P-500: Inspecting Electrical Connectors
Many of the Operational Procedures and Diagnostic Code Procedures in this troubleshooting guide will direct you to check a specific electrical connector. Use the following steps to help determine if the connector is the cause of the problem. If a problem is found in the electrical connector, repair the connector and continue the test procedure.
1. Check Connector Lock Ring Or Allen Screw. Make sure that the connector is properly locked and that the lock ring or allen screw (4mm) is capable of locking the connector together.
2. Perform 10 Pound Pull Test On Each Pin/Wire. Each pin and connector should easily withstand 10 pounds of pull, and remain in the connector body. This test checks whether the wire was properly crimped in the pin, and whether the pin was properly inserted into the connector. Repair as needed.
NOTE: Pins should ALWAYS be crimped onto the wires; NEVER soldered.
3. Visually Inspect Wiring. Look for worn or abraded wires. Check for pinched or damaged harnesses.
4. Visually Inspect Connectors. Verify that pins and sockets are not corroded or damaged. Verify proper alignment and location of pins in the connector.
5. Check Individual Pins And Sockets. This is especially important for intermittent problems. Using a new pin, insert the pin into each socket one at a time to check for a good grip on the pin by the socket. Repeat for each pin on the mating side of the connector, using a new socket for the test.
P-501: Electrical Power Supply To PEEC III
System Operation
The PEEC III ECM recieves electrical power (battery voltage) through wiring supplied by the vehicle manufacturer. In typical applications, PEEC III recieves power whenever the key is turned on.
Some vehicles may be equipped with an engine protection shutdown system or an idle timer shutdown system (external to PEEC III) that interrupts electrical power to the ECM to shut down the engine. Some of these will not supply power to PEEC III until the engine is cranked, until oil pressure comes up to acceptable limits, or until an override button is pressed. Keep in mind that these devices may be the cause of intermittent power to the ECM.
This procedure tests whether proper voltage is being supplied by vehicle wiring.
For intermittent problems that could be caused by vehicle wiring (such as intermittent shutdowns) temporarily bypassing the vehicle wiring may be an effective means of determining the root cause. If symptoms vanish with the wiring bypassed, vehicle wiring was the cause. A means of bypassing vehicle wiring is explained in Step 4 of the functional test.

P-502: Throttle Position Sensor
System Operation
The throttle position sensor is used to provide throttle signal to the ECM. Sensor output is a constant frequency signal with a pulse width that varies with throttle position. This output signal is referred to as either "Duty Cycle" or "Pulse Width Modulated" (PWM) signal and is expressed as a percentage between 0 and 100%.
The throttle position sensor may be one of two types. The "remote mounted" sensor is slightly smaller than a soda can and is connected to the throttle pedal by OEM supplied linkage. This sensor requires adjustment for proper operation. The "pedal mounted" sensor is attached directly to the pedal and requires no adjustment. Both sensors provide the same type signal to the ECM.
When properly adjusted, the remotely mounted TPS will produce a "Duty Cycle" of 15 to 20% at low idle and 80 to 85% at full throttle. The pedal mounted sensor will produce a "Duty Cycle" of 10 to 22% at low idle and 75 to 90% at full throttle. The percent duty cycle is translated in the ECM into throttle position of 3 to 100%.

P-503: PEEC III Diagnostic Lamp
System Operation
The Diagnostic Lamp is used to indicate the existence of a fault, to indicate "driver alert" status of the Idle Shutdown Timer, and may be used to read Flash Codes. While the engine is operating, it will go ON for a minimum of 5 seconds any time a fault condition exists. It will remain ON as long as the fault is ACTIVE.
On power up (key ON, Engine OFF), the lamp comes on for 5 seconds, blinks off, comes on for another 5 seconds, then goes out for 5 seconds. After this time, active diagnostic codes will be flashed out.
Active faults may be flashed out at any time by turning the cruise On/Off switch to Off, and holding the Set/Resume switch in the Resume position until the lamp begins to flash, then releasing it.
One terminal of the lamp is supplied with battery voltage whenever the key switch is On. The other terminal is connected to the ECM at P4/J4 pin 4 to turn the lamp On. Pin 4 will be at battery voltage when the lamp is Off, and less than 2 volts when the lamp is On.
Schematic
Functional Test
P-504: Vehicle Speed Signal
System Operation
The vehicle speed circuit consists of the vehicle speed sensor, the vehicle speed buffer, and associated wiring. The sensor is a standard magnetic pickup and is supplied by the truck manufacturer. It senses movement of the teeth on the output shaft of the transmission. The buffer (Caterpillar supplied) takes the signal from the sensor, conditions it, and sends it to both the ECM and vehicle speedometer.
The buffer is supplied with battery voltage through P14/J14 pin A. Ground is supplied through P14/J14 pin B. A good ground is important in order to reduce electrical "noise", which can cause erratic signals. Therefore, the buffer should be grounded at the same point as the ECM using a separate dedicated ground wire.
The buffer has outputs to both the ECM and the vehicle speedometer. The output to the ECM is a series of 5 volt pulses at J14/P14 pin D, whose frequency varies directly with the speed of the vehicle. The buffer has 2 outputs to the speedometer, one at pin C and one at pin E. Output at each one is a series of -9 volt to +9 volt pulses. The two outputs oppose one another; when pin C is at +9 volts, pin E is at -9 volts, and vice versa. Either or both outputs may be used.

Diagnostic Codes
Functional Test
Example ECAP Screen of Vehicle Speed
Calibration/Adjustment
PEEC III uses vehicle speed information for cruise control, to limit engine speed in certain gears, and to limit vehicle speed.
PEEC III calculates vehicle speed by converting the vehicle speed signal to miles per hour. The conversion factor is stored as the customer parameter "Vehicle Speed Cal" and is stored in pulses per mile (PPM).
NOTE: Changing PPM Does Not change the actual vehicle speed signal-only the way the ECM converts the signal to mph. (In other words, changing PPM will not affect the speedometer).
P-505: Cruise Control And PTO Switches
System Operation
The PEEC III cruise control operates similar to automotive cruise controls. PTO operates similar to cruise, only it governs engine speed with the vehicle stationary. The following five switch inputs affect cruise or PTO:
- 1. Cruise On/Off; this switch must be On for cruise or PTO to be activated.
- 2. Set/Accel; with the cruise On/Off switch On, momentarily pressing this switch will activate cruise, and will tell the cruise or PTO to try to maintain the current speed. Holding this switch On will cause cruise or PTO to slowly accelerate this setpoint. Bumping the switch will accelerate the setpoint at one mph.
- 3. Resume/Decel; with the cruise On/Off switch On, momentarily pressing this switch will activate cruise, and will tell the cruise or PTO to resume with the setpoint used when cruise was last disabled. Holding this switch On will cause cruise or PTO to slowly decelerate this setpoint. Bumping the switch will decelerate the setpoint at one mph.
- 4. Clutch; depressing the clutch pedal will cause the cruise or PTO to deactivate.
- 5. Brake; depressing the brake pedal will cause the cruise or PTO to deactivate.
- 2. Set/Accel; with the cruise On/Off switch On, momentarily pressing this switch will activate cruise, and will tell the cruise or PTO to try to maintain the current speed. Holding this switch On will cause cruise or PTO to slowly accelerate this setpoint. Bumping the switch will accelerate the setpoint at one mph.
NOTE: All of these switches are typically in the truck cab and are supplied by the OEM. To troubleshoot the On/Off, Set or Resume switches, use this procedure. To troubleshoot the Clutch or Brake Switches, use P-506: Service Brake And Clutch Switch Tests. Voltage at each of the inputs to the ECM should be 5.0 ± .5 volts with the switch Off and less than .5 volts with the switch On.
Schematic
Functional Test
P-506: Service Brake And Clutch Switch
System Operation
The Brake and Clutch switches are used in cruise control and PTO mode to discontinue cruise or PTO operation. The switches may also be used to override the Idle Shutdown Timer.
The brake and clutch switches are separate circuits which are normally closed with the pedals released. Depressing either the clutch or the brake will open the individual circuits. Both switches are OEM supplied. The brake switch is typically a pressure switch. The clutch switch is typically a limit switch mounted near the pedal and is usually adjustable.
The brake signal goes to the ECM through P4 pin 7. The clutch signal goes to the ECM through P4 pin 26. Voltage at pins 7 or 26 to ground, should be 5.0 ± .5 volts with the switch open and less than .5 volts with the switch closed.
Schematic
Functional Test
P-507: Parking Brake Switch
System Operation
The Parking Brake switch is used only to enable the Idle Shutdown Timer. The idle shutdown timer will only be activated when the parking brake is on.
The parking brake switch is supplied by the OEM. It should be normally closed (with brake applied, and no air pressure to the parking brake). Releasing the brake should open the circuit. The idle shutdown timer will not operate unless the switch is installed to connect the parking brake input to P7 pin 2.
The signal goes through J4/P4 pin 17 to the ECM. Voltage at pin 17 should be 5.0 ± .5 volts with the switch open (parking brake released) and less than .5 volts with the switch closed (parking brake applied).

P-510: ECM/Personality Module
System Operation
The Electronic Control Module (ECM) is the computer which controls the PEEC III Diesel Truck Engine. The Personality Module is the software which controls how the computer (ECM) behaves. The two must be used together, neither can do anything by itself.
The Personality Module Consists Of:
- * All of the software,or instructions for the ECM to do its job. Because of this, updating the Personality Module to a different version may cause some engine functions to behave in a different manner.* Performance Maps, which define fuel rate, timing, etc. for various operating conditions to achieve optimum performance while meeting emissions requirements. These are programmed into the Personality Module at the factory only.
The ECM Consists Of:
- * A microprocessor,to perform the computing necessary to perform the ECM's functions (governing, controlling timing, generating diagnostic codes, communicating with service tools, etc.). The microprocessor gets its instructions from the software in the personality Module.* Programmable Parameters, stored in permanent memory (both Customer Specified and System Configuration Parameters). Refer to the section 2.0 Programming Parameters for details on what these parameters do.* Logged Diagnostics, PEEC logs certain diagnostic codes into memory so that a permanent record of the diagnostic is retained. Refer to the section Troubleshooting Diagnostic Codes, for further information on logged codes.* Input Circuits, to filter electrical noise from sensor signals and to protect sensitive internal circuits from potentially damaging voltage levels.* Output Circuits, to provide the high currents necessary to energize lamps or injector solenoids as the microprocessor chooses.* Power circuits,to provide clean stable electrical power to internal circuits and external sensors.

P-511: Sensor Supply Voltage
System Operation
The PEEC III ECM converts the battery voltage into 5 volt and 8 volt sensor supply voltages. These supply voltages are used to supply power and references voltages to the following sensors: rack position, timing position, engine speed, coolant temperature, boost pressure (in the transducer module), and oil pressure (in the transducer module). In addition to the sensor supply voltages for the boost and oil sensors, the transducer module has internal connections which pass the sensor supply voltages on to the rack sensor and the engine speed sensor.
NOTE: A short anywhere on the 8 volt sensor supply circuit will cause a loss of the engine speed signal resulting in an engine shutdown.

Functional Test
P-512: Engine Speed Sensor/Adjustment
System Operation
The PEEC III Engine Speed Sensor determines engine speed by magnetically detecting the teeth on the fuel pump camshaft retainer. PEEC III will not try to start the engine (either energize the shutoff or move the BTM) until it senses an engine speed signal. Engine speed is determined by the frequency, not the voltage, of the engine speed sensor output signal. The output frequency should be between 0 and 460 Hz. The sensor is supplied with 8 volts from the ECM through the Transducer Module.

15. Install the gasket, cover, and connector clip on the end of the housing (3).
16. Fasten the wiring connections in position on the clip assembly (1).
P-513: Shutoff Solenoid
System Operation
Although the rack solenoid (BTM) is capable of shutting the engine down, the shutoff solenoid provides a secondary means for PEEC III to shut down the engine. When the solenoid receives a voltage, the solenoids plunger is pulled in to allow the engine to run. When the solenoid loses the voltage, the plunger will release and the engine will shut down.
The shutoff solenoid should receive 6 to 12 VDC from the OEM crank relay during cranking, through the "crank" input to the ECM (pin 12 J4/P4), but no voltage from the crank relay while the engine is running. With the engine running, the voltage at the shutdown solenoid connector should be between 1.5 and 2.5 VDC (from pin A to pin B).

Functional Test
P-514: Boost Pressure Sensor/Calibration
System Operation
The PEEC III system monitors boost pressure with a sensor located inside the transducer module. The boost pressure sensor is supplied with electrical power by the 8 volt sensor supply and the 5 volt reference voltages from the ECM. The sensor can only be replaced by replacing the transducer module.
The boost pressure is used to reduce smoke emissions during acceleration. PEEC III limits the amount of fuel injected until certain boost pressures are reached. It does this by converting boost pressure to "FRC Rack" (as shown on the ECAP status display). The FRC Rack (Fuel Ratio Control) is then a limit on rack position based on boost pressure.
The inlet air hose from the air cleaner to the transducer module must be installed. The air inlet serves as a vent for the transducer module and is required for proper operation of the boost pressure sensor.
The PEEC III boost pressure sensor must be calibrated for a zero boost condition with the engine off. Calibration is accomplished electronically without the need for manual adjustments. The sensor must be recalibrated whenever the ECM or transducer module has been replaced in order to avoid poor engine response.
Schematic
Diagnostic Codes
Functional Test
Example Screen for Boost Pressure Sensor being Calibrated
P-515: Oil Pressure Sensor
System Operation
The PEEC III system monitors oil pressure with a sensor located in the transducer module. The oil pressure sensor is supplied with electrical power by the 8 volt sensor supply and the 5 volt reference voltages from the ECM.
The oil pressure sensor can measure oil pressure from 0 kPa (0 psi) to 312 kPa (45 psi). Any pressure greater than 312 kPa is displayed as 312 kPa. The oil pressure measured by PEEC III is about 10 kPa less than the galley oil pressure
After the engine has been running for about ten seconds, PEEC III will monitor oil pressure to ensure that it stays above certain limits. When it drops below the limits, PEEC III will limit engine speed to 1350 rpm, and generate Code 100-1 (low oil pressure).
Note that PEEC III uses oil pressure only as an engine protection function. Lack of oil pressure does not prevent PEEC III from starting the engine. PEEC III will still try to start the engine even if oil pressure is low.

P-516: Coolant Temperature Sensor
System Operation
The coolant temperature sensor measures the temperature of the engine coolant. The ECM uses this information to set the mode of operation.
Cold Mode is activated when coolant temperature is below 17° C (63° F). In Cold Mode engine power is limited, timing is retarded, and low idle is increased to approximately 1000 rpm, to improve warmup time. Once activated, Cold Mode will continue until coolant temperature rises above 28° C (68° F), or until the engine has been running for 12 minutes. The ECM then causes the engine to leave Cold Mode, low idle speed is returned to the rpm set by the Customer Specified Parameters, and normal engine operation is restored.
The sensor operates on 5 VDC, supplied through pin 30 of the ECM connector J4/P4. Note that the 5 volt reference and sensor common is the same as the other sensors of PEEC III.
Schematic
Diagnostic Codes
Functional Test
P-517: Retarder Enable Signal
System Operation
The Retarder Enable signal is provided by the ECM to indicate that conditions are acceptable for an engine retarder to operate. Operation of the retarder is inhibited during undesirable engine operating conditions (such as while the engine is being fueled).
With the cruise control On/Off switch in the Off position, the retarder is enabled under the following conditions:
Engine rpm is greater than 950 rpm and Drivers foot is off the throttle pedal and clutch pedal.
With the cruise control On/Off switch On, the operation of the retarder is also controlled through the customer parameter "Engine Retarder Mode". Programming the parameter to "Coast" allows retarding with the service brakes applied, but allows the engine to coast with no retarding after they are released. Programming the parameter to "Latch" allows retarding with the service brakes applied and keeps the retarder latched On after the service brakes are released (until rpm drops below 950 rpm or the driver presses the throttle or clutch pedal).
The retarder enable signal should be 12 VDC (nominal) to indicate that the retarder is enabled and 0 VDC (nominal) to indicate that it is disabled. The remainder of the engine retarder circuit is supplied by the OEM. In typical applications the retarder enable signal will operate a relay, which switches battery power to energize the retarder solenoids. An "Engine Brake On" switch will be wired in series with the relay and must be On before the brake will operate.
Schematic
Functional Test
P-520: Dynamic Rack Controls
System Operation
The primary function of the PEEC III system is to electronically govern the engine. The PEEC III governor senses engine speed (using the engine speed sensor on the fuel pump camshaft), then controls the fuel rack to achieve a desired rpm. This test is used to determine if the PEEC III governor is properly controlling the fuel rack.
Because this test requires monitoring several internal PEEC III variables, the ECAP should be used rather than the DDT. The variables displayed on the ECAP "Status Display" which are used in this test are:
- * Desired RPM
The rpm that the PEEC governor is trying to maintain. It is based on throttle position, engine speed, vehicle speed, Customer Specified Parameters and certain diagnostic codes. * Desired Rack
The position where the ECM wants to move the rack, based on the PEEC governor trying to maintain "Desired RPM". "Desired Rack" will not go farther than the "FRC Rack" or "Rated Rack". * Actual Rack
The ECM's interpretation of the Rack Position Sensor signal represents actual position of the rack, assuming the sensor signal is valid. If the rack controls (solenoid, servo, sensor, etc.) are working properly, "Actual Rack" should follow "Desired Rack". * FRC Rack
The rack limit based on the Fuel-Air-Ratio Control (FRC). FRC Rack increases with boost pressure (as sensed by the Boost Sensor in the Transducer Module). This effectively limits the fuel injected into the cylinders until there is enough air present in the cylinders (as indicated by boost pressure) to cleanly burn the fuel. "Desired Rack" will never go past "FRC Rack". * Rated Rack
The rack limit which defines the horsepower and torque curves for the engine based on engine rpm. This limit is derived from maps programmed into the Personality Module by the factory.
For a better understanding of PEEC III governing refer to Section 1: System Operation page 1-1. A brief description of each variable can be found in Section 6: Glossary of PEEC III Terms.

P-530: Dynamic Injection Timing
System Operation
Besides governing the engine, PEEC III also controls fuel injection timing to optimize performance and emissions. This test is used to determine if PEEC III is controlling timing properly.
The amount of timing advance that PEEC III desires is controlled by software in the personality module, and is dependent on rpm, load, and other operating conditions. To control timing, PEEC III increases voltage to the timing solenoid (BTM) to increase advance until it senses the actual timing advance is in the desired position
The following are internal PEEC III variables related to the injection timing which can be monitored on the ECAP status display:
- * Static Timing Specification
Fixed number of degrees determined by design of the fuel pump camshaft (determined injection timing with no advance). Note that the value displayed is the specification for static timing, NOT an electrically measured value. To determine whether static timing is actually adjusted according to this specification, refer to P-301, Static Injection Timing Adjustment By Pin Method. * Desired Timing Advance
Degrees of advance beyond static that PEEC desires. It is a function or rpm, load, etc. to optimize performance and emissions. * Estimated Dynamic Timing
Estimated actual injection timing. Calculated internally by PEEC.
Est. Dyn Timing = Static Timing Spec + Actual Timing Advance + Port effect (.2 deg/100 rpm). * Actual Timing Advance
Degrees of advance beyond static, as measured by the timing position sensor (assumes that the timing position sensor is properly calibrated).
For a better understanding of PEEC III timing refer to Section 1: System Operation page 1-1. A brief description of each variable can be found in Section 6: Glossary of PEEC III Terms.

3. Remove the timing solenoid (BTM) (3) from the timing advance housing.
4. Install 6V4186 Timing Pin (4) in the fuel injection pump housing as shown. Slowly rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise (as seen from the flywheel end of the engine) until timing pin (4) goes into the slot in the fuel pump camshaft.
NOTE: The following methods can be used to turn the engine crankshaft for installation of the timing pin:
Install Timing Pin in Fuel Injection Pump
(4) 6V4186 Timing Pin
- A. By using the 9S9082 Engine Turning Tool.
- B. By turning the flywheel ring gear if the housing has access.
- C. By turning on the crankshaft vibration damper bolts.
- B. By turning the flywheel ring gear if the housing has access.
With the timing pin installed in the fuel injection pump camshaft slot, slowly rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise (CCW) until the "Stop" is felt.
NOTE: Rotation of the crankshaft after the "Stop" is felt will cause the timing pin to shear off in the fuel injection pump camshaft slot.
This procedure makes sure that the timing advance power piston is in the fully retracted position (moved toward rear of engine). Movement can be checked through the top of the timing advance housing by watching the collar that is engaged by the timing solenoid (BTM).
Install Timing Gauge Assembly
(5) 1U5425 Timing Gauge Assembly (6) Bellcrank
5. Install the 1U5425 Timing Gauge Assembly (5) through the timing solenoid (BTM) hole on the inboard side of the timing advance housing.
The gauge assembly (block) must be positioned between the bearing on the power piston and the timing position sensor bellcrank (6). The gauge assembly (block) is inserted and rotated around the timing spool valve. Make sure that the tool is correctly seated on the bearing race and that the bellcrank is on the flat surface of the gauge block.
6. Connect the ECAP or DDT to the engine data link connector J8.
7. Turn key On, engine Off.
NOTE: Do not engage the starter or damage to the engine will be the result.
With the ECAP or DDT, select the status display that has "Timing Advance Position".
8. Read the "Timing Advance Position" on the ECAP or DDT display.
- A. If the "Timing Advance Position" reading is 13.7 ± 0.4 degrees, the timing position sensor is correctly calibrated.
- B. If the "Timing Advance Position" reading is not 13.7 ± 0.4 degrees, the timing position sensor needs adjustment as follows:
9. Keep electrical power to ECM. On the ECAP or DDT, select the "Calibration Timing Sensor" function (see Special Instructions for the service tool used, for more information, Form No. SEHS9349 or SEHS8743).
10. Use the 1U5536 Crowfoot Wrench to loosen the locknut (8).
11. Turn timing position sensor (7) in or out until the ECAP or DDT indicates the timing position sensor is calibrated. If the timing sensor is unable to calibrate, go to Functional Step 3 of P-531.
Adjustment of Timing Position Sensor
(7) Timing Position Sensor (8) Locknut
12. Tighten the locknut (8) to 55 ± 7 N·m (41 ± 5 lb ft).
13. Check the timing position calibration reading on the ECAP or DDT to make sure that the timing position sensor is still in calibration after tightening the locknut.
14. Turn key Off.
15. Disconnect the ECAP or DDT to the engine data link connector J8.
16. Remove the 1U5425 Timing Gauge Assembly.
17. Remove the 6V4186 Timing Pin (rotate the crankshaft in the clockwise direction as seen from the rear of the engine to release the pressure on the timing pin).
18. Install the timing solenoid (BTM) and make sure that the arm of the solenoid is assembled in the groove of the timing advance servo collar.
19. Connect timing solenoid (BTM) connector to the wiring harness (P6/J6). Install timing position sensor cover.
P-532: Timing Solenoid (BTM)
System Operation
The Timing Solenoid [or brushless torque motor (BTM)] is used to move the spool which advances and retards timing. The BTM is spring actuated to the retarded position. The BTM will move into the advance range when a voltage is applied.

(2) 6V4186 Timing Pin
3. Install 6V4186 Timing Pin (2) in the fuel injection pump housing as shown. Slowly rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise (as seen from the flywheel end of the engine) until timing pin (2) goes into the slot in the fuel pump camshaft.
Timing Position Sensor Cover
(3) Cover (4) Housing (5) Timing Solenoid (BTM)
4. Remove the timing position sensor cover (3) from housing (4).
5. Rotate the crankshaft clockwise 15 degrees as seen from the flywheel end of the engine. Observe the motion of the timing advance power piston through housing (4).
6. Rotate the crankshaft in the counterclockwise direction as seen from the rear of the engine until the timing advance power piston moves to its fully retracted position and light pressure is applied to the timing pin (2).
NOTE: Do not apply excessive force to rotate the engine with the timing pin installed. Excessive force will shear off the timing pin and/or cause fuel pump damage. Apply only enough force to retract the timing actuator power piston.
Install Timing Bolt
(6) 9S9082 Engine Turning Tool (7) Timing Bolt
7. Put timing bolt in the timing hole in the flywheel housing. If the bolt can be installed in the timing hole in the flywheel, the static injection timing of the fuel injection pump is correct.
8. If the timing bolt does not go into the timing hole in the flywheel, the timing is not correct. Perform the following steps to adjust the fuel injection pump static timing:
Automatic Timing Advance Unit
(Governor and Fuel Pump Drive Group) (8) Bolts
A. Remove timing solenoid (BTM) (5).
B. Remove timing advance housing (4).
C. Loosen the four bolts (8) on the timing advance. With the timing pin installed in the fuel pump and the timing bolt removed, turn the engine crank shaft clockwise as viewed from the rear of the engine a minimum of 30 degrees. Make sure that the power piston of the timing advance does not move from its fully retracted position.
D. Lightly tighten two of the four timing advance bolts to 2.3 N·m (21 lb ft). Finger tight only so as not to bend the timing pin.
E. Rotate the crankshaft counterclockwise as viewed from the rear of the engine (direction of rotation) slowly until the timing bolt can be installed in the flywheel. The number one piston is now at top dead center.
F. Tighten the four timing advance bolts (8) to a torque of 10 N·m (7 lb ft). Remove the timing pin from the fuel injection pump.
G. Tighten the four timing advance bolts to a torque of 55 ± 7 N·m (41 ± 5 lb ft). Remove the timing bolt from the flywheel.
H. Turn the crankshaft two complete revolutions counterclockwise as viewed from the rear of the engine to make sure that the timing advance piston is in the fully retracted position. Repeat step 6 and 7 to check the timing again to see if the timing pin will go into the groove in the fuel pump camshaft and the timing bolt will go into the flywheel.
I. If the timing is not correct repeat the Steps C through H again.
J. If the timing is correct, remove the timing bolt from the flywheel and remove the timing pin from the fuel pump.
Location of Screwdriver While Holding Bellcrank
K. Rotate the timing position sensor bellcrank clock wise by inserting the No. 2 Phillips screwdriver between the arm of the bellcrank in contact with the timing position sensor until the screwdriver can be inserted into the hole in the cover to hold the bellcrank in position.
Hold Timing Position Sensor Bellcrank In Position
L. Install the gasket and timing advance housing (4).
M. Remove the screwdriver to allow the bellcrank to contact the power piston.
9. Check the timing sensor position calibration as described in P-531: Timing Position Sensor/Calibration.
10. Install the timing solenoid (BTM). Make sure the arm of the timing solenoid is in the center groove of the control spool collar.
11. Install the timing advance position sensor cover (3).
P-540: Idle Shutdown Timer
System Operation
The idle shutdown timer is a feature which helps improve fuel consumption by limiting idling time. The timer may be programmed to shutdown the idling engine after a period of time. This "shutdown time" is a customer specified parameter, and may be programmed for any period from 3 to 60 minutes. Programming the time to zero disables the idle shutdown timer.
The timer is activated when the parking brake is set, vehicle speed is zero, and the engine is not under load. Ninety seconds before the programmed time is reached, the diagnostic lamp will begin to flash rapidly. If the driver moves the clutch pedal or brake pedal during this 90 second period, the timer will be overridden until is reset. A diagnostic code 71-00 will be set when the driver overrides the timer using the clutch or brake.
If the timer is activated and allowed to shutdown the engine, then a code 71-01 will be set. Code 71-01 merely records the event and does not indicate a fault in PEEC III.
NOTE: If any of the codes for vehicle speed are Active (Code 31 or 36), the idle shutdown timer Will Not Operate.

P-541: Multi-Torque
System Operation
Multi-Torque is an optional feature available with certain PEEC III engines. The feature is available only in certain personality modules.
The 310 Multi-Torque provides an otherwise standard 310 hp PEEC III engine with two different torque curves. In all gears except top gear, the engine performs as a standard 310 hp PEEC III. In top gear, however, the engine is provided with the torque of a standard 310 hp at 1800 rpm, but with the peak torque of 350 hp at 1150 rpm (see the following illustrations).
PEEC III determines whether the vehicle is in top gear by sensing the ratio of engine speed to vehicle speed. If the ratio of engine speed/vehicle speed is less than 26.6, the engine will perform like a standard 310 hp PEEC III.
The 350 Multi-Torque works just like the 310 Multi-Torque, except for two key differences. First, the multi-torque curve provides the engine with the standard 350 hp torque at 1800 rpm, and with the peak torque of a 400 hp at 1200 rpm (see the following illustration). Second, the multi-torque is in effect in the top two gears, when the ratio of engine speed/vehicle speed is less than 37.6, multi-torque is in effect. If it is greater than 37.6, the engine will perform like a standard 350 hp PEEC III.

P-542: Power Demand Cruise Control
System Operation
Power Demand Cruise Control (PDCC) is an optional feature available for certain PEEC III engines installed in Navistar chassis. PDCC is only compatible with certain drive trains in certain Navistar chassis. Refer to sales information for compatibility.
PDCC provides an otherwise standard 310 hp PEEC III engine with special torque curves. In normal operation (not in cruise), the engine performs as a standard 310 hp engine, except the torque is limited in deep lug (below 1100 rpm) in top gear due to drive train limitations. In cruise mode, the engine has the standard 310 hp torque at 1800 rpm, but has the peak torque of a 350 hp engine at 1150 rpm. Again, torque is limited in top gear while in deep lug to drive train limitations. See the following illustration.
