. Detecting less volatile fuel isdifficult. Low volatility reduces the accuracy of theflash test.

Since the flash test does not accurately detectfuel dilution, do not use the flash test as the onlymeasure of fuel dilution. Instead, verify the dilutionby the following methods:

• Gas chromatograph fuel dilution test

• Oil viscosity

The test that uses a gas chromatograph is designedto measure fuel dilution in crankcase oils. The gaschromatograph can identify the small chemicaldifferences between diesel fuel and lubricating oil.Even though the gas chromatograph provides a moreaccurate measure of fuel dilution, always verify theresults with the viscosity test.

A significant level of fuel dilution reduces oil viscosity.If an unacceptable level of fuel dilution is suspected,the kinematic viscosity of the oil must be measured.

Fuel dilution that is greater than 4 percent willusually cause viscosity that is less than the specifiedviscosity grade. If the oil is still within the specifiedviscosity grade, fuel dilution is unlikely to reachan unacceptable level. Use the following chart todetermine if viscosity has reached the minimumacceptable level. The guidelines of viscosity in thechart are slightly less than the limits of the SAEviscosity grades. However, these guidelines stillprovide adequate engine protection.

• Shaft seal for the high pressure fuel pump

Recommended Actions

Fuel Injector Seals

Look for signs of damage to the seals for the fuelinjectors. Replace any seals that are leaking.

Fuel Injector Tip

Look for signs of damage to the fuel injectors.Check the fuel injector tip for cracks or breakage. Ifnecessary, replace the unit injectors.

Shaft Seal for the High Pressure FuelPump

Check for fuel leakage around the shaft seal for thehigh pressure fuel pump. If fuel is leaking past theshaft seal, there is a restriction in the return line tothe fuel tank. Investigate the cause of the restrictionand then repair the fuel line.

If the shaft seal for the high pressure fuel pump isleaking, the fuel pump must be replaced. Refer toDisassembly and Assembly, “Fuel Injection Pump- Remove” and Disassembly and Assembly, “FuelInjection Pump - Install”.

Troubleshooting with anEvent Code

i03939271

Event Codes

An event code alerts the operator to an abnormalengine operating condition such as low oil pressureor high coolant temperature. As this engine normallyreports faults as J1939 codes, event codes are onlyidentifiable by the Failure Mode Identifier (FMI). TheFMI is the second element of the fault code. Allevents are identified by the following FMIs:

Table 98

FMI Description

15 Parameter High - Least Severe (1)

16 Parameter High - Moderate Severity (2)

0 Parameter High - Most Severe (3)

17 Parameter Low - Least Severe (1)

18 Parameter Low - Moderate Severity (2)

1 Parameter Low - Most Severe (3)

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) can log events.Logged events usually indicate a mechanical faultinstead of an electronic system fault or the engine isoperating outside the design specification.

Note: If a diagnostic code has already been logged,any associated event code to that fault will not belogged.

Note: If an event code is already active, a diagnosticcode that is associated with the same sensor will notbe active.

Active Event CodesAn active event code represents a fault with engineoperation. Correct the fault as soon as possible.

Active event codes are listed in ascending numericalorder. The code with the lowest number is listed first.

Event codes will cause the warning lamp to illuminateand the event will be logged.

Illustration 94 is an example of the operating range ofan oil temperature sensor. Do not use the Illustrationto troubleshoot the oil temperature sensor.

g01365757Illustration 94Example of the typical operating range of a sensor(1) This area represents the normal operating range of the engine

parameter.(2) In these areas, the engine is operating in an unsafe operating

range of the monitored parameter. An event code will begenerated for the monitored parameter. The sensor circuit doesnot have an electronic fault.

(3) In these areas, the signal from the sensor is outside of theoperating range of the sensor. The sensor circuit has anelectronic fault. A diagnostic code will be generated for thesensor circuit. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Self Diagnostics” foradditional information on diagnostic codes.

The following format is used for event codes:

“XXXX-YY Description of the event”

The “XXXX” represents a System Parameter Numberfor the event code. The “-YY” represents FMI forthe severity of the event. The FMI is followed bya description of the event. Refer to the followingexample:

“100-17 Engine Oil Pressure : Low - Least Severe (1)”

In this example, the number “-17” indicates theseverity of the event. The ECM has three levels ofresponse to events:

Page 153: Troubleshooting¥ndbøker/Verksted...Perkins cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard. The warnings in this publication and on the product

This document is printed from SPI². Not for RESALE

KENR9116-01 153Troubleshooting Section

Level (1) – This level can be referred to as the“Warning Level”. This condition represents a seriousproblem with engine operation. However, thiscondition does not require the engine to derate orshut down. The warning lamp will come on.

Level (2) – This level can be referred to as the“Derate Level”. For this condition, the ECM will deratethe engine in order to help prevent possible enginedamage. The warning lamp will flash.

Level (3) – This level can be referred to as the“Shutdown Level”. A “Level 3” event code will belogged in the ECM and the engine will shut down ifthe shutdown feature is enabled. The warning lampwill flash and the shutdown lamp will come on.

Responses to certain events may be programmedinto the ECM. Refer to Troubleshooting, “SystemConfiguration Parameters”.

Logged Event CodesWhen the ECM generates an event code, the ECMlogs the code in permanent memory. The ECM hasan internal diagnostic clock. The ECM will recordthe following information when an event code isgenerated:

• The hour of the first occurrence of the code

• The hour of the last occurrence of the code

• The number of occurrences of the code

Logged events are listed in chronological order. Themost recent event code is listed first.

This information can be helpful for troubleshootingintermittent faults. Logged codes can also be used toreview the performance of the engine.

Clearing Event CodesA code is cleared from memory when one of thefollowing conditions occur:

• The code does not recur for 100 hours.

• A new code is logged and there are already tencodes in memory. In this case, the oldest code iscleared.

• The service technician manually clears the code.

Always clear logged event codes after investigatingand correcting the fault which generated the code.

TroubleshootingFor basic troubleshooting of the engine, perform thefollowing steps in order to diagnose a malfunction:

1. Obtain the following information about thecomplaint from the operator:

• The event and the time of the event

• Determine the conditions for the event. Theconditions will include the engine rpm and theload.

• Determine if there are any systems that wereinstalled by the dealer or by the customer thatcould cause the event.

• Determine whether any additional eventsoccurred.

2. Verify that the complaint is not due to normalengine operation. Verify that the complaint is notdue to error of the operator.

3. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Diagnostic TroubleCodes”. Perform the troubleshooting procedurethat is shown against the reported code.

If these steps do not resolve the fault, identify theprocedures in this manual that best describe theevent. Check each probable cause according to thetests that are recommended.

The ECM detects one of the following conditions:

The ECM has been powered for 3 seconds.

Diagnostic code 168-4 is not active.

3510 codes are not active.

The setting for the lower diagnostic limit has been exceeded for one second.

If equipped, the warning lamp will come on. The diagnostic code will belogged.

91-2 Accelerator Pedal Position 1 :Erratic, Intermittent, or Incorrect

29-2 Accelerator Pedal Position 2 :Erratic, Intermittent, or Incorrect

The ECM detects the following condition:

The signal from the analog throttle position sensor is invalid.

If equipped, the warning lamp will come on. The diagnostic code will belogged.

If a fault occurs with the primary throttle and asecondary throttle is installed, the engine uses thesecondary throttle until the fault is repaired.

If a fault occurs with the secondary throttle, theengine will use the primary throttle until the fault isrepaired.

If a functional throttle is not available, the followingconditions will occur:

• The engine will default to the limp home speed.

• If the engine speed is higher than the limp homespeed, the engine will decelerate to the limp homespeed.

• If the engine speed is lower than the limp homespeed, the engine speed will remain at the currentspeed.

• The engine will remain at this speed while thediagnostic code remains active.

• All inputs from the faulty throttle are ignored by theECM until the fault is repaired.

• All inputs from the repaired throttle will be ignoredby the ECM until the keyswitch has been cycled.

The diagnostic codes above relate to an analogsensor. Use this procedure only if the analog sensoruses an output from a variable resistor.

The sensor is most likely to be mounted on a throttlepedal. The sensor is attached directly to the throttleassembly. The sensor provides an output voltage tothe ECM. The sensor output voltage will vary withthe position of the throttle. Foot operated or handoperated throttle assemblies are available.

The sensor receives +5 VDC from the ECM. Thesensor will produce a raw signal voltage that willalter between low idle and high idle. The voltage ischanged into a throttle position within the range 0%to 100% by the ECM.

The sensor senses the speed requirement fromthe throttle position. A second sensor may overridethis speed requirement from the first sensor. Thisoverride will be subject to an input from a secondarythrottle or from the SAE J1939 (CAN) data link orfrom a PTO control.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes for the Data Link Circuit

J1939Code

Description Notes

639-9 J1939 Network #1 : Abnormal UpdateRate

Another controller has incorrectly stopped transmitting a J1939speed request (TSC1) or another controller has incorrectly startedtransmitting a J1939 speed request.The ECM will log the diagnostic code.The engine will not start.

The following background information is relatedto this procedure:

The CAN data link is also known as J1939 data link.The data link is an industry standard for sending databetween different devices in the same application.

High speed data is transferred via the data link.The data link cannot be accurately tested withoutcomplicated equipment. The data link requires aresistance of 60 Ohms between the two wires in orderto transmit the data correctly. This resistance is madeup of two 120 Ohm resistors. The two resistors areknown as “Terminating Resistors”. The terminatingresistors should be at opposite ends of a data linkcircuit. If this resistance is not present, then the datawill be intermittent or unreadable.

Note: The wiring for the J1939 data link is a shieldedtwisted pair cable. If the wiring is damaged, thereplacement type must be shielded twisted pair cable.

Also, use this procedure if the digital throttle positionsensor is suspected of incorrect operation.

If a fault occurs with the primary throttle, and asecondary throttle is installed, the engine will use thesecondary throttle until the fault is repaired.

If a fault occurs with the secondary throttle, theengine will use the primary throttle until the fault isrepaired.

If a functional throttle is not available, the followingconditions will occur:

• The engine will default to the limp home speed.

• If the engine speed is higher than the limp homespeed, the engine will decelerate to the limp homespeed.

• If the engine speed is lower than the limp homespeed, the engine speed will remain at the currentspeed.

• The engine will remain at this speed while thediagnostic code remains active.

• All inputs from the faulty throttle are ignored by theECM until the fault is repaired.

• All inputs from the repaired throttle will be ignoredby the ECM until the keyswitch has been cycled.

Digital Throttle Position Sensor

The digital throttle position sensor is used to providea digital throttle position signal to the ECM. Thesensor output is a constant frequency signal with apulse width that varies with the throttle position. Thisoutput signal is referred to as either a duty cycle ora pulse width modulated signal (PWM). This outputsignal is expressed as a percentage between 0 and100 percent.

The digital throttle position sensor is most likely to beattached directly to the throttle assembly. The digitalthrottle position sensor requires no adjustment.

The duty cycle at low idle and the duty cycle at highidle can vary depending on the application. Thepercent of duty cycle is translated in the ECM into athrottle position of 3 to 100 percent.

The digital throttle position sensors are powered by+8 VDC from the ECM. The supply voltage is fromthe J1:4 to terminal “A” of the digital throttle positionsensor connector.

If the application is using the ECM dedicated PTOfunctions, the digital throttle position sensor will beignored while the engine is in PTO mode.

Test Step 2. Check for Active DiagnosticCodes

A. Connect the electronic service tool to thediagnostic connector.

B. Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.

C. Monitor the active diagnostic code screen on theelectronic service tool. Check and record activediagnostic codes.

Note: When the ECM automatically calibrates newduty cycle values for the low idle throttle position andthe high idle throttle position, the ECM assumes theinitial lower position for the duty cycle at low idle andthe initial upper position for the duty cycle at high idle.The initial lower position and the initial upper positioncan be obtained by accessing the following screenson the electronic service tool:

• “Service”

• “Throttle Configuration”

• For throttle position sensor 1, select “Throttle#1”. For throttle position sensor 2 , select“Throttle# 2”.

As a result, you may notice that the throttleposition status reaches 100 percent well beforethe throttle pedal is fully depressed. This situationis normal. After some cycling of the throttle tothe high idle position, the ECM will adjust thecalibration automatically, if the high idle stopposition is within the duty cycle range, and thelow idle is in the duty cycle range. During normaloperation, more movement of the throttle can berequired for the throttle position status to increaseabove 3 percent. The status may reach the 100percent value prior to the limit of the high idleposition. This is done in order to ensure that thethrottle reaches these two critical points for engineoperation.

Electrical Connectors - Inspect

System Operation Description:

Most electrical faults are caused by poor connections.The following procedure will assist in detectingfaults with connectors and with wiring. If a fault isfound, correct the condition and verify that the faultis resolved.

Intermittent electrical faults are sometimes resolvedby disconnecting and reconnecting connectors.Check for diagnostic codes immediately beforedisconnecting a connector. Also check for diagnosticcodes after reconnecting the connector. If the statusof a diagnostic code is changed due to disconnectingand reconnecting a connector, there are severalpossible reasons. The likely reasons are looseterminals, improperly crimped terminals, moisture,corrosion, and inadequate mating of a connection.

Follow these guidelines:

• Always use a 2900A019 Removal Tool to removethe pins from the P1/P2 connectors.

• Always use a 2900A033 Crimp Tool to serviceDeutsch HD and DT connectors. Never solder theterminals onto the wires.

• Always use a 28170079 Removal Tool to removewedges from DT connectors. Never use ascrewdriver to pry a wedge from a connector.

• Always use a 2900A033 Crimp Tool to serviceAMP seal connectors.

• Refer to Troubleshooting, “ECM HarnessConnector Terminals” in order to service theconnectors for the Electronic Control Module(ECM).

• Always use a breakout harness for a voltmeterprobe or a test light. Never break the insulation of awire in order to access a circuit for measurements.

• If a wire is cut, always install a new terminal forthe repair.

The connection of any electrical equipment andthe disconnection of any electrical equipmentmaycause an explosion hazard which may result in in-jury or death. Do not connect any electrical equip-ment or disconnect any electrical equipment in anexplosive atmosphere.

Test Step 1. Check Connectors forMoisture and Corrosion

Some components are not shown for clarity.(1) Wire pulled to one side. Note the gap between the seal and

the wire.

A. Inspect all the harnesses. Ensure that the routingof the wiring harness allows the wires to enter theface of each connector at a perpendicular angle.Otherwise, the wire will deform the seal bore.Refer to Illustration 130. This condition will createa path for the entrance of moisture. Verify that theseals for the wires are sealing correctly.

C. Disconnect the suspect connector and inspect theconnector seal. Ensure that the seal is in goodcondition. If necessary, replace the connector.

D. Thoroughly inspect the connectors for evidenceof moisture entry.

Note: Some minor seal abrasion on connector sealsis normal. Minor seal abrasion will not allow the entryof moisture.

If moisture or corrosion is evident in the connector,the source of the moisture entry must be identifiedand repaired. If the source of the moisture entryis not repaired, the fault will recur. Simply dryingthe connector will not rectify the fault. Check thefollowing items for the possible moisture entrypath:

• Missing seals

• Incorrectly installed seals

• Nicks in exposed insulation

• Improperly mated connectors

Moisture can also travel to a connector through theinside of a wire. If moisture is found in a connector,thoroughly check the connector harness fordamage. Also check other connectors that sharethe harness for moisture.

Note: The ECM is a sealed unit. If moisture is foundin an ECM connector, the ECM is not the source ofthe moisture. Do not replace the ECM.

The ECM has been powered for 2 seconds.

If equipped, the warning light will come on. The ECM will log the diagnostic code.The ECM will set data for the outlet pressure for the NRS to the default value. The defaultvalue for the outlet pressure for the NRS is 250 kPa (36.3 psi).

The following conditions must exist before any of theabove codes will become active:

• There are no active 3509 codes.

• There are no active 168 codes.

The following background information is relatedto this procedure:

The 5 VDC sensor supply provides power to all 5VDC sensors. The ECM supplies 5.0 ± 0.2 VDC toterminal “3” of the fuel rail pressure sensor connectorand to terminal “1” of all other pressure sensorconnectors. The sensor common from the ECMconnector goes to terminal “1” of the fuel rail pressuresensor connector. The sensor common from the ECMconnector goes to terminal “2” of all other pressuresensor connectors. The sensor supply is output shortcircuit protected. A short circuit to the battery will notdamage the circuit inside the ECM.

Pull-up Voltage

The ECM continuously outputs a pull-up voltageon the circuit for the sensor signal wire. The ECMuses this pull-up voltage in order to detect an openin the signal circuit. When the ECM detects thepresence of a voltage that is above a threshold on thesignal circuit, the ECM will generate an open circuitdiagnostic code (XXXX-3) for the sensor.

If the sensor is disconnected at the sensor connector,the presence of pull-up voltage at the sensorconnector indicates that the wires from the sensorconnector to the ECM are not open or shorted toground. If the sensor is disconnected at the sensorconnector, the absence of pull-up voltage at thesensor connector indicates an open in the signal wireor a short to ground. If the sensor is disconnected atthe sensor connector and the voltage at the sensorconnector is different from pull-up voltage, the signalwire is shorted to another wire in the harness.

The engine uses two engine speed/timing sensors.The primary speed/timing sensor is located on theleft-hand side of the cylinder block close to theflywheel housing. The primary speed/timing sensorgenerates a signal by detecting the movement ofthe teeth that are located on the crankshaft timingring. The signal that is generated by the speed/timingsensor is transmitted to the Electronic ControlModule (ECM). The ECM uses the signal from thespeed/timing sensor to calculate the position of thecrankshaft. The signal is also used to determine theengine speed.

The secondary speed/timing sensor is located on theright-hand side of the cylinder block toward the rearof the engine. The secondary speed/timing sensorgenerates a signal that is related to the camshaftposition. The secondary speed/timing sensor detectsthe movement of the teeth on the timing ring forthe camshaft. The signal that is generated by thespeed/timing sensor is transmitted to the ECM. TheECM calculates the speed and the rotational positionof the engine by using the signal. The secondaryspeed/timing sensor is required for starting purposes.

During normal operation, the secondary speed/timingsensor is used to determine the cycle that theengine is on. When the timing has been established,the primary speed/timing sensor is then used todetermine the engine speed and the angular position.

The loss of signal to the primary sensor and/or thesecondary sensor will result in one of the followingfaults:

• The engine will continue to run when only onesensor signal is present from either the primarysensor or the secondary sensor.

• Loss of signal from the primary sensor and thesecondary sensor during operation of the enginewill cause fuel injection to be terminated. Theengine will stop.

The primary sensor and the secondary sensor areinterchangeable components. If a sensor is suspect,the sensors can be exchanged in order to eliminatea fault. If a secondary sensor is suspect and areplacement secondary sensor is not available, thenthe primary sensor and the secondary sensor canbe exchanged. The exchange will allow testing todetermine if the secondary sensor is faulty.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes for the Circuit for the DPF Inlet Temperature Sensor

J1939Code

Description Notes

3242-3 Particulate Trap Intake GasTemperature : Voltage Above Normal

The ECM detects the following conditions:

The signal voltage for the DPF inlet temperature sensor is greater than4.7 VDC for at least 4 seconds.

The ECM has been powered for at least 7 seconds.

If equipped, the warning light will come on. The ECM will log the diagnosticcode. The engine will be derated.

3242-4 Particulate Trap Intake GasTemperature : Voltage Below Normal

The ECM detects the following conditions:

The signal voltage for the DPF inlet temperature sensor is less than 0.3VDC for at least 4 seconds.

The ECM has been powered for at least 7 seconds.

If equipped, the warning light will come on. The ECM will log the diagnosticcode. The engine will be derated.

Pull-up Voltage

The ECM continuously outputs a pull-up voltageon the circuit for the sensor signal wire. The ECMuses this pull-up voltage in order to detect an openin the signal circuit. When the ECM detects thepresence of a voltage that is above a threshold on thesignal circuit, the ECM will generate an open circuitdiagnostic code XXXX-3 for the sensor.

If the sensor is disconnected at the sensor connector,the presence of pull-up voltage at the sensorconnector indicates that the wires from the sensorconnector to the ECM are not open or shorted toground. If the sensor is disconnected at the sensorconnector, the absence of pull-up voltage at thesensor connector indicates an open in the signal wireor a short to ground. If the sensor is disconnected atthe sensor connector and the voltage at the sensorconnector is different from pull-up voltage, the signalwire is shorted to another wire in the harness.

An ECMthat was previously blank will require a total of 2 hours of operation beforethe diagnostic code will be logged.The ECM is unable to activate the relay for the glow plug starting aid. Theglow plugs will not operate or the glow plugs will operate all the time. Theengine may be difficult to start in cold temperatures and the exhaust mayemit white smoke.

The following background information is relatedto this procedure:

The starting aid is used to improve the enginestarting when the engine is cold. With the keyswitchin the ON position, the Electronic Control Module(ECM) will monitor the coolant temperature and theair temperature in the engine intake manifold in orderto determine whether the glow plugs are used. If theglow plugs are required, the ECM will energize thestarting aid relay for a controlled period. While thestarting aid relay is energized, power is supplied tothe glow plugs. If a “Wait-to-Start” lamp is installed,the lamp will indicate the “Wait To Start” period.

The engine is equipped with ether injection. Glowplugs are used for temperatures that are between5° C (41° F) and −25 °C (−13 °F). If the ambienttemperature is below −25 °C (−13 °F), the glow plugsare disabled and ether injection is used.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes for the Ignition Keyswitch and the Battery Supply Circuit

J1939Code

Description Notes

168-2 Battery Potential / Power Input 1 :Erratic, Intermittent or Incorrect

This code indicates that the battery circuit for the ECM is intermittent whilethe engine is running.The ECM detects the following conditions:

Three voltage readings that are below 6 VDC in a period of 7 seconds will bedetected by the ECM. The voltage must then increase to more than 9 VDC.

The keyswitch is in the ON position.

The engine is running.

The engine is not cranking.

The diagnostic code will normally be logged. If the battery voltagedisappears without returning, the ECM will not log this diagnostic codeand the engine will shut down. This shutdown will depend on the length oftime for the occurrence of the fault.The check engine lamp and the warning lamp may come on.The engine may experience changes in the engine rpm, and intermittentengine shutdowns or complete engine shutdowns while the conditions thatcause the diagnostic code are present. The ECM may stop injecting fuel.This may be dependent on the length of time for the occurrence of the fault.

168-3 Battery Potential / Power Input 1 :Voltage Above Normal

This code indicates that the battery circuit to the ECM has excessivevoltage while the engine is running.The ECM detects the following conditions:

For 24 V systems, the battery voltage to the ECM exceeds 32 VDC formore than 0.5 seconds.For 12 V systems, the battery voltage to the ECM exceeds 16 VDC formore than 0.5 seconds.

The keyswitch is in the ON position.

The engine is not cranking.

The engine has been running for more than 30 seconds.

The ECM will log the diagnostic code. If equipped, the warning lamp maycome on.

168-4 Battery Potential / Power Input 1 :Voltage Below Normal

This code indicates that the battery circuit for the ECM has low voltagewhile the engine is running.The ECM detects the following conditions:

For 24 V systems, the battery voltage to the ECM is below 18 VDC formore than 0.5 seconds.For 12 V systems, the battery voltage to the ECM is below 9 VDC for morethan 0.5 seconds.

The keyswitch is in the ON position.

The engine is not cranking.

The engine has been running for more than 3 seconds.

If equipped, the warning lamp may come on. The ECM will normally log thediagnostic code. If battery voltage disappears without returning, the ECMwill not log this diagnostic code and the engine will shut down.The engine will derate 100 percent.The engine may experience changes in the engine rpm, and intermittentengine shutdowns or complete engine shutdowns while the conditions thatcause this diagnostic code are present.

250 KENR9116-01Troubleshooting Section

The ECM receives electrical power (batteryvoltage) through the wiring that is supplied by themanufacturer of the application. Unswitched battery+voltage is supplied through P1: 48, 52, 53, 55, and57. The battery- is supplied through P1: 61, 63, 65,67, and 69. The ECM receives the input from thekeyswitch at P1:70 when the keyswitch is in the ONposition or in the START position. When the ECMdetects battery voltage at this input, the ECM willpower up. When battery voltage is removed from thisinput, the ECM will power down.

The cause of an intermittent power supply to theECM can occur on either the positive side or on thenegative side of the battery circuit. The connectionsfor the unswitched battery+ may be routed through adedicated protection device (circuit breaker).

Some applications may be equipped with anengine protection shutdown system or an idle timershutdown system that interrupts electrical powerto the keyswitch. The engine protection shutdownsystem can be an aftermarket device and the idletimer shutdown system can be external to the ECM.Some of these systems will not supply power to theECM until one of the following conditions is met:

• The engine is cranking.

• The engine oil pressure achieves acceptable limits.

• An override button is pressed.

These devices may be the cause of intermittentpower to the ECM. These devices may also shutdown the engine.

Usually, battery power to the diagnostic connectoris available and the battery power to the datalink connector is independent of the keyswitch.Therefore, although the electronic service tool canbe powered up, there may be no communicationwith the engine ECM. The engine ECM requires thekeyswitch to be in the ON position in order to maintaincommunications. The ECM may power down a shorttime after connecting the electronic service tool if thekeyswitch is in the OFF position.

For intermittent faults such as intermittent shutdownsthat could be caused by the application wiring,temporarily bypassing the application wiring may bean effective means of determining the root cause. Ifthe symptoms disappear with the bypass wiring, theapplication wiring is the cause of the fault. A meansof bypassing the application wiring is explained in thistest procedure. This procedure is especially importantfor applications that do not provide dedicated circuitsfor the unswitched battery and the connections forthe keyswitch.

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) detects the following conditions:

A low current condition (open circuit) for each of five consecutive attempts tooperate

Battery voltage above 9 VDC for 2 seconds

If equipped, the warning light will come on. The ECM will log the diagnostic code.The engine will have low power and/or rough running.When a “Cylinder Cutout Test” is performed, a faulty electronic unit injector willindicate a low reading in comparison with the other electronic unit injectors.The ECM will continue to attempt to operate the electronic unit injector after thediagnostic code has been logged. An open circuit will prevent the operationof the electronic unit injector.

655-6 Engine Injector Cylinder #05: Current Above Normal(1206E-E66 engine only)

656-6 Engine Injector Cylinder #06: Current Above Normal(1206E-E66 engine only)

The ECM detects the following conditions:

A high current condition (short circuit) for each of five consecutive attempts tooperate

Battery voltage above 9 VDC for 2 seconds

If equipped, the warning light will come on. The ECM will log the diagnostic code.The engine will have low power and/or rough running.The ECM will continue to attempt to operate the electronic unit injector afterthe diagnostic code has been logged. A short circuit will prevent the operationof the electronic unit injector.

An electrical fault can prevent the electronic unitinjector from operating. An open circuit or a shortcircuit in the ECM that is unique to one electronicunit injector will prevent the individual electronicunit injector from operating. An open circuit or ashort circuit in common wiring within the ECM canprevent the two electronic unit injectors that sharethat common wiring from operating.

Perform this procedure under conditions that areidentical to the conditions that exist when the faultoccurs. Typically, faults with the injector solenoidoccur when the engine is warmed up and/or whenthe engine is under vibration (heavy loads).

These engines have Electronic Unit Injectors (EUI).The ECM sends a pulse to each injector solenoid.The pulse is sent at the correct time and at the correctduration for a given engine load and speed. Thesolenoid is mounted on top of the fuel injector body.

If an open circuit is detected in the solenoid circuit,a diagnostic code is generated. The ECM continuesto try to fire the injector. If a short circuit is detected,a diagnostic code is generated. The ECM willperiodically try to fire the injector. If the short circuitremains, this sequence of events will be repeateduntil the fault is corrected.

“Injector Solenoid Test”

Use the “Injector Solenoid Test” in the electronicservice tool to aid in diagnosing an open circuit ora short circuit diagnostic code while the engine isnot running. The “Injector Solenoid Test” will send asignal to each solenoid. The electronic service toolwill indicate the status of the solenoid as OK, Open,or Short.

Diagnostic Trouble Codes for the Circuit for the Throttle Switch

J1939Code

Description Notes

29-2 Accelerator Pedal Position 2 : Erratic,Intermittent or Incorrect

91-2 Accelerator Pedal Position 1 : Erratic,Intermittent or Incorrect

The Electronic Control Module (ECM) detects the following condition:

There is an invalid combination of positions for the multi-position switches.

If equipped, the warning light will come on. The ECM will log thediagnostic code.

If the application is equipped with two throttles, theengine will use the second throttle until the fault isrepaired.

If a second throttle is not installed or if the secondthrottle has a fault, the following conditions will occur:

• The engine will default to the limp home speed.

• If the engine speed is higher than the limp homespeed, the engine will decelerate to the limp homespeed.

• If the engine speed is lower than the limp homespeed, the engine speed will remain at the currentspeed.

• The engine will remain at this speed while thediagnostic code remains active.

• All inputs from the faulty throttle are ignored by theECM until the fault is repaired.

• All inputs from the repaired throttle will be ignoredby the ECM until the keyswitch has been cycled.

Check that the software configuration in the ECM iscorrect for a multi-position throttle .

If the engine has an analog throttle with an IdleValidation Switch (IVS), then refer to Troubleshooting,“Idle Validation Switch Circuit - Test”.

The throttle switch provides the operator with theability to select the desired engine speed. The throttleswitch configuration may be selected between 0 to 4switches. A multi-position rotary switch may be used.

The throttle switch is typically connected to the fourthrottle inputs of the ECM. Each position generatesa specific ON/OFF pattern on the throttle inputs. Adiagnostic code is generated if a pattern that doesnot correspond with any of the switch positions isdetected.

Once a diagnostic code is generated, the ECMignores the throttle input signals. The desired enginespeed is set to low idle if no alternative throttle isdetected.

Voltage at the throttle inputs to the ECM should be13.8 ± 0.5 VDC when the throttle inputs are open.The voltage should be less than 0.5 VDC when thethrottle inputs are closed.

The signal voltage for the position sensor on the exhaust back pressurevalve is greater than 4.8 VDC for 0.1 seconds.

The warning lamp will come on and the ECM will log the diagnostic code.The exhaust back pressure valve will be fully open while the code is active.

5625-4 Exhaust Back PressureRegulator Position : VoltageBelow Normal

The ECM detects the following conditions:

The signal voltage for the position sensor on the exhaust back pressurevalve is less than 0.2 VDC for 0.1 seconds.

The warning lamp will come on and the ECM will log the diagnostic code.The exhaust back pressure valve will be fully open while the code is active.

The following conditions must exist before any of thepreceding codes will become active:

• The ECM has been powered for at least 2 seconds.

• There are no active 3509 codes.

• There are no active 168 codes.

Use this procedure in order to troubleshoot theposition sensors for the following valves:

• NRS valve

• Exhaust back pressure valve

Each position sensor is part of the associated valve.If the following procedure indicates a fault withthe position sensor, then the entire valve must bereplaced.

The following background information is relatedto this procedure:

The troubleshooting procedures for the diagnosticcodes of each position sensor are identical. The 5VDC sensor supply provides power to all 5 VDCsensors. The ECM supplies 5.0 VDC to terminal “1”of each valve connector. The sensor common fromthe ECM connector goes to terminal “2” of eachvalve connector. The sensor supply is output shortcircuit protected. A short circuit to the battery willnot damage the circuit inside the ECM. The signalvoltage from terminal 3 of each valve is supplied tothe appropriate terminal at the P2/J2 ECM connector.

Pull-up Voltage

The ECM continuously outputs a pull-up voltageon the circuit for the sensor signal wire. The ECMuses this pull-up voltage in order to detect an openin the signal circuit. When the ECM detects thepresence of a voltage that is above a threshold on thesignal circuit, the ECM will generate an open circuitdiagnostic code (XXXX-3) for the sensor.

KENR9116-01 297Troubleshooting Section

If the sensor is disconnected at the sensor connector,the presence of pull-up voltage at the sensorconnector indicates that the wires from the sensorconnector to the ECM are not open or shorted toground. If the sensor is disconnected at the sensorconnector, the absence of pull-up voltage at thesensor connector indicates an open in the signal wireor a short to ground. If the sensor is disconnected atthe sensor connector and the voltage at the sensorconnector is different from pull-up voltage, the signalwire is shorted to another wire in the harness.

System Operation Description:

For a 97-15 diagnostic code, refer to Troubleshooting,“Fuel Contains Water” before returning to thisprocedure.

This procedure covers the following diagnostic code:

Table 126

Diagnostic Trouble Code for the Water-in-Fuel Sensor

J1939Code

Description Notes

97-3 Water In Fuel Indicator :Voltage Above Normal

The ECM detects the following conditions:

An open circuit in the Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor circuit.

The ECM has been powered for less than 5 seconds.

The warning lamp will stay on when the “indicator lamp self check” has beencompleted. The ECM will disable the function to detect water in fuel while the codeis active.

Water-in-Fuel Sensor Operation

The WIF sensor is a normally open sensor. Duringnormal operation, there will be no signal sent fromthe WIF sensor to the ECM. If water is detected inthe fuel, the sensor will send a signal to the ECM. Ifthe signal remains constant for 45 seconds, a 97-15diagnostic code will become active. This diagnosticcode can also be caused by a short in the WIFsensor circuit.

Water-in-Fuel Sensor Self Check

When the ignition keyswitch is turned to the ONposition, the switch in the WIF sensor will close for5 seconds. If the ECM does not detect a signal fromthe WIF sensor during this period, a 97-3 diagnosticcode will become active.
