Trouble

Remedy

 

 

Engine will not crank.

Check battery, and replace if necessary.

 

 

 

Check battery connections and tighten if necessary.

 

 

 

Circuit breaker CB1 may be open. CB1 automatically resets when fault is corrected (see Section 8-9).

 

Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check engine wiring harness and components.

 

 

 

Reset supplementary protector CB2 (see Section 8-9).

 

 

 

Check engine wiring harness plug connections.

 

 

 

Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check Engine Control switch S1, and control relay CR2.

 

 

Engine cranks but does not start.

Check fuel level.

 

 

 

Check battery and replace if necessary. Check engine charging system according to engine manual.

 

 

 

Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check control relay CR1, fuel solenoid FS1, and the fuel

 

pump.

 

 

 

Air in fuel system. See engine manual.

 

 

Engine hard to start in cold weather.

Use Preheat switch (see Section 6-1).

 

 

 

Keep battery in good condition. Store battery in warm area off cold surface.

 

 

 

Use fuel formulated for cold weather (diesel fuel can gel in cold weather). Contact local fuel supplier for

 

fuel information.

 

 

 

Use correct grade oil for cold weather (see Section 8-2).

 

 

 

Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check Preheat switch S4, control relay CR3, and the glow

 

plug.

 

 

Engine suddenly stops.

Check oil and coolant levels. Automatic shutdown system stops engine if oil pressure is too low or coolant

 

temperature is too high (see Section 5-6).

 

 

 

Circuit breaker CB1 may be open. CB1 automatically resets when fault is corrected (see Section 8-9).

 

Reset supplementary protector CB2 (see Section 8-9). Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check

 

engine alternator, engine harness, throttle solenoid TS1, fuel solenoid FS1, and the fuel pump.

 

 

 

Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check Engine Control switch S1, control relay CR1, inte-

 

grated rectifier SR2, fuel solenoid FS1, and the fuel pump.

 

 

 

See engine manual.
