Trouble

Remedy

 

 

Engine will not crank.

Check battery, and replace if necessary.

 

 

 

Check battery connections and tighten if necessary.

 

 

 

Circuit breaker CB10 may be open. CB10 automatically resets when fault is corrected (see Section 9-8

 

or 10-9). Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check engine wiring harness and components.

 

 

 

Check engine wiring harness plug connections.

 

 

 

Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check control relay CR1, control relay CR5, time delay relay

 

TD1, and Engine Control switch S1.

 

 

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 time delay relay TD1, control relay CR5, fuel pump,

 

and fuel solenoid FS1.

 

 

 

Air in fuel system. See engine manual.

 

 

Engine starts, but stops after 30 sec-

temperature is too high (see Section 5-8). Automatic shutdown system is inhibited for 30 seconds after

 

start-up.

 

 

 

Have Factory Authorized Service Agent check time delay relay TD1, and control relay CR5.

 

 

Engine hard to start in cold weather.

Use starting aid switch (see Section 6-1or 7-1).

 

 

 

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 9-1or 10-1).

 

 

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 5-8). Automatic shutdown system is inhibited for 30 seconds after

 

start-up.

 

 

 

See engine manual.

 

 

Engine slowly stopped and cannot be

Check engine air and fuel filters (see Sections 9-4and 10-4, or Sections 9-7and 10-8).

 

 

 

See engine manual.

 

 

Battery discharges between uses.

Turn Engine Control switch off when unit is not running.

 

 

 

Clean top of battery with baking soda and water solution; rinse with clear water.

 

 

 

Recharge or replace battery if necessary.

 

 

 

Periodically recharge battery (approximately every 3 months).
