Test Procedure
| Tools Needed | ||
| 9U-7330 | Multimeter Multimeter is optional for frequency and duty cycle measurements. |
1 |
| 7X-1710 | Multimeter Probe Group | 1 |
This procedure requires the measurement of the frequency and duty cycle of the sensor signal. Use the 9U-7330 Digital Multimeter in order to measure the frequency and the duty cycle. In order to measure frequency, turn the rotary switch to AC volts. Then, press the "HZ" button once. In order to measure the duty cycle, turn the rotary switch to AC volts and press the "HZ" button twice.
Note: The 6V-7070 Digital Multimeter does not measure the frequency or the duty cycle. However, the DC voltages are listed in the Sensor Specifications chart as an alternative to measuring the frequency and the duty cycle. The 6V-7070 Digital Multimeter can be used for measurements of the DC voltage.
- Perform Initial Preparations.
- Locate the suspect sensor.
- Identify the sensor wires and connector contacts. See the preceding System Schematics.
- DO NOT DISCONNECT ANY HARNESS CONNECTORS AT THIS TIME.
- Use the 7X-1710 Multimeter Probe in order to make future measurements by probing through the back of the harness connectors.
- Check Sensor Supply Voltage.
- Turn the engine control switch (ECS) to OFF/RESET. Then, turn the ECS to STOP.
- Measure the sensor supply voltage at the sensor connector. Perform the measurement from contact "A" to contact "B" on the sensor connector.
Expected Result: The voltage should be from 7.5 to 8.5 DCV.
Results:
- OK - The voltage is from 7.5 to 8.5 DCV. Proceed to 4.
- NOT OK - The voltage is equal to battery positive. The sensor supply is shorted to battery positive in the engine harness. Troubleshoot and repair the engine harness. STOP.
- NOT OK - The voltage is not from 7.5 to 8.5 DCV and the voltage is not equal to battery positive. Proceed to 3.
- OK - The voltage is from 7.5 to 8.5 DCV. Proceed to 4.
- Check The Status Of The Fault.
Observe the GSC display.
Expected Result: A CID 269 is active.
Results:
- OK - A CID 269 is active. Go to the procedure in Testing And Adjusting, "Troubleshooting Diagnostic Codes". STOP.
- NOT OK - A CID 269 is NOT active. The harness is faulty. Troubleshoot and repair the harness. STOP.
- OK - A CID 269 is active. Go to the procedure in Testing And Adjusting, "Troubleshooting Diagnostic Codes". STOP.
- Check The Sensor Signal.
The ECS remains in the STOP position.
- Measure the frequency and the duty cycle of the signal at the sensor connector. Conduct the measurements from contact "C" to contact "B" of the sensor connector.
- Make a note of the measurements.
Expected Result: The measured frequency and duty cycle should agree with the values that are listed in the Sensor Specifications chart.
Results:
- OK - The measurements agree. The sensor is functioning correctly. Proceed to 5.
- NOT OK - The measurements DO NOT agree. Proceed to 7.
- OK - The measurements agree. The sensor is functioning correctly. Proceed to 5.
- Check The Signal At The GSC Harness Connector.
- Measure the frequency and the duty cycle of the signal at the GSC harness connector.
- For the oil pressure signal, measure the resistance from contact 8 to contact 31.
- For the coolant temperature signal, measure the resistance from contact 7 to contact 31.
- For the oil temperature signal, measure the resistance from contact 14 to contact 31.
Expected Result: The measured frequency and duty cycle should agree with the values that were measured in Step 4.
Results:
- OK: The measurements agree. The sensor is functioning correctly. Proceed to 7.
- NOT OK - The measurements DO NOT agree. The harness is defective. Troubleshoot and repair the engine harness. STOP.
- For the oil pressure signal, measure the resistance from contact 8 to contact 31.
- Measure the frequency and the duty cycle of the signal at the GSC harness connector.
- Check The Status Of The Fault.
- Check if sensor fault codes are still active.
Expected Result: Sensor fault codes are still active.
Results:
- OK - The GSC is faulty. Replace the GSC. See Testing And Adjusting, "EMCP Electronic Control (Generator Set) - Replace". STOP.
- NOT OK - If sensor fault codes are NOT active, check the connectors and wiring. See Testing And Adjusting, "Electrical Connector - Inspect". STOP.
- OK - The GSC is faulty. Replace the GSC. See Testing And Adjusting, "EMCP Electronic Control (Generator Set) - Replace". STOP.
- Check if sensor fault codes are still active.
- Check The Engine Harness.
- Disconnect the engine harness from the sensor.
- Disconnect the GSC+ from the harness.
- Check the harness for an open circuit. A correct circuit will be approximately 5 ohms or less.
- Check the signal wire for a short to battery positive, battery negative and sensor supply. A correct circuit will be greater than 5000 ohms.
Expected Result: For Step 7.c, the resistance should be 5 ohms or less. For Step 7.d, the resistance should be greater than 5000 ohms.
Results:
- OK - All resistance measurements are correct. Therefore, replace the sensor. STOP.
- NOT OK - One or more resistance measurements are NOT correct. Troubleshoot and repair the engine harness. STOP.
- OK - All resistance measurements are correct. Therefore, replace the sensor. STOP.
