SHUTOFF GP-ELECTRICAL 7C2187 - Caterpillar

Operation Description:The spare analog inputs are connected to resistive type sensors either on the engine, generator, or supporting systems. The EMCP 3 converts the resistive sensor values into levels, temperatures, and pressures depending on how the input is configured. Six programmable thresholds are provided. The thresholds include both high and low for each of the three supported data types. The appropriate thresholds are selected based on the spare analog input type configuration set points. The EMCP 3 will also detect sensor diagnostics for shorted high and shorted low conditions.An active spare analog input can be programmed to cause an alarm or a shutdown. Refer to System Operation, RENR7902, "Spare Analog Input Programming" for information for programming spare inputs.The analog input code is generated when the measured spare analog input value goes above or below the programmed threshold for a specified duration.Test Step 1. PERFORM THE INITIAL CHECK.
Use the Cat ET in order to check for active diagnostic codes on the engine ECM. If any codes are present, first, correct the problem that caused the codes.Expected Result:No other diagnostic codes or indicators are active on the engine ECM.Results:
OK - No other diagnostic codes or indicators are active. Proceed to Test Step 2.
NOT OK - Another engine ECM diagnostic code is active.Repair: Exit the procedure. Troubleshoot the active code or indicator. Refer to the engine troubleshooting manual for your particular generator set.STOPTest Step 2. CHECK THE SET POINTS.
View the spare analog Input set points. Make a note of the set points. See Testing and Adjusting, RENR7902, "Electronic Control Module (Generator Set) - Configure". Compare the set points against the default set points of the particular generator set.Expected Result:The set points are correct.Results:
OK - The set points are correct for your particular generator set. Proceed to Test Step 3.
NOT OK - The set points are NOT correct.Repair: Change the set points to the desired values. Reset the generator set. Resume normal operation and verify that the problem has been corrected.STOPTest Step 3. CHECK THE ANALOG INPUT DEVICE WIRING.
Check the wiring to the corresponding spare analog input for an unwanted short circuit. The short can be to the battery negative ("B-"). The short can be to the battery positive terminal ("B+"). Carefully check ALL wires that are connected to any analog input for abrasion or worn spots in the insulation. Any abrasion or worn spots could cause a short. Check the wires in the generator control panel. Check the wires in the engine harness. Refer to the appropriate wiring diagrams for the circuit that is being checked. Expected Result:The wiring is correct.Results:
OK - No problems can be found with the analog input wiring. Proceed to Test Step 4.
NOT OK - The analog input wiring is defective.Repair: Repair the wiring or replace the wiring. Proceed to Test Step 4.Test Step 4. CHECK IF THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE REMAINS.
Inspect the harness connectors and clean the contacts of the harness connectors.
Reconnect all harness connectors.
Reset the generator set.
Operate the generator set.
Check the status of the diagnostic code.Expected
