P1 ECM connector (P1-17) Fuel filter differential pressure switch (P1-29) Digital returnTest Step 1. Inspect Electrical Connectors and Wiring
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.
Thoroughly inspect the ECM connectors J1/P1. Inspect the connector for the fuel filter differential pressure switch. Refer to Troubleshooting, "Inspecting Electrical Connectors" for details.
Perform a 45 N (10 lb) pull test on each of the wires in the ECM connector that are associated with the circuit.
Check the ECM connector (allen head screw) for the proper torque of 6.0 N m (55 lb in).
Check the customer connector (allen head screw) for the proper torque of 2.25 0.25 N m (20 2 lb in).
Check the harness and the wiring for abrasion and for pinch points.Expected Result:All connectors, pins, and sockets are completely coupled and/or inserted. The harness and wiring are free of corrosion, of abrasion, and of pinch points.Results:
OK - The harness and wiring are OK. Proceed to Test Step 2.
Not OK - There is a problem in the connectors and/or wiring.Repair: Repair the connectors or wiring and/or replace the connectors or wiring.STOPTest Step 2. Check the Status of the Fuel Filter Differential Pressure Switch on the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET)
Disconnect connector J106/P106.
Use a suitable piece of wire to short P106-1 and P106-2 together.
Connect Cat ET to the cab service tool connector J42. Start Cat ET.
Turn the keyswitch to the ON position.
Observe the status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch on Cat ET.
Remove the wire short.
Observe the status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch on Cat ET.
Turn the keyswitch to the OFF position.Expected Result:The status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch is "NORMAL" when the short is installed. The status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch is "HIGH" when the wire is removed.Results:
OK - The status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch is "NORMAL" when the short is installed. The status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch is "HIGH" when the wire is removed. The status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch is correct.Repair: Replace the fuel filter. If the problem is not resolved, replace the fuel filter differential pressure switch. Verify that the fuel filter differential pressure switch solves the problem before you permanently install the new fuel filter differential pressure switch.STOP
Not OK - The status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch is not "NORMAL" when the short is installed. The status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch is not "HIGH" when the wire is removed. The status of the fuel filter differential pressure switch is not correct. There is a problem in the harness. Proceed to Test Step 3.Test Step 3. Check for a Short Circuit in the Wiring Harness
Disconnect ECM connector J1/P1.
Measure the resistance between P1-17 and every pin on ECM connector P1.
Measure the resistance between P1-17 and engine ground.
Measure the resistance between P1-29 and the engine ground.Expected Result:The resistance is greater than 20,000 Ohms.Results:
OK
