An accident can often be avoided by recognizing potentially hazardous situations before an accident occurs. A person must be alert to potential hazards. This person should also have the necessary training, skills and tools to perform these functions properly. Improper operation, lubrication, maintenance or repair of this product can be dangerous and could result in injury or death. Do not operate or perform any lubrication, maintenance or repair on this product, until you have read and understood the operation, lubrication, maintenance and repair information. Safety precautions and warnings are provided in this manual and on the product. If these hazard warnings are not heeded, bodily injury or death could occur to you or to other persons. The hazards are identified by the “Safety Alert Symbol” and followed by a “Signal Word” such as “DANGER”, “WARNING” or “CAUTION”. The Safety Alert “WARNING” label is shown below.
The meaning of this safety alert symbol is as follows: Attention! Become Alert! Your Safety is Involved. The message that appears under the warning explains the hazard and can be either written or pictorially presented. Operations that may cause product damage are identified by “NOTICE” labels on the product and in this publication. Caterpillar cannot anticipate every possible circumstance that might involve a potential hazard. The warnings in this publication and on the product are, therefore, not all inclusive. If a tool, procedure, work method or operating technique that is not specifically recommended by Caterpillar is used, you must satisfy yourself that it is safe for you and for others. You should also ensure that the product will not be damaged or be made unsafe by the operation, lubrication, maintenance or repair procedures that you choose. The information, specifications, and illustrations in this publication are on the basis of information that was available at the time that the publication was written. The specifications, torques, pressures, measurements, adjustments, illustrations, and other items can change at any time. These changes can affect the service that is given to the product. Obtain the complete and most current information before you start any job. Caterpillar dealers have the most current information available.
When replacement parts are required for this product Caterpillar recommends using Caterpillar replacement parts or parts with equivalent specifications including, but not limited to, physical dimensions, type, strength and material.

System Overview SMCS Code: 1901-038
Introduction The Electronic Control Module (ECM) controls most of the functions of the engine. The module is an environmentally sealed unit that is mounted in a terminal box on the engine. The ECM monitors various inputs from sensors in order to activate relays, solenoids, etc at the appropriate levels. The ECM supports the following five primary functions:
• Engine speed governing • Ignition control • Air/Fuel ratio control • Start/Stop sequencing • Engine monitoring and protection
Engine Speed Governing The ECM maintains the desired engine speed by controlling the actuator for the throttle. The actuator is located at the flange of the air inlet manifold. The actuator is electrically controlled and hydraulically actuated. A high pressure pump provides hydraulic pressure with oil from a system that is separate from the engine oil. The high pressure oil supply is monitored by a pressure switch that generates an event code if the pressure drops below an acceptable level. The throttle position is controlled in open loop mode: there is no feedback from the throttle position. The ECM issues a throttle command that represents a percent of the level of electrical current. The output can be viewed on the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET). The actual throttle position can be viewed on a mechanical pointer that is built into the mechanism of the throttle.
Desired engine speed is determined by the status of the idle/rated switch, the desired speed input (analog voltage or 4 to 20 mA), and parameters such as maximum engine high idle speed that are programmed into the software. Actual engine speed is detected via a signal from the speed/timing sensor. Parameters such as governor gain can be programmed with Cat ET.
Ignition Control The ECM provides variable ignition timing that is sensitive to detonation. Each cylinder has an ignition transformer that is located under the valve cover for the cylinder. To initiate combustion, the ECM sends a pulse of approximately 100 volts to the primary coil of each ignition transformer at the appropriate time and for the appropriate duration. The transformers step up the voltage in order to create a spark across the spark plug electrode. Detonation sensors monitor the engine for excessive detonation. The G3516B Engine has eight detonation sensors. Each sensor monitors two adjacent cylinders. The sensors generate data on vibration that is processed by the ECM in order to determine detonation levels. If detonation reaches an unacceptable level, the ECM retards the ignition timing of the affected cylinder or cylinders. If retarding the timing does not limit detonation to an acceptable level, the ECM shuts down the engine. The ECM provides extensive diagnostics for the ignition system. The ECM also provides a switch for ignition timing in order to allow operation with alternate fuels such as propane that require a timing offset.
Air/Fuel Ratio Control The ECM provides control of the air/fuel mixture for performance and efficiency at low emission levels. The system consists of an electronic fuel metering valve, an oxygen sensor, output drivers in the ECM, and maps in the ECM. The control compensates for changes in the BTU of the fuel in order to maintain desired emission levels. Note: The 50 Hz applications and the 60 Hz applications use different fuel metering valves. The following steps describe the basic operation: 1. The ECM determines the desired flow rates for the air and the fuel. The flow rates are determined by these factors:
• Desired engine speed • Actual engine speed
10 Troubleshooting Section
• Calculated engine load 2. The maps of the data for the desired flow of air and fuel are sent in the form of a PWM signal to the fuel metering valve. 3. The ECM monitors the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas via the oxygen sensor. The ECM adjusts the signal for the flow of air and fuel in order to achieve the desired level of exhaust oxygen.
Problems with engine operation such as low oil pressure produce an event code. The ECM can issue a warning, a derating, or a shutdown. This depends on the severity of the condition. For more information, see Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting With An Event Code”. Problems with the electronic system such as an open circuit produce a diagnostic code. For more information, see Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting With A Diagnostic Code”.
This process is repeated continuously during engine operation.
Start/Stop Sequencing
i01727395
Self-Diagnostics SMCS Code: 1901-038
The ECM contains the logic and the outputs for control of engine prelubrication, starting, and shutdown. The customer programmable logic responds to signals from the following components: engine control switch, emergency stop switch, remote start switch, data link, and other inputs. To control the engine at the appropriate times, the ECM provides +Battery voltage to the relays for the prelube pump, the starting motor, and the gas shutoff valve. When the programmable logic determines that the prelubrication function is necessary, the ECM supplies +Battery voltage to the relay for the prelube pump. The system may also be programmed to perform a postlube cycle during engine shutdown in order to ensure that the turbocharger has adequate lubrication during shutdown. When the programmable logic determines that it is necessary to crank the engine, the ECM supplies +Battery voltage to the relay for the starting motor. The ECM removes the voltage when the programmable crank terminate speed is reached or when a programmable cycle crank time has expired. The engine has an energize-to-run type of gas shutoff valve. When the programmable logic determines that fuel is required to start the engine or to run the engine, the ECM supplies +Battery voltage to the valve. For more information on programmable parameters, see Troubleshooting, “Programming Parameters”.
Engine Monitoring and Protection The ECM monitors both the engine operation and the electronic system.
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) has the ability to detect problems with the electronic system and with engine operation. When a problem is detected, a code is generated. An alarm may also be generated. There are two types of codes:
• Diagnostic • Event Diagnostic Code – When a problem with the electronic system is detected, the ECM generates a diagnostic code. This indicates the specific problem with the circuitry. Diagnostic codes can have two different states:
• Active • Logged Active Code – An active diagnostic code indicates that an active problem has been detected. Active codes require immediate attention. Always service active codes prior to servicing logged codes. Logged Code – Every generated code is stored in the permanent memory of the ECM. The codes are logged. Event Code – An event code is generated by the detection of an abnormal engine operating condition. For example, an event code will be generated if the oil pressure is too low. In this case, the event code indicates the symptom of a problem.
11 Troubleshooting Section
Logged codes may not indicate that a repair is needed. The problem may have been temporary. The problem may have been resolved since the logging of the code. If the system is powered, it is possible to generate an active diagnostic code whenever a component is disconnected. When the component is reconnected, the code is no longer active. Logged codes may be useful to help troubleshoot intermittent problems. Logged codes can also be used to review the performance of the engine and the electronic system. i01756530

In addition to the color, the entire length of each wire is stamped with a specific circuit number that is repeated on every 25 mm (1 inch) of the wire. The actual wires are identified on the schematic. For example, a code of J011-RD on the schematic identifies a red wire that is stamped with the circuit number J011. This particular wire is the engine harness wire for the primary signal of the transformer in the number one cylinder. For all Caterpillar engine harnesses with electronic ignition systems, the code of “J011-RD” identifies the wire for the primary signal of the transformer in the number one cylinder.
The schematic also identifies the size of the wire. The size or gauge of the wire is called the American Wire Gauge (AWG). Unless the schematic specifies a different size, you may assume that the wire is 16 AWG.

(14) The humidity sensor (if equipped) is located on the inlet air piping or the inside of the air cleaner housing. (15) Atmospheric pressure sensor (if equipped)
The functions of the sensors are described below. Pressure switch for the coolant pump (inlet) (1) – A pressure switch is located at the inlet for the engine jacket water. If the inlet pressure is too high, the switch will activate a shutdown. To observe the status of the switch, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to view the “Engine Coolant Pump Pressure” parameter. The contacts of the switch are between pin B and pin C. The contact opens at 462 ± 41 kPa (67 ± 6 psi). Closure of the contact is required in order for the engine to run. Detonation sensors (2) – The detonation sensors monitor the engine for mechanical engine vibrations. Each sensor monitors two cylinders. The sensor produces a voltage signal that is proportional to the engine detonation. This information is processed by the electronic control module in order to determine detonation levels. To eliminate detonation, the electronic control module retards the timing of the cylinder, if necessary. If excessive detonation continues, the electronic control module will shut down the engine. To observe the value of the output of the sensors, use Cat ET to view the “Cylinder #X Detonation Level”. The “X” is the number for the particular cylinder.
Electrohydraulic actuator’s pressure switch (3) – The electrohydraulic actuator has a pressure switch for the oil supply. Insufficient oil pressure will activate an engine shutdown. To observe the status of the switch, use Cat ET to view the “Hydrax Pressure Switch Status”. The contacts of the switch are between pin A and pin B. The contact closes at a maximum of 1206 kPa (175 psi). The contact opens at 700 ± 103 kPa (102 ± 15 psi). Closure of the contact is required in order for the engine to run. Inlet air temperature sensor (4) – A sensor for monitoring the air inlet temperature is located in the elbow before the number one cylinder head. Excessive inlet air temperature can activate an alarm, a derating, or a shutdown during high load or low load operation. The trip points for activation can be programmed with Cat ET. To observe the value of the output of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Inlet Air Temperature” parameter. The sensor can measure a range of −40 to 120 C (−40 to 248 F).
16 Troubleshooting Section
Engine coolant temperature sensor (5) – The temperature sensor is located in the water temperature regulator housing. To monitor the coolant temperature, the element must be in contact with the coolant. If overheating occurs due to low coolant level or no coolant, the sensor will not function properly. A high coolant temperature will activate an alarm, a derating, or a shutdown. A low coolant temperature will only activate an alarm. The trip points for the activation can be programmed with Cat ET. The engine can be restarted after a shutdown due to high engine coolant temperature. However, another shutdown will occur after one minute if the temperature remains high. To observe the value of the output of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Engine Coolant Temperature” parameter. The sensor can measure a range of −40 to 150 C (−40 to 302 F). Oil pressure sensors (6) and (7) – The engine oil pressure is measured before the oil filters and after the oil filters. An alarm or a shutdown can be activated by any of the following occurrences: low filtered oil pressure, low oil filter differential pressure, and high oil filter differential pressure. The trip point for the activation of an alarm or a shutdown for oil filter differential pressure can be programmed with Cat ET. To observe the value of the output of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Engine Oil Pressure” or the “Unfiltered Engine Oil Pressure” parameter. Both of the sensors measure pressure in the range of 0 to 1135 kPa (0 to 165 psi). Engine coolant pressure sensor (8) – A pressure switch is located at the outlet for the engine jacket water. If the outlet pressure is too low, the electronic control module will activate a shutdown. The trip point is calculated according to the equation in Table 2. The trip point for the shutdown depends on the value of the signal from the engine coolant temperature sensor. Table 2

X
T is the temperature of the jacket water in Degree Celsius. X is the trip point for the shutdown in kPa.
To convert kPa to psi, divide the kPa by 6.89. To observe the value of the output of the engine coolant pressure sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Engine Coolant Pressure (abs)” parameter. The sensor measures pressure in the range of 0 to 472 kPa (0 to 69 psi). The measured pressure is absolute.
Oxygen sensor (9) and oxygen buffer (12) – The oxygen sensor and the oxygen buffer generate a signal that is proportional to the percent of oxygen in the exhaust manifold. The electronic control module uses the signal to adjust for variation of fuel energy content. The signal is also used for adjusting the air/fuel ratio in order to achieve the level of emissions that is desired. To observe the output value of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Actual Oxygen” parameter. Inlet air pressure sensor (10) – The sensor for inlet air pressure is connected to the air inlet manifold. The sensor monitors the absolute manifold air pressure. This is the atmospheric pressure plus the gauge pressure. The information is used by the electronic control module to determine the engine load. To observe the output value of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Inlet Manifold Air Pressure (abs)” parameter. The sensor measures pressure in the range of 20 to 339 kPa (3 to 49 psi). Engine oil temperature sensor (11) – An oil temperature sensor measures the engine oil temperature. A high oil temperature will activate an alarm or a shutdown. The trip points can be programmed with Cat ET. The electronic control module compares the oil temperature to the coolant temperature. An engine oil temperature that is significantly high in comparison to a lower coolant temperature will activate an alarm or a shutdown. To observe the output value of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Engine Oil Temperature” parameter. The sensor measures temperature in the range of −40 to 120 C (−40 to 248 F). Speed/timing sensor (13) – The engine speed/timing sensor is located on the rear end of the left camshaft. The engine speed/timing sensor provides accurate information to the electronic control module about the position of the crankshaft and the engine rpm. The electronic control module uses the position of the crankshaft in order to determine ignition timing. If an overspeed occurs, the electronic control module shuts down the engine. The speed for the trip point of the shutdown can be programmed with Cat ET. To observe the engine speed in rpm, use Cat ET to view the “Engine Speed” parameter. Humidity Sensor (14) – Refer to Illustration 5 for the location of the humidity sensor (if equipped). The humidity sensor generates a digital signal that is proportional to the specific humidity of the inlet air. The signal is used for adjusting the air/fuel ratio in order to achieve the level of emissions that is desired. To observe the output value of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Specific Humidity” parameter.
17 Troubleshooting Section
Exhaust Back Pressure(15) – The sensor for atmospheric pressure (if equipped) is located near the exhaust duct above the turbochargers. The sensor monitors the atmospheric pressure. The electronic control module uses the signal to adjust the air/fuel ratio in order to achieve the level of emissions that is desired. To observe the output value of the sensor, use Cat ET to view the “Exhaust Back Pressure” parameter.
Thermocouples Thermocouples provide information to the Integrated Temperature Sensing Module (ITSM). The information is used to monitor engine operation. The thermocouples also enable alarms and shutoffs to be activated.

Cylinder Exhaust Temperature (16) – Thermocouples measure the exhaust temperatures from the exhaust port of each cylinder. An alarm or a shutdown is activated if the exhaust temperature from any cylinder is too high or if the exhaust temperature from any cylinder deviates excessively from the average temperature of all of the cylinders. The trip points can be programmed with Cat ET. To observe the value of the output of the thermocouples, use Cat ET to view the “Cylinder #X Exhaust Port”. The “X” is the number for the particular cylinder. The thermocouples measure temperature in the range of 0 to 600 C ± 10 C (32 to 1112 F ± 18 F).
Exhaust Inlet to the Turbocharger Turbine (17) – A thermocouple is mounted at the inlet for the exhaust gas of each turbocharger turbine. An alarm or a shutdown is activated if the temperature of the exhaust to the turbine is too high or too low. The trip points can be programmed with Cat ET. To observe the value of the output of the thermocouples, use Cat ET to view the “Left Bank Turbine Inlet Temp” or the “Right Bank Turbine Inlet Temp”. The thermocouples measure temperature in the range of 0 to 600 C ± 10 C (32 to 1112 F ± 18 F).

Monitoring Parameters “Low System Voltage” The trip point for this parameter is set at the factory. The trip point cannot be changed. If the system voltage reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning or a shutdown.
“High Engine Coolant Temperature” If the engine coolant temperature reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning, a derating, or a shutdown.
“Low Engine Coolant Temperature” If the engine coolant temperature reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning.
“Engine Overspeed” If the engine speed reaches the trip point, the ECM will activate an engine shutdown. A typical trip point is 118 percent of the engine’s rated speed.
“High Engine Oil Temperature” If the engine oil temperature reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning or a shutdown.
“High Oil Filter Differential Pressure”
“High Jacket Water to the Engine Oil Temperature Differential” If the differential temperature of the jacket water and the engine oil reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning or a shutdown.
“Low Gas Fuel Differential Pressure” If the fuel differential pressure reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning.
“High Gas Fuel Differential Pressure” If the fuel differential pressure reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning.
“High System Voltage” The trip point for this parameter is set at the factory. The trip point cannot be changed. If the system voltage reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning or a shutdown.
Trip Points of the Engine Load for High Inlet Air Temperature This feature provides a trip point between high engine load and low engine load. The trip point is used for events that involve high inlet air temperature. The trip point for the events is based on the engine load. The possible responses of the system include warning, derating, and shutdown.
The trip point for this parameter is set at the factory. The trip point cannot be changed. The parameter cannot be turned off. The parameter is always ON. If the engine oil filter differential pressure reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning or a shutdown.
If the load is greater than the trip point, the trip point for the “High Inlet Air Temperature at High Engine Load” event is used for the logging of the high inlet air temperature.
“Low Oil Filter Differential Pressure”
If the load is less than the trip point, the trip point for the “High Inlet Air Temperature at Low Engine Load” event is used for the logging of the high inlet air temperature.
The trip point for this parameter is set at the factory. The trip point cannot be changed. The parameter cannot be turned off. The parameter is always ON. If the engine oil filter differential pressure reaches to the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning or a shutdown.
“High Fuel Temperature” If the engine oil temperature reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning.
“Low Fuel Pressure” If the fuel pressure reaches the trip point, the ECM will generate a warning.
“High Inlet Air Temperature at Low Engine Load” The “Service/Configuration” screen of Cat ET defines the “High Inlet Air Temp Engine Load Set Point”. The ECM can activate a warning, a derating, or a shutdown if the inlet air temperature reaches the trip point during the low load operation that is defined.
23 Troubleshooting Section
“High Inlet Air Temperature at High Engine Load” The “Service/Configuration” screen of Cat ET defines the “High Inlet Air Temp Engine Load Set Point”. The ECM can activate a warning, a derating, or a shutdown if the inlet air temperature reaches the trip point during the high load operation that is defined.
“High Fuel Pressure” The ECM will activate a warning if the fuel pressure reaches the trip point.
Engine Power Derating The ECM can automatically derate the engine power in order to protect the engine from undesirable operating conditions. The ECM can derate the engine power in response to the following operating conditions:
• E015 High Engine Coolant Temperature • E025 High Inlet Air Temperature at Low Engine Load
• E025 High Inlet Air Temperature at High Engine Load
• E242 Engine Overload The derating for the engine coolant and the inlet air temperatures can be programmed to be ON or OFF with Cat ET. The default setting for the derating is OFF. The temperature for the trip point and the delay time are also programmable. The range for the temperature for the trip point and the delay time is limited. If one of these three deratings is activated, the ECM will reduce the desired engine speed by 0.1 percent per each second. After the condition which activated the derating is gone, the ECM will increase desired engine speed by 0.1 percent per each second. The derating is deactivated when a derating of 0 percent is achieved and the original desired engine speed is restored. For example, if the desired engine speed is 1507 rpm and a derating is activated, the desired engine speed will be reduced to 1477 rpm in 20 seconds. If the condition that activated the derating is gone after 20 seconds, the desired engine speed will return to 1507 rpm in 20 seconds. In this example, the incident lasted for 40 seconds. The derating for “Engine Overload” is programmed to be ON at the factory. This derating cannot be adjusted via Cat ET. The default value for the derating is 110 percent of the rated load.
If more than one derating is active, the ECM will automatically use the largest value that is programmed for a derating of the desired engine speed. When a derating of 0 percent is achieved, all of the deratings are deactivated.
Default Settings of the Monitoring System Examples of the default settings for the parameters are listed in Table 4. The values may have changed. Use the Cat ET to determine the programming for your engine. Many of the items can be reprogrammed in order to accommodate the requirements of individual sites.

Separate timers are used in the ECM for each response that is associated with a parameter. If a trip point is reached, the timer for that event is started. For example, the warning for “High Engine Coolant Temperature E017 (1)” can be set to 95 C with a five second delay. The timer starts counting if the coolant temperature reaches 95 C. If the temperature is not reduced to less than 95 C within five seconds, the event becomes active and the event is logged.
Conditions for Parameters Some of the programmable parameters are dependent on the status of an ECM output before the parameters are allowed to function. Some of the parameters are allowed to function after the crank terminate relay has been energized for more than 30 seconds. Other parameters are allowed to function after the output for the fuel control relay is energized. Some parameters are not dependent upon any conditions. The conditions are designed to eliminate false events during start-up if the customer has programmed a delay time to zero. The conditions are listed in Table 5. Table 5

Use care when you program the trip points and the delay times. Ensure that the response of the ECM is correct for the application. The monitoring system will accept any settings within the ranges.
26 Troubleshooting Section
If the trip point for a shutdown is programmed to activate before the trip point for a warning, the engine will shut down and the warning will not be activated.
Programmable Parameters of the Integrated Temperature Sensing Module The Integrated Temperature Sensing Module (ITSM) monitors the temperatures of the cylinder exhaust ports, the inlets of the turbocharger turbine, and the outlets of the turbocharger turbines. If a temperature exceeds an acceptable range, the ITSM can initiate a “WARNING” or “SHUTDOWN”. Both of the responses are available for all of the parameters. Use Cat ET to perform the following activities:
• Select the available responses. • Program the level for monitoring. • Program delay times for each response. Note: To initiate the responses, the ITSM sends commands to the ECM via the Cat Data Link. If the connection between the ITSM and the ECM is not correct, the ITSM cannot initiate any response. The default settings for the parameters are programmed at the factory. To accommodate unique applications and sites, the parameters may be reprogrammed with Cat ET. The screens of Cat ET provide guidance for changing trip points. Table 6 lists default examples of the values for the parameters. However, the values may have changed. Use Cat ET to determine the programming for your engine. The items can be reprogrammed in order to accommodate the requirements of individual sites. Use care when you program the trip points and the delay times. Ensure that the response of the ITSM is correct for the application. The monitoring system will accept any setting within the ranges.

Programming Parameters i01726978
Programming Parameters SMCS Code: 1901-038 Programmable parameters enable the engine to be configured in order to meet the requirements of the application. The system configuration parameters must be programmed when the application is installed. Perform this programming before the initial engine start-up. Data from a gas analysis and data on engine performance are required in order to determine the correct settings for the ignition timing and the exhaust oxygen. Incorrect programming of parameters may lead to complaints about performance and/or to engine damage. Programmable parameters can be classified into the following types: engine identification, timing control, air/fuel ratio control, speed control, and start/stop control. If the Electronic Control Module (ECM) is replaced, the appropriate parameters must be copied from the old ECM. This can be done with the “Copy Configuration” feature of the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET). Alternatively, the settings can be recorded on paper and then programmed into the new module. NOTICE Changing the parameters during engine operation can cause the engine to operate erratically. This can cause engine damage. Only change the settings of the parameters when the engine is STOPPED.
i01726982
Customer Passwords SMCS Code: 1901 Certain monitoring system parameters and system configuration parameters may be protected with customer passwords. Use of the passwords helps to prevent free access to the modification of the parameters. If the customer passwords are not programmed, all of the parameters are unprotected.
The customer passwords can be changed, if necessary. The customer passwords or a factory password is needed in order to change the customer passwords. If the customer passwords are forgotten, factory passwords can be acquired from Caterpillar. After the customer passwords are entered, the passwords are required in order to change certain parameters. Once the passwords are entered successfully, the passwords are not requested again until another screen is accessed or the data link is interrupted. This feature is enabled by programming two customer passwords. Use the following procedure to program the passwords. The same procedure is used to change the passwords: 1. Access the “Service/Configuration” screen of the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET). 2. Highlight the “Customer Password #1” parameter. Click on the “Change” button in the lower right corner of the screen. Note: Be sure to record the customer passwords. Store the passwords securely. The passwords can have a maximum of eight characters. Alphanumeric characters may be used. The passwords are case sensitive. 3. Enter the password in the “Change Parameter Value” dialog box and click on the “OK” button. 4. Highlight the “Customer Password #2” parameter. Click on the “Change” button in the lower right corner of the screen. 5. Enter the password in the “Change Parameter Value” dialog box and click on the “OK” button. The passwords are now programmed into the memory of the Electronic Control Module (ECM). Make a copy of Table 7 and record your passwords. Store the passwords securely. Table 7

Flash Programming SMCS Code: 1901-038 Software is located in the flash memory of the Electronic Control Module (ECM) and the Integrated Temperature Sensing Module (ITSM). The Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) can be used to flash new software into the ECM or the ITSM. This is the only method for updating the software. The module that contains the software cannot be physically removed from the ECM. This eliminates the risk of moisture entry into the ECM due to improper seal installation. The flash is accomplished by transferring the data from Cat ET to the module via data link wiring. The Software, JERD2124 or Software, JERD2129 is used.
30 Troubleshooting Section

“kW Meter Offset”
Air/Fuel Ratio Control
This parameter is unavailable at the time of publication.
“Fuel Quality”
“kW Meter kW/Volt” This parameter is unavailable at the time of publication.
Timing Control “First Desired Timing” The “First Desired Timing” is determined with the methane number of the primary fuel that is used. Use the Engine Performance Sheet, “Fuel Usage Guide”. The ECM selects the “First Desired Timing” when the switch for the selection of the timing is in the open position.
This parameter is programmed to the Lower Heating Value (LHV) of the primary fuel. The fuel ratio control of the ECM will compensate for some inaccuracy in this setting. The ECM assumes a corrected value that is equal to the customer programmed “Fuel Energy Content” that is multiplied by the “Fuel Correction Factor”. This factor is displayed on the Cat ET screen. An event code is generated if the “Fuel Correction Factor” exceeds a limit that is programmed at the factory. The event code will indicate the need to reprogram this value.
“Second Desired Timing”
The ECM reverts to the customer programmed “Fuel Energy Content” during start-up. The ECM also reverts to the customer programmed “Fuel Energy Content” when a problem is detected in the oxygen sensor’s circuit. An accurate customer programmed “Fuel Energy Content” value that is determined by a laboratory is recommended.
The “Second Desired Timing” is determined with the methane number of the alternate fuel that is used and the Engine Performance Sheet, “Fuel Usage Guide”. The gas engine’s ECM selects the “Second Desired Timing” when the timing selection switch is in the closed position. If an alternate fuel is not used, enter the same timing that was entered in the “First Desired Timing”.
The “Fuel Quality” parameter can be used to change the air/fuel ratio when the engine is not operating in “Oxygen Feedback” mode. The operation in “Oxygen Feedback” is determined by the engine’s rating, the application, and the load. Normally, the engine does not operate in “Oxygen Feedback” mode when the load is between 0 percent and up to 25 or 40 percent load.
“Desired Timing”
The engine will not operate in “Oxygen Feedback” when the “Oxygen Feedback Enable Status” parameter is disabled. The operation of the engine will not change if the “Fuel Quality” parameter is changed and the “Oxygen Feedback Enable Status” is enabled. The “Fuel Correction Factor” will automatically compensate.
The “Desired Timing” parameter allows the customer to electronically program the timing of the ignition spark of the electronic system in order to meet the needs for specific applications and specific installations. The desired timing is programmed with Cat ET. The desired timing value can be changed while the engine is running or while the engine is stopped. The value that is entered for the desired timing is the ignition timing when the engine is operating at rated speed and at full load. Note: The actual ignition timing at a given instance may vary from the desired timing value. This variance is due to variations in the engine speed or the detonation. The range for programming the desired timing is 0 to 40 degrees before the top center (TC) position.
“Gas Specific Gravity” The value for the fuel metering valve requires an input for the “Gas Specific Gravity” in order to precisely meter the air/fuel ratio. The “Gas Specific Gravity” can be obtained by a gas analysis of the fuel.
33 Troubleshooting Section
“Desired Oxygen at Full Load”
Speed Control
Program the “Desired Oxygen at Full Load” parameter to the percent of exhaust oxygen that is stated in the Engine Performance Sheet for your application. This parameter is used to trim the oxygen map that is preprogrammed in the gas engine’s ECM at the factory. If the measured exhaust oxygen or the NOX emissions are not the required value, increase the “Desired Oxygen at Full Load” parameter in order to lean the engine or decrease the “Desired Oxygen at Full Load” parameter in order to richen the fuel mixture.
“Low Idle Speed”
“Oxygen Feedback Enable Status” The “Oxygen Feedback Enable Status” can be set to “Enable” or “Disable”. This feature allows the system for the fuel correction factor to be disabled in order to troubleshoot. For example, the disabling of this feature can help determine whether the air/fuel ratio control is the cause of instability. If an exhaust oxygen sensor fails, this parameter can be set to “Disable” in order to allow the engine to run in the open loop mode until a new sensor is obtained. An emissions analyzer must be used to verify the emissions level. The “Fuel Quality” parameter must be adjusted in order to adjust the air/fuel mixture. Note: Do not operate an engine that is unattended in the open loop mode if the fuel has an LHV that is changing. The engine risks a shutdown due to lean misfire or detonation.
“Air/Fuel Ratio Proportional Gain” The “Air/Fuel Ratio Proportional Gain” determines the response of the fuel metering valve to the magnitude of error for the fuel ratio. The factory default setting is 0. This value should not require adjustment. If problems occur, this is one of the last parameters that should be adjusted. The adjustable range is −50 to +50. Negative values reduce the magnitude and positive values increase the magnitude.
“Air/Fuel Ratio Integral Gain” The “Air/Fuel Ratio Integral Gain” determines the response of the fuel metering valve to the error that is accumulated over time for the air/fuel ratio. The factory default setting is 0. This value should not require adjustment. If problems occur, this is one of the last parameters that should be adjusted. The adjustable range is −50 to +50. Negative values reduce the magnitude and positive values increase the magnitude.
Program this parameter to the desired low idle rpm. The low idle rpm can be programmed from 500 to 1100 rpm.
“Minimum Engine High Idle Speed” Program this parameter to the desired minimum high idle rpm. The actual high idle speed is regulated by the desired speed input. The regulation is linear in proportion to the input. An input of 0 percent results in the minimum high idle rpm and an input of 100 percent results in the maximum high idle rpm.
“Maximum Engine High Idle Speed” Program this parameter to the desired maximum high idle rpm. The actual high idle speed is regulated by the desired speed input. The regulation is linear in proportion to the input. An input of 0 percent results in the minimum high idle rpm and an input of 100 percent results in the maximum high idle rpm.
Speed Selection The desired speed operates at low idle speed or high idle speed. The speed is selected by the position of the idle/rated switch and by the status of the engine oil pressure. If the switch is in the idle position, the ECM will always select the low idle speed. If the engine oil pressure is less than the trip point for the low oil pressure warning, the ECM will always select low idle speed regardless of the position of the idle/rated switch. If the oil pressure is greater than the trip point for the low oil pressure warning and the switch is in the rated position, the ECM will select the high idle speed.
“Engine Accel. Rate” This parameter controls the rate for engine response to a change in the desired engine speed. For example, the engine can be programmed to accelerate at a rate of 50 rpm per second when the “Idle/Rated” switch is turned to the “Rated” position.
“Desired Speed Input Configuration” The ECM reads the desired engine speed from a throttle position sensor. The parameter “Desired Speed Input Configuration” will determine the type of signal from the throttle position sensor. The output signal from the throttle position sensor can be either 0 to 5 VDC or 4 to 20 mA.
34 Troubleshooting Section
Note: Do not select “PWM” for the desired speed input. The ECM is not configured to accept a pulse width modulated signal for input of the desired engine speed.
“Governor Type Setting” The “Governor Type Setting” parameter can be set to “Isochronous Mode” or to “Droop Mode”. This setting is dependent upon the application of the engine. The status of the “Governor Type Setting” can be observed on the “Status Group 5 Governor Type Setting” on Cat ET. There are two methods for selecting the setting. For some engines, the ECM is programmed to read the status of terminal J1-13. If the terminal is unconnected, the governor is set to “Isochronous Mode”. If the terminal is grounded, the governor is set to “Droop Mode”. To set the governor to “Droop Mode”, fabricate a jumper wire with Deutsch connectors on both ends. Connect one end to terminal J1-13 and connect the other end to terminal J1-31 (return). For other engines, the configuration parameter is programmed with Cat ET.
“Governor Proportional Gain” Note: The default values that are programmed into the ECM for the governor gain settings should be sufficient for most applications. If you have a problem with instability, always investigate other causes before you adjust the governor gain settings. These other conditions can cause instability: diagnostic codes, unstable gas pressure, incorrect throttle angle, and position of the wastegate. The “Governor Proportional Gain” determines the throttle response of the governor to the magnitude of the error in engine speed. This parameter is based on a proportional multiplier. This parameter changes the reaction of the governor when the “Grid Status” parameter is “OFF”. If this gain is adjusted and the “Grid Status” is “ON”, the stability is not affected. To change this parameter, use the “Graph” feature on the “Governor Gain” screen. The graph provides the best method for observing the effects of the adjustment on engine stability. If changing this gain causes no effect, check the “Grid Status” in order to make sure that the status is “OFF”.
“Governor Integral Gain” “Grid Status” The generator’s “Grid Status” parameter can be set to “On” or “Off”. The “Grid Status” can be observed on the “Status Group 5 Grid Status” on Cat ET. The ECM is programmed to read the status of terminal J1-66. If the terminal is unconnected, the “Grid Status” is “Off”. If the terminal is grounded, the “Grid Status” is “On”. To set the “Grid Status” to “On”, fabricate a jumper wire with Deutsch connectors on both ends. Connect one end to terminal J1-66 and connect the other end to terminal J1-31 (return).
Engine Speed Droop This programmable parameter allows precise control of the droop for applications such as load sharing. The “Governor Type Setting” parameter must be set to “Droop”. The droop can be programmed to a value between 0 and 10 percent.
This parameter determines the throttle response of the governor to the error of engine speed that is accumulated over time. This parameter is based on an integral multiplier. This parameter changes the reaction of the governor when the “Grid Status” parameter is “OFF”. If this gain is adjusted and the “Grid Status” is “ON”, the stability is not affected. To change this parameter, use the “Graph” feature on the “Governor Gain” screen. The graph provides the best method for observing the effects of the adjustment on engine stability. If changing this gain causes no effect, check the “Grid Status” in order to make sure that the status is “OFF”.
“Governor Derivative Gain” This parameter changes the governor’s response to the rate of change in the engine speed fluctuation. This parameter is based on a derivative multiplier when the “Grid Status” parameter is “Off”. If the gain is changed and the “Grid Status” is “On”, the stability of the engine will not change. This parameter is changed with the “Graph” feature on the “Governor Gain” screen. The graph provides the best method for observing the effects of the adjustment on engine stability. If changing this gain causes no effect, check the “Grid Status” in order to make sure that the status is “OFF”.
35 Troubleshooting Section
“Auxiliary Proportional Governor Gain 1”
“Crank Terminate Speed”
This parameter changes the governor’s response. This parameter is based on a proportional multiplier when the engine’s “Grid Status” parameter is “On”. If the gain is changed and the “Grid Status” is “Off”, the stability of the engine will not change. This parameter is changed with the “Graph” feature on the “Governor Gain” screen. The graph provides the best method for observing the effects of the adjustment on engine stability. If changing this gain causes no effect, check the “Grid Status” in order to make sure that the status is “OFF”.
The ECM disengages the starting motor when the engine speed exceeds the programmed “Crank Terminate Speed”. The default value of 250 rpm should be sufficient for all applications.
“Engine Purge Cycle Time” The “Engine Purge Cycle Time” is the duration of time for the engine to crank without fuel before the crank cycle. The “Engine Purge Cycle Time” allows any unburned fuel to exit through the exhaust before you fire the engine.
“Auxiliary Integral Governor Gain 1” This parameter changes the governor’s response. This parameter is based on an integral multiplier when the engine’s “Grid Status” parameter is “On”. If the gain is changed and the “Grid Status” is “Off”, the stability of the engine will not change. This parameter is changed with the “Graph” feature on the “Governor Gain” screen. The graph provides the best method for observing the effects of the adjustment on engine stability. If changing this gain causes no effect, check the “Grid Status” in order to make sure that the status is “ON”.
“Auxiliary Derivative Governor Gain 1” This parameter changes the governor’s response. This parameter is based on a derivative multiplier when the engine’s “Grid Status” parameter is “On”. If the gain is changed and the “Grid Status” is “Off”, the stability of the engine will not change. This parameter is changed with the “Graph” feature on the “Governor Gain” screen. The graph provides the best method for observing the effects of the adjustment on engine stability. If changing this gain causes no effect, check the “Grid Status” in order to make sure that the status is “ON”.
“Engine Cooldown Duration” When the ECM receives a “Stop” request, the engine will continue to run in the “Cooldown Mode” for the programmed cooldown period. The “Cooldown Mode” is exited early if a request for an emergency stop is received by the ECM. If the “Engine Cooldown Duration” is programmed to zero, the engine will immediately shut down when the ECM receives a “Stop” request.
“Cycle Crank Time” The “Cycle Crank Time” is the amount of time for activation of the starting motor and the gas shutoff valve for start-up. If the engine does not start within the specified time, the attempt to start is suspended for a “Rest Cycle” that is equal to the “Cycle Crank Time”.
“Engine Overcrank Time” The “Engine Overcrank Time” determines the length of time for the ECM to attempt to start the engine. An event is generated if the engine does not start within this period of time.
Start/Stop Control Parameters
Example Setting
“Driven Equipment Delay Time”
Table 10
Examples of the Settings for Start-up
The ECM provides a switch input for the driven equipment in order to delay engine start-up until the equipment is ready. The ECM will not attempt to start the engine until the switch closes to ground and the prelubrication is complete. An event code is generated if the programmed time for the driven equipment elapses without the closure of the switch. The delay time for the switch must be programmed to 0 in order to disable this feature.
Parameter
Time
“Purge Cycle Time”
10 seconds
“Cycle Crank Time”
30 seconds
“Overcrank Time”
280 seconds
The following sequence will occur if the parameters are programmed according to the example in Table 10: 1. The fuel and the ignition are OFF. The engine will crank for 10 seconds in order to purge gas from the engine via the exhaust system.
36 Troubleshooting Section
2. The fuel and the ignition are enabled. The engine will continue to crank for a maximum of 30 seconds.
Override Parameters
3. If the engine does not start, the ignition, the fuel, and the starting motor are disabled for a 30 second “Rest Cycle”.
This parameter enables the oxygen sensor and the oxygen buffer to be energized when the engine is not running. The override facilitates troubleshooting of the sensor’s electrical circuit.
With this example, a complete cycle is 70 seconds: a purge cycle of 10 seconds, a cycle crank of 30 seconds, and a rest cycle of 30 seconds. The “Overcrank Time” of 280 seconds allows a maximum of four crank cycles.
“Engine Speed Drop Time” After the cooldown period has elapsed, the ECM shuts off the gas shutoff valve. The ignition continues until the engine speed drops below 40 rpm. If the engine rpm does not drop at least 100 rpm within the programmed drop time, the ECM terminates the ignition and the ECM issues an emergency stop.
“Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period” The ECM can energize a prelube pump prior to cranking the engine. The ECM uses a switch input to monitor the engine for acceptable oil pressure. After the prelube is completed, the prelube switch closes. If the ECM does not detect closure of the prelube switch within the programmable “Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period”, the ECM monitors the engine oil pressure sensor. If the oil pressure is insufficient, an event code is activated and the starting sequence is terminated. The range for the “Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period” is 30 to 300 seconds.
“Monitoring and Protection” “High Inlet Air Temp Engine Load Setpoint” The programmable setpoint is a value that separates low engine load from high engine load for events that are activated by high inlet air temperature. An “Engine Load Factor” can be displayed on a Cat ET status screen. If the load factor is less than the setpoint and the inlet air temperature reaches the trip point, a “High Inlet Air Temperature at Low Engine Load” event is activated. If the load factor is greater than the setpoint and the inlet air temperature reaches the trip point, a “High Inlet Air Temperature at High Engine Load” event is activated.

Troubleshooting without a Diagnostic Code
Operator Information Obtain the following information from the operator:
• The occurrence and the time of the occurrence i01305323
Symptoms SMCS Code: 1000-038; 1901-038 Some engine symptoms can be unrelated to the electronic control system. This section is for troubleshooting problems that have symptoms without active diagnostic codes. Conditions such as poor fuel quality or improperly adjusted valves can cause some engine symptoms. For basic troubleshooting of the engine, perform the following steps first in order to diagnose a malfunction. 1. Gather information about the complaint from the operator.
• Determine the conditions for the occurrence. The conditions will include the engine rpm and the load.
• Determine if there are any systems that were installed by the dealer or the customer that could cause the symptom.
• Determine whether any other occurrences happened in addition to the symptom.
Diagnostic Codes and Event Codes Examine the following information regarding any codes:
• The probable cause of the symptom is correlated to the code.
2. Verify that the complaint is not due to normal engine operation. Verify that the complaint is not due to error of the operator. 3. Perform a visual inspection. Inspect the following items:
• Fuel supply
• The code was generated when the symptom occurred.
• Codes that are repeatedly logged • The complaint is not due to normal engine operation.
• Oil level
Other Symptoms
• Oil supply
If other occurrences happened in addition to the symptom, investigate the following conditions:
• Wiring • Connectors 4. Check the diagnostic codes and event codes. Repair any active codes. If these inspections do not reveal any problems, identify the probable causes with the procedures in this manual that best describe the symptoms. See Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting With A Diagnostic Code” or see Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting With Event Codes”. Check each probable cause according to the tests that are recommended. Be sure to check the connectors. This is specially true for problems that are intermittent. See Troubleshooting, “Inspecting Electrical Connectors”. Narrow the probable cause. Consider the operator information, the conditions of operation, and the history of the engine.
• The other occurrences are related to the symptom.
• The symptoms have a probable cause that is common. i01727325
Detonation SMCS Code: 1901-038
Probable Causes • Excessive load • High inlet air temperature • Incorrect air/fuel ratio • Incorrect timing • Faulty circuit for the timing selection switch
42 Troubleshooting Section
• Changes in the fuel quality • The engine speed/timing sensor is not calibrated. • Faulty circuit for the detonation sensor(s) • Excessive deposits in the combustion chamber
Recommended Repairs Excessive Load
Use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to check the ignition timing during engine operation with a load. Compare the timing to the recommended timing in the Engine Performance, “Fuel Usage Guide”. Adjust the ignition timing according to the recommended timing in the Engine Performance, “Fuel Usage Guide”.
Check the Timing Selection Switch
Make sure that the load is not excessive. Reduce the load. If necessary, disengage the driven equipment and test the engine.
Check the position of the timing selection switch. Verify that the switch is in the correct position for the type of gas that is used.
Check the Inlet Manifold Air Pressure
If the position of the switch is correct, troubleshoot the circuit for the switch. Refer to the electrical schematic for the engine.
The calculated engine load increases when the inlet manifold air pressure increases. Measure the inlet manifold air pressure during engine operation with a load. For specific data on the engine, refer to the engine Technical Marketing Information.
Check the Inlet Air Temperature High inlet air temperature can cause detonation. Check the inlet air temperature. Look for the following event codes:
• “E025 (2) High Inlet Air Temperature” (derating) • “E026 (3) High Inlet Air Temperature” (shutdown) • “E027 (1) High Inlet Air Temperature” (warning) Refer to Troubleshooting, “Inlet Air Temperature (High)”.
Air/Fuel Ratio An air/fuel mixture that is too rich will cause detonation. A change in the fuel energy content will change the air/fuel ratio. Obtain a fuel analysis. The fuel supply pressure must be adequate and stable.
Check for Event Codes Regarding the Fuel Check for the following event codes:
• “E229 (1) Fuel Energy Content Setting Low” (warning)

Troubleshoot for the “445-03 Run Relay short to +batt” diagnostic code. Refer to Troubleshooting, “ECM Status Indicator Output”. Make repairs, as needed.
Check the “Crank Terminate Speed” The “Crank Terminate Speed” is a parameter that can be configured. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) disengages the starting motor when the engine exceeds the programmed “Crank Terminate Speed”. The default value of 250 rpm should be sufficient for all applications. If the “Crank Terminate Speed” is too slow, the engine will shut down. Use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to check the programmed “Crank Terminate” speed. Use Cat ET to adjust the “Crank Terminate Speed”, if necessary.
Check the “Cycle Crank Time” The “Cycle Crank Time” is a parameter that can be configured. This parameter determines the time for engagement of the starting motor and the gas shutoff valve during the crank cycle. If the engine does not start within the programmed “Cycle Crank Time”, the attempt to start is suspended for an equal “Rest” cycle.
The “Driven Equipment Delay Time” is a parameter that can be configured. The ECM provides a switch input for the driven equipment in order to delay engine start-up until the driven equipment is ready. The ECM will not attempt to start the engine until the switch input for the driven equipment closes to ground and the prelubrication (if equipped) is complete. An event code is generated if the “Driven Equipment Delay Time” elapses without closure of the switch input. To disable this feature, program the delay time to zero. If the programmed delay time is too long, the engine may not start. Use Cat ET to check the “Driven Equipment Delay Time”. Use Cat ET to program the delay time to a reasonable amount of time. i01727650

Compare the gauge reading with the reading from Cat ET. If the readings from the comparative gauge do not agree approximately with Cat ET, troubleshoot the circuit for the pressure sensor at the jacket water outlet. Refer to Troubleshooting, “PWM Sensor”. If the readings from the comparative gauge agree approximately with Cat ET, check the following components:
• Check the water temperature regulators for proper operation.
Use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to check for the following event codes:
• E123 (1) Jacket Water to Oil Temperature Low (warning)
• E124 (3) Jacket Water to Oil Temperature (shutdown)
• E019 (3) High Engine Oil Temperature (shutdown) • E020 (1) High Engine Oil Temperature (warning) • E038 (1) Low Engine Coolant Temperature (warning) If one or more of the codes are active, troubleshoot the code(s).
Check the Temperature Sensors and/or Circuits Use Cat ET in order to verify that the oil temperature and the engine coolant temperature are reasonable. If one or both of the readings are incorrect, troubleshoot the circuit(s). Refer to Troubleshooting, “Analog Sensor Signal”.

Check the Water Temperature Regulators
• E026 (3) High Inlet Air Temperature (shutdown)
The water temperature regulators should not begin to open until jacket water reaches opening temperature for the regulators. Allow the engine to cool and then start the engine. Check the tube at the outlet for the jacket water. If the tube is warm and normal operating temperature is not achieved yet, a regulator may be stuck open.
• E027 (1) High Inlet Air Temperature (warning)
Check the water temperature regulators according to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, “Testing the Cooling System”. Replace the water temperature regulators, if necessary. i01368006

• E025 (2) High Inlet Air Temperature (derating)
69 Troubleshooting Section
i01727766
Turbocharger Turbine Temperature (Low) SMCS Code: 1052-038
Probable Causes • Operation with a light load • Diagnostic code from the Integrated Temperature Sensing Module (ITSM)
• Low temperature from the cylinder exhaust ports • A faulty temperature sensor
When the engine is operating properly, the temperatures from similar locations are reduced at a similar rate. Also, the temperatures from similar locations are comparable. If any discrepancies are found, switch the suspect thermocouple for another thermocouple. If the temperature problem follows the thermocouple, replace the thermocouple. If the temperature problem stays at the original location of the thermocouple, investigate the cause for the low temperature.
Check for Diagnostic Codes that Relate to Ignition
• Faulty ignition
Use Cat ET to check for diagnostic codes that relate to the ignition system. Troubleshoot the code.
• Low cylinder compression
Check the Ignition System
Recommended Repairs
Inspect the components of the ignition system for the suspect cylinder bank. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Ignition Transformers Secondary Circuit and Spark Plugs”.
Check for Misfire Operation with a low load can result in low exhaust temperatures. Operate the engine at low idle or near low idle in order to identify a misfire problem. Troubleshoot the cause of the misfire. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Engine Misfires, Runs Rough or Is Unstable”.
Check for Diagnostic Codes from the Integrated Temperature Sensing Module (ITSM) Use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to check for diagnostic codes that relate to the thermocouples. Troubleshoot the code.
Check the Temperatures of the Cylinder Exhaust Ports Observe the temperatures for the exhaust ports of the cylinders in the suspect bank. If any of the temperatures for the exhaust ports are significantly different, determine the reason for the difference in the exhaust port temperatures. Make repairs, as needed.
Check for Suspect Thermocouples Observe the temperatures from the thermocouples for the turbochargers after the engine is shut off.
Make repairs, as needed.
Check the Cylinder Compression Measure the cylinder pressures of the suspect bank in order to check for problems that are related to compression. If low compression is found, investigate the cause of the low compression. Make repairs, as needed.

Failure Mode Identifiers FMI i01727770
Diagnostic Codes SMCS Code: 1901-038 Diagnostic codes alert the operator that a problem in the electronic system has been detected. Diagnostic codes also indicate the nature of the problem to the service technician. The Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) is a software program that is designed to run on a personal computer. Diagnostic codes may be viewed on a personal computer that has Cat ET software. Diagnostic codes consist of the module identifier (MID), the component identifier (CID), and the failure mode identifier (FMI). Module Identifier (MID) – The MID is a code with two or three digits that indicates the electronic module which generated the diagnostic code. The MID for the Electronic Control Module (ECM) is 36. The MID for the Integrated Temperature Sensing Module (ITSM) is 111. Some electronic displays do not display the MID because the module which generates the code is obvious. Component Identifier (CID) – The CID is a number with three or four digits. The CID indicates the component that generated the code. For example, the CID number 0017 identifies the fuel shutoff valve. Failure Mode Identifier (FMI) – The FMI is a two digit code that indicates the type of failure. Table 12 is a list of the failure mode identifiers that are adapted from the “SAE J1587” standard.

Note: Do not confuse diagnostic codes with event codes. For information on event codes, see Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting with an Event Code”. Illustration 14 represents the operating range of an oil temperature sensor. The diagram is a reference. Do not use the diagram to troubleshoot the oil temperature sensor.
71 Troubleshooting Section
This information is a valuable indicator for troubleshooting intermittent problems. Any logged diagnostic codes will automatically be deleted if no additional occurrences are recorded in 100 hours. Some diagnostic codes may be easily triggered. Some diagnostic codes may log occurrences that did not result in complaints. The most likely cause of an intermittent problem is a faulty connection or damaged wiring. The next likely cause is a component failure. The least likely cause is the failure of the ECM. Diagnostic codes that are logged repeatedly may indicate a problem that needs special investigation. Note: Always clear logged diagnostic codes after investigating and correcting the problem which generated the code. i01727809

Typical operating range of an oil temperature sensor (1) In these areas, the output voltage of the sensor is too high or too low. The output is outside of the normal range. The electronic problem will generate a diagnostic code. (2) In this area, the oil temperature above 102 C (216 F) is higher than normal. The output voltage of the sensor will generate an event code for a warning, a derating, or a shutdown for high oil temperature. The sensor does not have an electronic problem. (3) This area represents the normal operating temperature for the engine oil. The normal output voltage of the sensor is between 0.2 and 4.1 volts.

Troubleshooting with an Event Code i01729324
Event Codes SMCS Code: 1901-038 Use this section for the troubleshooting of problems that have generated event codes but do not have active diagnostic codes. When the event code is generated, the event is active. Any generated code becomes logged in the permanent memory of the Electronic Control Module (ECM). Event codes alert the operator that an abnormal engine operating condition such as low oil pressure or high coolant temperature has been detected. Events do not indicate problems with the electronic system. Event codes also indicate the nature of the problem. The Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) is designed to run on a personal computer. Event codes may be viewed on a personal computer that has the Cat ET software. Illustration 15 represents the operating range of an oil temperature sensor. The diagram is a reference. Do not use the diagram to troubleshoot the oil temperature sensor.
Illustration 15
g00791619
Typical operating range of an oil temperature sensor (1) In these areas, the output voltage of the sensor is too high or too low. The output is outside of the normal range. The electronic problem will generate a diagnostic code. (2) In this area, the oil temperature above 102 C (216 F) is higher than normal. The output voltage of the sensor will generate an event code for a warning, a derating, or a shutdown for high oil temperature. The sensor does not have an electronic problem. (3) This area represents the normal operating temperature for the engine oil. The normal output voltage of the sensor is between 0.2 and 4.1 volts.
The following format is used for event codes:
• “EXXX (X) Description of the code” The “E” means that the code is an event code. The “XXX” represents a numeric identifier for the event code. The fourth “(X)” represents a numeric identifier for the severity of the code. This is followed by a description of the code. See the following example:
• “E004 (3) Engine Overspeed Shutdown” The numbers that indicate the severity of the event code are defined below: Warning (1) – This condition represents a serious problem with engine operation. However, this condition does not require a deration or a shutdown. Derate (2) – For this condition, the engine power is reduced in order to help prevent possible engine damage. Shutdown (3) – For this condition, the engine is shut down in order to help prevent possible engine damage.
148 Troubleshooting Section
These responses to certain events may be programmed into the ECM. If the responses are programmed, Cat ET can display the event. If the responses are not programmed, the display will not appear. However, the occurrence of any event will cause the event code to be logged in the ECM.
Be sure to check the connectors. This is specially true for problems that are intermittent. See Troubleshooting, “Inspecting Electrical Connectors”. Narrow the probable cause. Consider the operator information, the conditions of operation, and the history of the engine.
Note: Do not confuse event codes with diagnostic codes. For information on diagnostic codes, see Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting with a Diagnostic Code”.
Operator Information
Perform the following tasks before you troubleshoot the event code:
• The occurrence and the time of the occurrence
• Gather enough information about the complaint in order to describe the symptom(s) adequately.
• Verify that the complaint is not due to normal engine operation.
• Repair all active diagnostic codes. See
Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting With A Diagnostic Code”.
Troubleshooting For basic troubleshooting of the engine, perform the following steps first in order to diagnose a malfunction. 1. Gather information about the complaint from the operator. 2. Verify that the complaint is not due to normal engine operation. Verify that the complaint is not due to error of the operator. 3. Perform a visual inspection. Inspect the following items:
• Fuel supply • Oil level
Obtain the following information from the operator:
• Determine the conditions for the occurrence. The conditions will include the engine rpm and the load.
• Determine if there are any systems that were installed by the dealer or the customer that could cause the symptom.
• Determine whether any other occurrences happened in addition to the symptom.
Diagnostic Codes and Event Codes Examine the following information regarding any codes:
• The probable cause of the symptom is correlated to the code.
• The code was generated when the symptom occurred.
• Codes that are repeatedly logged • The complaint is not due to normal engine operation.
Other Symptoms
• Oil supply
If other occurrences happened in addition to the symptom, investigate the following conditions:
• Wiring
• The other occurrences are related to the
• Connectors 4. Check the diagnostic codes and event codes. Repair any active codes. If these inspections do not reveal any problems, identify the probable causes with the procedures in this manual that best describe the symptoms. Check each probable cause according to the tests that are recommended.
symptom.
• The symptoms have a probable cause that is common.
Active Event Codes An active event code represents a problem with engine operation. Correct the problem as soon as possible.
149 Troubleshooting Section
When an event code is active, the “Active Alarm” indicator (“Engine Control Alarm Status” on Cat ET) is activated in order to alert the operator. If the condition that generated the code is momentary, the message disappears. The event code will be logged in the ECM memory. Active event codes are listed in ascending numerical order. The code with the lowest number is listed first.
When the ECM generates an event code the ECM logs the code in permanent memory. The ECM has an internal diagnostic clock. The ECM will record the following information when a code is generated:
• 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 This information can be helpful for troubleshooting intermittent problems. Logged codes can also be used to review the performance of the engine. Any logged event codes will automatically be deleted if no additional occurrences are recorded in 100 hours. Logged events are listed in chronological order. The most recent event code is listed first. Note: Always clear logged event codes after investigating and correcting the problem which generated the code. i01729333

+5V Sensor Voltage Supply SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: The Electronic Control Module (ECM) supplies 5.0 ± 0.5 VDC to the sensors for these parameters:
• Inlet air temperature • Engine oil temperature • Unfiltered engine oil pressure • Filtered engine oil pressure • Humidity (if equipped) The ECM also provides 5 VDC to the “DESIRED SPEED” potentiometer (if equipped). A “+5 Volt Sensor DC Power Supply short to ground” diagnostic code will be activated if both of these conditions occur:
• The desired speed signal wire is shorted to ground.
• The “DESIRED SPEED” potentiometer is near the maximum desired speed or at the maximum desired speed. A “+5 V sensor supply” diagnostic code is probably caused by a short circuit or an open circuit in a harness. The next likely cause is a sensor problem. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file. This troubleshooting procedure may generate additional diagnostic codes. Keep your mind on correcting the cause of the original diagnostic code. Clear the diagnostic codes after the problem is resolved. The 5 V diagnostic code is probably caused by a short circuit or an open circuit in a harness. The next likely cause is a sensor problem. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM.

Analog Sensor Signal SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: Use this procedure to troubleshoot diagnostic codes for open circuits or short circuits for the sensors of these parameters:
• Engine coolant temperature • Inlet air temperature
214 Troubleshooting Section
• Engine oil temperature • Filtered engine oil pressure • Unfiltered engine oil pressure Note: The engine coolant temperature sensor does not require +5 VDC from the Electronic Control Module (ECM). The engine coolant temperature sensor is a passive sensor of the analog type. The sensor operates without a voltage supply from the ECM. The ECM can be configured for one of these types of speed control:
• Potentiometer • 4-20 ma The “DESIRED SPEED” potentiometer (if equipped) must be supplied with +5 VDC from the ECM. If the “DESIRED SPEED” potentiometer has a short circuit or the potentiometer’s wiring has a short circuit, a 262-03 or 262-04 diagnostic code may be activated. There are no diagnostic codes for the circuit of the “DESIRED SPEED” potentiometer. The -03 code is probably caused by a problem in an engine harness. There may be an open circuit in a harness, or a short circuit to a positive voltage source in a harness. The next likely cause is a sensor problem. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. The -04 code is probably caused by a short circuit to ground in an engine harness. The next likely cause is a sensor problem. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file.

to ground” diagnostic codes are generated according to the above steps. The ECM is operating correctly. The initial diagnostic code was probably caused by a poor electrical connection. Repair: Perform the following procedure: Turn the engine control switch to the OFF/RESET position. Switch the 16 amp circuit breaker for the ECM OFF. Use a 151-6320 Wire Removal Tool to remove the jumper wire from the P1 connector. Reinstall the terminal that was removed from the P1 connector. Pull on the wire in order to verify proper installation of the terminal. Resume normal operation. STOP.
• Not OK – No active “open/short to +batt” and “short to ground” diagnostic codes were generated. The ECM is not operating correctly. Repair: It is unlikely that the ECM has failed. Perform this entire procedure again. If the problem is not resolved, perform the following steps: Temporarily install a new ECM. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Replacing the ECM”.
The selection of the “4-20 mA Input” setting requires a 4 to 20 mA signal for regulation of the desired engine speed. If the “Desired Speed Input” is set to “0-5 VDC Input”, do not use this procedure to troubleshoot the circuit. When the desired speed input is correspondingly configured, the ECM controls the engine speed according to the 4 to 20 mA current. The value of the current corresponds to a range of desired engine speeds between minimum high idle and maximum high idle. The “Minimum Engine High Idle Speed” and the “Maximum Engine High Idle Speed” are set with the “Service/Configuration” screen of ET. For more information, refer to Systems Operation/Testing and Adjusting, “Electronic Control System Parameters”. When the “Idle/Rated” switch is in the Rated position, a current value of 4.0 mA corresponds to the programmed “Minimum Engine High Idle Speed”. A current value of 20.0 mA corresponds to “Maximum Engine High Idle Speed”. Current values within this range will vary the desired engine speed in a linear fashion between “Minimum Engine High Idle Speed” and “Maximum Engine High Idle Speed”. The ECM will generate a diagnostic code in response to current outside of the range of 4 to 20 mA.
223 Troubleshooting Section
Current values that are greater than 22.0 mA will activate the “524-03 Desired Engine Speed Sensor short to +batt” diagnostic code. Current values that are less than 2.0 mA will activate the “524-04 Desired Engine Speed Sensor short to ground” diagnostic code. The most likely causes of the diagnostic code are a poor connection or a problem in a wiring harness. The next likely cause is a problem with a component. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use ET to print the logged codes to a file. The troubleshooting procedure may generate additional diagnostic codes. Keep your mind on correcting the cause of the original diagnostic code. Clear the diagnostic codes after the problem is resolved.

Detonation Sensors SMCS Code: 1559-038 System Operation Description: Detonation sensors are located on the upper cylinder block between every two cylinders. Each sensor monitors two adjacent cylinders. For example, one sensor monitors cylinders 1 and 3.
Illustration 65
g00890187
Harness side of the P1 connector (1) ECM P1 connector (P1-36) + Signal (P1-37) - Signal
Verify the correct 4 to 20 mA signal at the ECM P1 terminals (36) and (37). Expected Result: The correct 4 to 20 mA signal is provided to the ECM.
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) supplies 8 VDC in order to power the sensors. The detonation sensors provide electrical signals to the ECM that indicate mechanical engine vibrations. Each sensor outputs an electrical signal. The signal is amplified and the signal is filtered. The frequency of the signal corresponds to the mechanical frequency of the vibrations. The amplitude of the signal is proportional to the intensity of the vibrations. The ECM monitors the signals in order to determine the presence and the severity of the detonation. The ECM retards the timing in order to limit detonation levels. The timing may be retarded for a single cylinder or for more than one cylinder. The timing may be retarded for all of the cylinders, if necessary. If retardation of the timing does not sufficiently limit the detonation, the engine is shut down.
229 Troubleshooting Section
The ECM can retard timing by as few as three degrees for light detonation levels. The timing can be retarded up to six degrees for severe detonation. For most applications, the minimum allowable actual timing is ten degrees BTC (five degrees BTC for propane operation). A proportional strategy is used for advancing the timing after the timing has been retarded. The rate of advance is based upon the level of detonation. The rate is faster for lighter detonation. The fastest rate of proportional timing advance is one degree per minute. The ECM will diagnose the detonation sensors for a signal that is shorted to the −Battery side, the +Battery side, or an open circuit. To avoid detecting vibrations that are not related to detonation, the ECM only monitors a detonation sensor on the firing stroke, when one of the sensor’s cylinders is between top center and 40 degrees after top center. Therefore, the “Block Tap” method of testing the detonation sensors does not work for the G3500B Engine. An input from a detonation sensor that is diagnosed by the ECM as “open/shorted to +battery” may measure 0 VDC on a voltmeter. The ECM also supports related event codes when the levels of detonation warrant a reaction from the ECM. If the timing has been retarded by the maximum amount and the level of detonation remains high, the ECM will shut down the engine. Detonation protection is disabled when the engine speed is less than 250 rpm. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file. The most likely causes of the diagnostic code are a poor connection or a problem in a wiring harness. The next likely cause is a problem with a sensor. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. The troubleshooting procedure may generate additional diagnostic codes. Keep your mind on correcting the cause of the original diagnostic code. Clear the diagnostic codes after the problem is resolved.

ECM Output Circuit (Fuel Control) SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: The Electronic Control Module (ECM) contains the logic and the outputs for control of prelubrication, starting, and shutdown of the engine. The logic for starting and stopping is customer programmable. The logic responds to inputs from the following components: engine control switch, emergency stop switch, remote start switch, data link, and other inputs. The fuel control relay is energize-to-run. To enable fuel flow to the engine, the relay for the Gas Shutoff Valve (GSOV) must be energized. The ECM provides +Battery voltage to the relay for the GSOV when the logic determines that fuel is required for engine operation. For engine shutdown, the ECM removes the voltage from the fuel control relay. This stops the fuel flow.
Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file. The most likely causes of the diagnostic code are a poor electrical connection or a problem in a wiring harness. The next likely cause is a problem with the GSOV. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. The troubleshooting procedure may generate additional diagnostic codes. Keep your mind on correcting the cause of the original diagnostic code. Clear the diagnostic codes after the problem is resolved.

ECM Output Circuit (Prelubrication Oil Pump) SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: The Electronic Control Module (ECM) contains the logic and the outputs for control of prelubrication, starting, and shutdown of the engine. The logic for starting and stopping is customer programmable. The logic responds to inputs from the following components: engine control switch, emergency stop switch, remote start switch, data link, and other inputs. The output for the prelube relay will not operate if the emergency stop button is activated or if the engine speed is greater than 0 rpm. When the conditions permit operation and the logic determines that lubrication is required, the ECM provides +Battery voltage to the prelube relay. After activation, the prelube pump will operate until one of the following occurrences:
• The prelube pressure switch closes. • The programmable “Engine Pre-lube Time Out Period” expires.
• The emergency stop button is pressed. The output for the prelube relay can also be operated with a manual switch. When the switch is closed, a +Battery signal is sent to the ECM. The ECM provides +Battery voltage to the prelube relay until the switch is released or until the prelube pressure switch closes. The prelubrication system also operates after shutdown. This ensures that the turbocharger has adequate lubrication during coastdown. When the engine reaches 0 rpm, the output for the prelube relay will operate for three minutes. When +Battery voltage is supplied to the prelube relay, the ECM also provides +Battery voltage to the “Prelube Active” indicator in the control panel (if equipped). Before you troubleshoot the prelubrication system, make sure that the ECM is programmed properly. The “Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period” must be programmed to a value between 30 and 300 seconds. Make sure that the hardware is installed: prelube pump, prelube relay, prelube pressure switch, and manual prelube switch. Make sure that the wiring is installed. Refer to the engine’s electrical schematic.
248 Troubleshooting Section
If Caterpillar did not supply the prelubrication system, the prelubrication function and the E233 (3) event code are disabled. The 338-05, 338-06, and 339-05 diagnostic codes are also disabled.
Test Step 1. Inspect the Electrical Connectors and Wiring
Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file. The most likely causes of the diagnostic code are a poor electrical connection or a problem in a wiring harness. The next likely cause is a problem with the prelube relay. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. The troubleshooting procedure may generate additional diagnostic codes. Keep your mind on correcting the cause of the original diagnostic code. Clear the diagnostic codes after the problem is resolved.

ECM Output Circuit (Starting Motor) SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: The ECM contains the logic and the outputs for control of prelubrication, starting, and shutdown of the engine. The logic for starting and stopping is customer programmable. The logic responds to inputs from the following components: engine control switch, emergency stop switch, remote start switch, data link, and other inputs. The ECM supplies +Battery voltage to the starter motor relay when the logic determines that it is necessary. The ECM removes the voltage when the crank terminate relay is energized. The voltage is also removed if the customer programmable “Overcrank Time” has expired. Logged diagnostics provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file. The most likely causes of the diagnostic code are a poor electrical connection or a problem in a wiring harness. The next likely cause is a problem with the starter motor relay. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM.

ECM Status Indicator Output SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: The Electronic Control Module (ECM) has four outputs in order to indicate the status of engine operation: “Run Relay”, “Crank Terminate Relay”, “Engine Control Alarm Status”, and “Fault Relay”. These outputs can be used to energize indicator lamps or the outputs can be used to interface with other controls. When the output is OFF, the circuit is open. The output provides a maximum current of 0.3 amperes to the ECM. The ECM grounds the current to the negative terminal of the battery in order to activate the appropriate output. If any of the outputs have a short circuit to the +Battery side or excessive current, a diagnostic code is generated. Note: These outputs do not provide enough current for illumination of standard incandescent lights. If a lamp is burned out, replace the lamp with the lamp that is specified in the engine’s Parts Manual. “Run Relay” – This output indicates that the engine is in the “Run” status. The engine will start soon or the engine is running. While this output is energized, a short circuit to a positive voltage source or excessive electrical current on the output will cause a diagnostic code to become activated. The ECM cannot diagnose this output while the output is OFF. “Crank Terminate Relay” – This output indicates that the engine rpm is greater than the programmed engine speed that is required for disengagement of the starting motor. While this output is energized, a short circuit to a positive voltage source or excessive electrical current on the output will cause a diagnostic code to become Activated. The ECM cannot diagnose this output while the output is OFF. “Engine Control Alarm Status” – This is the alarm output. This output indicates that the ECM has detected an electrical problem or an abnormal operating condition. While this output is energized, a short circuit to a positive voltage source or excessive electrical current on the output will cause a diagnostic code to become Activated. The ECM cannot diagnose this output while the output is OFF.
“Fault Relay” – This is the shutdown output. This output indicates that a potentially damaging operating condition was detected by the ECM. The ECM has shut down the engine. While this output is energized, a short circuit to a positive voltage source or excessive electrical current on the output will cause a diagnostic code to become Activated. The ECM cannot diagnose this output while the output is OFF. A “323-03 Shutdown Lamp short to +batt” or “324-03 Warning Lamp short to +batt” diagnostic code can only be generated if a shutdown condition or an alarm condition is active. Failure to correct these serious conditions can result in engine damage. Use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to determine the event code or the diagnostic code that corresponds to the 323-03 or 324-03 diagnostic code. Troubleshoot that event code or that diagnostic code before you troubleshoot the 323-03 or 324-03 diagnostic code. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting with an Event Code” or Troubleshooting, “Troubleshooting with a Diagnostic Code”. The most likely causes of a diagnostic code for a status indicator is a poor electrical connection or a problem in a wiring harness. The next likely cause is a problem with an indicator. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use ET to print the logged codes to a file. The troubleshooting procedure may generate additional diagnostic codes. Keep your mind on correcting the cause of the original diagnostic code. Clear the diagnostic codes after the problem is resolved.

Electrical Power Supply SMCS Code: 1401-038 System Operation Description: This procedure tests whether proper voltage is supplied to the Electronic Control Module (ECM), the Integrated Temperature sensing Module, and the fuel metering valve. In addition to troubleshooting diagnostic codes, use this procedure if you suspect that the ECM, the Integrated Temperature Sensing Module, or the fuel metering valve are not receiving the proper supply voltage. The cause of an intermittent power supply can occur on either the positive side or the negative side of the power supply. The 24 VDC power supply for the engine can be provided by a battery or by an electrical power supply. The minimum requirement for the power supply is 22 VDC at 16 amperes. The power supply should be routed through a dedicated fuse or through a dedicated circuit breaker.
275 Troubleshooting Section
The ECM input at terminal 70 of the P1 connector (“Switched +Battery”) receives battery voltage from the engine control switch when the switch is in the START, STOP, or AUTO position. When the ECM detects battery voltage at this input, the ECM will power up. When battery voltage is removed from this input, the ECM will power down after the engine has shut down. The “168-02” diagnostic code indicates that the voltage of the power supply is intermittent or low while the engine is running. If the supply voltage drops to zero and stays at zero, the ECM will not log this code. The engine will shut down. The “336-02” diagnostic code indicates that the ECM has detected a problem with the circuit for the engine control switch. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file. This procedure may generate additional diagnostic codes. Keep your mind on correcting the cause of the original diagnostic code. Clear the diagnostic codes after the problem is resolved.

Engine Speed/Timing Sensor SMCS Code: 1912-038 System Operation Description:
Illustration 130
g00893441
Speed/Timing sensor and timing ring
The speed/timing sensor provides information about engine speed and the position of the crankshaft to the Electronic Control Module (ECM). The sensor is powered by the sensor supply (12 VDC) from the ECM. A magnetic pickup is located in the plastic sliphead of the sensor. The timing ring is mounted on the rear of the left camshaft. As the teeth of the ring rotate past the sliphead of the sensor, the sensor generates a signal that matches the pattern of the teeth. The timing ring has a special tooth pattern that indicates the position of the camshaft and the direction of rotation. The timing ring has 24 slots in the outer diameter. Twenty-one of the slots are narrow. Three of the slots are about 2.5 times wider than the rest of the slots. When the engine rotates in the normal direction, the slots pass the speed/timing sensor in the following order:
The number one cylinder is at the top center position when the rising edge of the third narrow slot passes the center of the sliphead. All 24 teeth pass the sliphead during one revolution of the camshaft or two revolutions of the crankshaft. With the information from the engine speed/timing sensor, the ECM is able to calculate the positions of the pistons in the cylinders. The ECM determines the desired ignition timing according to the engine speed and load. If detonation is detected in any of the cylinders, the ECM retards the timing of the affected cylinders. The ECM sends voltage pulses to the ignition transformers for firing the spark plugs according to the desired timing. During engine operation, the ECM will shut down the engine if the ECM detects a problem with the signal from the speed/timing sensor. The ECM will activate the corresponding diagnostic code.
• 1 wide slot • 3 narrow slots • 2 wide slots
If there is a problem with the engine speed/timing sensor’s signal during start-up but no corresponding diagnostic code is active, the ECM will not initiate the ignition. The engine will not start. The corresponding diagnostic code is not activated.
• 18 narrow slots The most likely causes of the diagnostic code are a poor electrical connection or a problem in a wiring harness. The next likely cause is a problem with the engine speed/timing sensor. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM.

C. Inspect the condition of the plastic sliphead (2). Look for signs of wear and contaminants. Clean any debris from the plastic sliphead. D. Check the tension of the plastic sliphead (2). Gently extend the plastic sliphead for a minimum of 4 mm (0.16 inch). Then push back the plastic sliphead.
• Not OK – The plastic sliphead is damaged and/or the tension of the sliphead is insufficient.
Repair: Install a new sensor. Calibrate the sensor. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Engine Speed/Timing Sensor - Calibrate”. If the condition is not resolved, proceed to proceed to Test Step 3.
Expected Result: The sensor is in good condition. At least 22 N (5 lb) of force is required to push in the plastic sliphead from the extended position.
Test Step 3. Check for Active Diagnostic Codes for the 12 Volt Sensor Supply A. Connect Cat ET to the service tool connector on the terminal box.
Results:
• OK – The sensor is not damaged. The tension of the plastic sliphead is correct. Repair: Install the sensor. NOTICE The plastic sliphead must be fully extended when the speed/timing sensor is installed so that the sensor maintains the correct clearance with the timing ring. If the correct clearance is not maintained, the signal from the sensor will not be generated. Do not install the sensor’s plastic sliphead between the teeth of the timing ring. Damage to the plasic sliphead will result. Before installing the sensor, ensure that a tooth of the ring is visible in the mounting hole for the sensor. 1. Use the following steps to install the speed/timing sensor: a. Ensure that a tooth on the timing ring is visible in the mounting hole for the sensor. b. Fully extend the sliphead. Note: The plastic sliphead is designed to contact the tooth of the timing ring during installation. As the timing ring begins to turn, the radial runout of the timing ring will push the plastic sliphead into the sensor body slightly. This provides the plastic sliphead’s air gap with a self-adjusting function. The maximum allowable clearance between the sliphead and a tooth on the timing ring is 0.5 mm (0.02 inch). c. Coat the threads of the sensor with 4C-5597 Anti-Seize Compound. d. Install the sensor. Tighten the sensor to 40 ± 5 N·m (30 ± 4 lb ft). Proceed to Test Step 3.
B. Switch the 16 amp circuit breaker for the ECM ON. Turn the engine control switch to the STOP position. C. Use the “Active Diagnostic” screen on Cat ET. Look for the following codes:
• 145-03 12 Volt DC Power Supply short to +batt • 145-04 12 Volt DC Power Supply short to ground
Expected Result: None of the above codes are active. Results:
• No active codes – None of the above codes are active. However, at least one of the codes is logged. Repair: Clear the logged codes. Proceed to Test Step 4.
• Active code – One of the above codes is active. Proceed to Test Step 5.

S/N: CSC1-Up; CTW1-Up System Operation Description: The fuel metering valve is an electronic gas valve that controls the flow of fuel to the engine. The valve works with the Electronic Control Module (ECM) in order to ensure the correct flow of gas in all conditions of engine operation. The ECM sends a command signal for the flow of fuel and information about the specific gravity of the gas to the fuel metering valve. The valve converts the command signal and the information into a valve position that directly corresponds to the desired gas flow. The position of the valve is compensated by these additional factors that are internal to the valve: a signal for absolute fuel pressure, differential pressure of the valve, and fuel temperature sensors. The following procedure tests whether the command signal for the flow of fuel and the information about the specific gravity of the gas is properly sent to the fuel metering valve by the ECM. The command signal is a 180 hertz PWM signal. Information about the specific gravity of the gas is sent to the fuel metering valve via the CAN Data Link.
288 Troubleshooting Section
The fuel metering valve sends information to the ECM via the CAN Data Link. This procedure tests whether the following information is properly sent to the ECM by the fuel metering valve: position of the fuel valve, absolute fuel pressure, differential pressure of the valve, and fuel temperature. A diagnostic code is probably caused by a problem with a wiring harness or a connector. The next likely cause is a problem with the fuel metering valve. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file. This troubleshooting procedure may generate additional diagnostic codes. Keep your mind on correcting the cause of the original diagnostic code. Clear the diagnostic code after the problem is resolved.

Ignition Transformers Primary Circuit SMCS Code: 1561-038 System Operation Description: The Electronic Control Module (ECM) has internal circuit drivers for the transformers. The circuit drivers send a signal of +108 volts through terminals that are in pairs. The signal goes to the high side of the primary circuits of the ignition transformers. The transformers deliver high voltage (8000 to 37,000 volts) to the spark plugs. The pairs of cylinders that are opposite by 360 degrees in the firing order reach Top Center simultaneously. These pairs of cylinders share the same high side circuit driver inside the ECM. This means that a short circuit to the high side on any cylinder will also affect the cylinder that is opposite by 360 degrees. If any cylinder’s high side has an open circuit, only that cylinder is affected. Each following pair of cylinders are supplied by one of the eight high side circuit drivers: 1-15, 2-16, 3-13, 4-14, 5-11, 6-12, 7-9, and 8-10. Note: The ECM has internal returns for the transformer’s circuits. Externally, these returns consist of individual terminals for each primary circuit. Internally, these returns are grouped into four groups of four circuits. Each of the circuits are connected via 16 diodes. Because of the diodes, a return short circuit to the −Battery side will affect only one cylinder. On the other hand, a return short circuit to the +Battery side can simultaneously affect all four return circuits in a single group. Each following group of cylinders are coupled by an internal diode to one low side circuit driver: 1-3-5-9, 2-4-6-10, 7-11-13-15, and 8-12-14-16. Because the circuits are in pairs or groups, multiple diagnostic codes can be activated for a single problem. If multiple diagnostic codes are active for the primary ignition, troubleshooting the circuits one at a time is an effective way to find the root cause.
Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file. The most likely causes of the diagnostic code are a poor electrical connection or a problem in a wiring harness. The next likely cause is a problem with an ignition transformer. The least likely cause is a problem with the ECM.

Ignition Transformers Secondary Circuit and Spark Plugs SMCS Code: 1561-038 System Operation Description: The ignition transformers initiate combustion by providing high voltage to the spark plugs. The positive output from the secondary circuit of the transformer is at the connection for the terminal of the transformer and the terminal of the spark plug. The transformers are located underneath the valve covers. Each transformer is grounded to a valve cover via a ground spring.
315 Troubleshooting Section
Note: Ignition transformers from Electronic Ignition Systems (EIS) are not interchangeable with the transformers in this engine. Caterpillar spark plugs are high voltage devices with internal resistors. The spark plugs operate at a voltage that is greater than 5,000 volts. Most ignition systems are not affected by resistance in the secondary circuit. If a measurement of the resistance is desired, a megohmmeter must be used. A low voltage multimeter will not provide a reliable reading of the resistance because oxidation of the spark plug’s internal components will affect the readings of those meters.
Test Step 1. Check the Status Screen of Cat ET for the Output of the Secondary Circuits of the Transformers A. Turn the engine control switch to the OFF/RESET position. Switch the 16 amp circuit breaker for the ECM OFF. B. Connect Cat ET to the service tool connector on the terminal box. C. Switch the 16 amp circuit breaker for the ECM ON. Turn the engine control switch to the STOP position. D. Set up two Status screens for Cat ET. Use eight of the following labels for parameters on each Status screen: Illustration 178

Ignition transformer and spark plug (1) Ground spring (2) 2-pin connector (3) secondary spark plug terminal (4) Extension (5) O-ring seal (6) Hole in the spark plug’s precombustion chamber
The secondary circuit of the transformer provides an initial 8,000 to 37,000 volts to the spark plug. This voltage ionizes the spark plug gap. This voltage is then reduced to about 1000 volts. The total duration of the spark is approximately 400 microseconds. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) can diagnose the primary circuit of the ignition transformers for open circuits and/or for short circuits. Secondary open circuits and short circuits will not directly shut down the engine. However, these conditions may lead to misfire which can cause lugging of the engine. Lugging of the engine can cause a shutdown. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, use the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to print the logged codes to a file.

Inspecting Electrical Connectors SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: Many of the troubleshooting procedures direct you to a specific electrical connector. Use the following test steps to help determine whether the connector is the cause of the problem. If a problem is found in a connector, repair the connector and verify that the problem is corrected. Intermittent electrical problems are often caused by poor connections. Always check for an active diagnostic code before you open any connection. Immediately after you reconnect the connector, check for codes again. Sometimes, simply disconnecting a connector and then reconnecting the connector can solve a problem. If this occurs, the following conditions are likely causes:
• Loose terminals • Bent terminals • Improperly crimped terminals • Improperly mated connectors • Moisture • Corrosion

Repair: Repair the wires or replace the wires, as required. Verify that the repair eliminates the problem. STOP.
Thoroughly inspect ECM J1/P1 and J2/P2 connectors for evidence of moisture entry.
324 Troubleshooting Section
Note: It is normal to see some minor seal abrasion on the ECM connector seals. Minor seal abrasion will not allow the entry of moisture. If moisture or corrosion is evident in the connector, the source of the moisture entry must be found and the source of the moisture entry must be repaired. If the repair is not made, the problem will recur. Simply drying the connector will not fix the problem. The following list includes likely paths for the entrance of moisture:
• Missing seals or plugs
Verify that the repair eliminates the problem by running the engine for several minutes and by checking again for moisture. If moisture reappears, the moisture is wicking into the connector. Even if the moisture entry path is repaired, it may be necessary to replace the wires that have moisture. These wires may have moisture that is trapped inside the insulation. Verify that the repair eliminates the problem. STOP.
Test Step 7. Inspect the Connector Terminals.
• Improperly installed seals or plugs • Nicks in exposed insulation • Improperly mated connectors Moisture can also wick from one connector through the inside of a wire to the ECM connector. If moisture is found in the ECM connector, thoroughly check all connectors and wires on the harness that connects to the ECM. The ECM is not the source of the moisture. Do not replace an ECM if moisture is found in either ECM connector. Note: If corrosion is evident on the pins, sockets or the connector, use only denatured alcohol to remove the corrosion. Use a cotton swab or a soft brush to remove the corrosion. Do not use any cleaners that contain 1,1,1 trichloro-ethylene because 1,1,1 trichloro-ethylene may damage the connector.
Verify that the terminals are not damaged. Verify that the terminals are properly aligned in the connector and verify that the terminals are properly located in the connector. Expected Result: The terminals are properly aligned and the terminals appear undamaged. Results:
• OK – Proceed to Test Step 7. • Not OK Repair: Repair the terminals and/or replace the terminals, as required. Verify that the repair eliminates the problem.

Oxygen Sensor Buffer Supply SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: The oxygen buffer uses an oxygen sensor in order to measure the concentration of oxygen in the engine exhaust. The oxygen buffer receives power from terminal 13 of the J2/P2 connector on the ECM. The return circuit is through terminal 23 of the J2/P2 connector. The buffer provides a power supply of 1.5 amperes and 10.5 volts between the positive VH and negative VH terminals in order to power a resistive type of heater in the oxygen sensor. After this heater raises the temperature of the sensing element to 700 C (1292 F), the buffer regulates the current from the positive IP terminal to the negative IP terminal. This keeps the voltage between the positive VS terminal and negative VS terminal relatively constant. The amount of current is a measure of the concentration of oxygen in the exhaust gases. The current will vary from 0 mA at 0 percent of oxygen to approximately 8.7 mA at 21 percent of oxygen. The oxygen buffer measures this current. The buffer converts the current to a Pulse Width Modulated signal (PWM) with a nominal frequency of 500 Hz. This signal is supplied to terminal 67 of the ECM J2/P2 connector.
334 Troubleshooting Section
The duty cycle of the PWM signal has a range of 30 to 65 percent. The 30 percent corresponds to 0 percent of oxygen and the 65 percent corresponds to 21 percent of oxygen. These values vary slightly between different buffers and sensors. Calibration is required for every new buffer. Calibration of the buffer is also required after every 1500 service hours. Some applications may require more frequent calibration or less frequent calibration. The oxygen buffer is equipped with a diagnostic circuit that detects the current which is provided to the heating element of the oxygen sensor. If this current is too low, the buffer assumes that the oxygen sensor has failed or the sensor is disconnected from the oxygen buffer. This will cause the PWM signal from the oxygen buffer to change to a duty cycle of approximately 15 percent. The ECM interprets this condition as a diagnostic condition. The ECM will generate a diagnostic code that can be viewed with the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET). The sensor provides a wet reading that is slightly lower than a dry reading. The wet reading is multiplied by a conversion factor of approximately 1.25 in order to obtain the reading that is displayed on Cat ET. This allows oxygen readings from Cat ET to be compared to dry readings from an emissions analyzer. The ECM uses the signal of the percent of oxygen for two functions:
• Make corrections for variation of fuel BTU. • Maintain desired emissions levels. If an incorrect signal is detected by the ECM, a diagnostic code is activated and compensation for fuel quality is disabled. Problems with the circuit for the oxygen signal must be repaired as soon as possible because of the effects on engine performance and emissions.

Prelubrication System SMCS Code: 1319-038 System Operation Description: The prelube system is an option. During the prestart, the Electronic Control Module (ECM) can energize the prelube pump before cranking the engine in order to provide lubrication to the engine bearings. The ECM uses the input from the prelube pressure switch in order to monitor the lubrication pressure. Closure of the pressure switch indicates that sufficient oil pressure has been achieved. After the pressure switch closes, the prelube pump can continue to operate for a programmable period of time (“Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period”). The pump is de-energized when the process of prelubrication is completed. The “A” and “B” contacts of the prelube pressure switch close at a pressure of 9 ± 3 kPa (1.3 ± 0.4 psi). The “A” and “B” contacts of the prelube pressure switch open at a pressure of 7 kPa (1 psi).
For the prelube system to work, the “Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period” must be programmed for a time period between 30 and 300 seconds. The range for the “Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period” is 30 to 300 seconds. If the “Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period” is not programmed for a time period between 30 and 300 seconds or if the engine is not equipped with the prelubrication function, the prelubrication is disabled. The engine will crank without the prelubrication. The following codes cannot be generated:
• E233 Low Engine Prelube Pressure • 338-05 Pre-Lube Relay open circuit • 338-06 Pre-Lube Relay short to ground • 339-05 Engine Pre-Lube Pressure Switch open circuit Note: To troubleshoot the circuit for the prelube relay, see Troubleshooting, “ECM Start/Stop Output”.
If the prelube pressure switch is closed before the prestart, the prelube pump will run for the programmed “Engine Pre-Lube Time Out Period”. If the ECM does not detect closure of the pressure switch within the programmed period of time, the ECM monitors the engine oil pressure sensor in order to determine whether lubrication has occurred. If the prelubrication does not occur, an “E233 Low Engine Prelube Pressure” event code is generated. The starting sequence is terminated. Under the following circumstances, the prelube pump is energized until the prelube pressure switch closes:
• The manual prelube switch is closed. • The emergency stop switch is open. • The engine speed is zero. The pump will operate until one of these conditions occur:
• The prelube pressure switch closes. • The manual prelube switch opens. • The emergency stop switch closes.

If the actual inlet manifold air pressure is greater than approximately 338 kPa (49 psi), a “106-08 Air Inlet Pressure Sensor noisy signal” diagnostic code will be generated. Although there is not a problem with the sensor, the code will be generated. If the actual engine coolant pressure is greater than approximately 444 kPa (64 psi), a “109-08 Engine Coolant Outlet Pressure Sensor noisy signal” diagnostic code will be generated. Although there is not a problem with the sensor, the code will be generated. If a “106-08” or “109-08” diagnostic code is generated, measure the absolute pressure with a pressure gauge before you troubleshoot the sensor. If the pressure is actually too high, reduce the pressure in order to avoid activation of false diagnostic codes. Logged diagnostic codes provide an historical record. Before you begin this procedure, print the logged codes to a file.
Repair: Perform the following procedure: Turn the engine control switch to the OFF/RESET position. Insert terminals 30 and 31 into the P1 connector. Pull on the wires in order to verify that the terminals are fully inserted into the connector. Turn the engine control switch to the OFF position. Switch the 16 amp circuit breaker for the ECM OFF.

Switch the 16 amp circuit breaker for the ECM OFF. Remove the jumper wire from the P2 connector. Reinstall the terminals that were removed from connector P2. Pull on the wires in order to verify proper installation of the terminals. Reconnect all of the connectors. Verify that the problem is resolved. STOP.
• Not OK – When the wiring for the throttle actuator is replaced with a short circuit, a 1440-06 diagnostic code is not activated by the ECM. The ECM may have a problem. Repair: It is unlikely that the ECM has failed. Exit this procedure and perform this procedure again. If the problem is not resolved, perform the following procedure: Temporarily install a new ECM. Refer to Troubleshooting, “Replacing the ECM”. If the problem is resolved with a new ECM, install the original ECM and verify that the problem returns. If the new ECM operates correctly and the original ECM does not operate correctly, replace the original ECM. Follow the instructions in Troubleshooting, “Replacing the ECM”. STOP.

Calibration Procedures i01746763
Engine Speed/Timing Sensor Calibrate SMCS Code: 1912-038 System Operation Description: The Electronic Control Module (ECM) has the ability to calibrate the mechanical differences between the Top Center (TC) of the flywheel and the TC of the timing gear on the left rear camshaft gear. A magnetic transducer signals the TC of the flywheel to the ECM when the TC hole on the flywheel passes beneath the transducer. The engine speed/timing sensor signals the TC of the timing gear to the ECM. Any offset between the TC of the flywheel and the TC of the timing gear is stored into memory. Calibration of the timing is required only after the following circumstances:
• The ECM has been replaced. • The speed/timing sensor has been replaced. • The timing gear and/or the rear gear train have been adjusted.
• The timing gear and/or the rear gear train have been replaced.
Note: The “261-13 Engine Timing calibration required” diagnostic code is generated only for an ECM that has never performed a timing calibration. The calibration procedure is initiated with the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET).

Illustration 266 (1) P50 connector (2) 6V-3093 Transducer Adapter
(3) 6V-2197 Magnetic Transducer (4) 7X-1695 Cable
A. Turn the engine control switch to the OFF position. Remove the timing calibration plug from either the left side or the right side of the flywheel housing. Install the 6V-3093 Transducer Adapter into the hole. NOTICE The timing hole in the flywheel must not be aligned with the hole for the transducer. The transducer will be damaged on engine start-up if the transducer is installed through both holes. Rotate the flywheel for more than 10 degrees before or after the TC position in order to move the flywheel hole away from the hole for the transducer. Always confirm that the holes are not aligned.
B. Make sure that the hole in the flywheel housing for the transducer is not aligned with the timing hole in the flywheel. Remove the protective end cap from the 6V-2197 Magnetic Transducer. Insert the transducer into the adapter until the transducer contacts the surface of the flywheel. Move the transducer 1 mm (0.04 inch) away from the surface of the flywheel. Tighten the nut on the adapter in order to secure the transducer in place. C. Connect the one end of the 7X-1695 Cable to the transducer. Connect the other end of the cable to connector P50 inside of the terminal box. D. Turn the engine control switch to the STOP position.
377 Troubleshooting Section
E. Connect Cat ET to the service tool connector on the terminal box. For instructions, refer to Troubleshooting, “Electrical Connectors and Functions”. Start Cat ET.
Repair: If the calibration failed in the first step, verify that the engine rpm was stable during the calibration (± 50 rpm). Verify that there are no active diagnostic codes which can prevent the calibration. Repeat the calibration procedure.
Continue to the next test step.
Test Step 2. Calibration Note: A two-step process is used to calibrate the signal for the speed/timing sensor. The new timing reference is calculated first. The reference is based on the signals from the transducer and the speed/timing sensor. Next, the new timing reference is programmed into the permanent memory of the ECM. A. Start the engine. Operate the engine at the rated speed and load. B. Select “Service” from the main menu on Cat ET. Select “Calibrations” from the menu. Select “Timing Calibration”. C. Use either of the following methods in order to initiate the calculation of the new timing reference:
• Press the space bar on the keyboard of the
If the calibration is still unsuccessful, check the installation of the tools and check the operation of the tools. Check the 7X-1695 Cable for continuity. Verify that the transducer is not bent, open, or shorted internally. Repeat the calibration procedure. Excessive backlash in the gear train will cause inconsistent timing. Refer to Disassembly and Assembly for identifying and repairing a gear train problem. STOP.
• Not OK – The calibration was completed successfully. However, the “261-13 Engine Timing calibration required” diagnostic code is still active. Repair: Replace the ECM according to the instructions in Troubleshooting, “Replacing the ECM”. STOP.

After a few moments, Cat ET will display “The ECM has calculated the Timing Reference” and “Choose the Continue button to program the Timing Reference”. D. Use either of the following methods in order to program the new timing reference:
• Press the space bar on the keyboard of the PC.
• Click the left mouse button on the “Continue” button in the lower left corner of the Cat ET screen. Expected Result: After a few moments, Cat ET will display “CALIBRATION SUCCESSFUL”. Results:
• OK – The timing calibration was successful. STOP.
• Not OK – Cat ET displayed “COULD NOT CALIBRATE”. The calibration was unsuccessful.
Oxygen Sensor - Calibrate SMCS Code: 1901-038 System Operation Description: Periodic calibration of the oxygen sensor is required in order to ensure accurate readings and optimum engine performance. See the Operation And Maintenance Manual for the maintenance interval schedule. The engine must be stopped and the sensor must be removed. The sensor must be placed in uncontaminated air in order to calibrate the sensor. The air must be free of exhaust. During the calibration, the Electronic Control Module (ECM) first establishes the reference for zero percent of oxygen by reading the sensor after the sensor has cooled for two minutes. The ECM energizes the heater in the sensor for five minutes. Last, the ECM reads the percent of oxygen in the surrounding air. The surrounding air is assumed to be clean with approximately 20.95 percent oxygen. The calibration offset and the calibration range are determined from these two points.
