Troubleshooting Test Steps Values Results
1. Coolant Level
A. Check that the coolant is filled to the correct level.
Note: If the coolant level is too low, air will get into the cooling system. Air in the cooling system will cause a reduction in coolant flow.
Coolant
Result: The coolant level is low.
Repair: Fill the coolant system to the correct level. Refer to the Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Coolant Level - Check".
Result: The coolant level is OK.
Proceed to Test Step 2.
2. Air-to-Air Aftercooler (ATAAC)
A. Check the ATAAC for debris or damage.
Note: Debris between the fins of the ATAAC core restricts air flow through the core.
ATAAC
Result: The ATAAC has excessive debris or is damaged.
Repair: Clear the debris from the ATAAC or replace the ATAAC.
Result: The ATAAC is OK.
Proceed to Test Step 3.
3. Cooling Fan
A. Check the operation of the cooling fan.
Note: A fan that is not turning at the correct speed can result in insufficient airflow through the ATAAC core.
Cooling fan
Result: The cooling fan is not operating correctly.
Repair: Investigate the cause of the incorrect fan operation
Result: The cooling fan is operating correctly.
Proceed to Test Step 4.
4. Air Intake and Exhaust System
A. Check the air intake and exhaust system for the following defects:
Blockages
Restrictions
Damage to the air intake ducts and hoses
Loose connections and air leaks
Air intake and exhaust
Result: The air intake or exhaust system is blocked, restricted, damaged, or loose.
Repair: Make all necessary repairs to the air intake system.
Result: The air intake and exhaust system is OK.
