JET AS-PISTON COOLING 1979391 - Caterpillar

System Operation Description:Use this procedure to troubleshoot the electrical system if a problem is suspected with the exhaust temperature sensors or if any one of the diagnostic codes in Table 1 is active or easily repeated.
Table 1
Diagnostic Codes Table    
Code and Description    Conditions which Generate this Code    System Response    
827-8 Left Exhaust Temperature Sensor abnormal frequency, pulse width, or period     The Electronic Control Module (ECM) detects a sensor frequency that is greater than 1000 Hz or less than 150 Hz.
The ECM detects a duty cycle that is greater than 90 percent or a duty cycle that is less than 10 percent.     The value of the parameter is set to zero.
The code is logged.    
828-8 Right Exhaust Temperature Sensor abnormal frequency, pulse width, or period     The ECM detects a sensor frequency that is greater than 1000 Hz or less than 150 Hz.
The ECM detects a duty cycle that is greater than 90 percent or a duty cycle that is less than 10 percent.    System OperationThe PWM sensors provide a signal to the engine's ECM. The sensors receive a 8.0 0.4 VDC regulated voltage from the ECM.The sensor's wires are routed from the ECM to the sensor connectors. The following list gives the terminal locations for the sensor connector.
Terminal A 8 V supply
Terminal B sensor return
Terminal C sensor signalThe ECM provides short circuit protection for the internal power supply. A short circuit to the battery will not damage the internal power supply.

Connect Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET) to the service tool connector.
Turn the Engine Control Switch (ECS) to the STOP position. Turn the main disconnect switch to the ON position.
Monitor the diagnostic codes on Cat ET. Check and record any diagnostic codes.Note: Wait at least 30 seconds in order for the diagnostic codes to become active.
Determine if a -8 diagnostic code is active for one of the exhaust temperature sensors.Note: A diagnostic code that is logged several times is an indication of an intermittent problem. Most intermittent problems are the result of a bad connection between a socket and a pin in a connector or a bad connection between a wire and a terminal.Expected Result:No diagnostic code is active for the exhaust temperature sensors.Results:
OK - No diagnostic codes are active.Repair: If the problem is intermittent, refer to Troubleshooting, "Electrical Connectors - Inspect" for the correct procedures for inspecting electrical connectors.STOP
Not OK - A -8 diagnostic code is active or the diagnostic code is logged several times. Proceed to Test Step 2.Test Step 2. Check the Digital Supply Voltage at the Sensor Connector
