Diagnostic Trouble Codes That Relate to the Idle Shutdown Feature
J1939 Code Code Description Information
593-31 Engine Idle Shutdown has Shutdown Engine One of the following conditions has occurred:
The idle shutdown timer has shut down the engine.
The PTO shutdown timer has shut down the engine.
592-31 Engine Idle Shutdown Timer Override The operator has overridden the idle shutdown timer by operating the clutch pedal or the service brake pedal. Programmable Parameters"Idle Shutdown Time" - This "Timer Parameter" can be programmed for any period from 1 minute to 1440 minutes. The engine will shut down when the programmed period of time has expired and all of the conditions are met. The idle shutdown timer is deactivated if this parameter is programmed to "0"."Allow Idle Shutdown Override" - This "Timer Parameter" can be programmed to allow the idle shutdown timer to be overridden by the operator or by the ambient outside temperature."Idle Shutdown Timer Maximum RPM" - This "Timer Parameter" allows the idle shutdown timer to be reset if the engine speed exceeds the programmed value."Minimum Idle Shutdown Outside Temp" - This "Timer Parameter" sets the minimum temperature for the temperature based idle shutdown override. The engine will not shut down if the ambient outside temperature is below the programmed temperature."Maximum Idle Shutdown Outside Temp" - This "Timer Parameter" sets the maximum temperature for the temperature based idle shutdown override. The engine will not shut down if the ambient outside temperature is above the programmed temperature.System OperationThe idle shutdown timer can be temporarily disabled by the use of the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (ET). Temporarily disabling this feature avoids engine shutdowns when you are troubleshooting other systems. The use of this method eliminates the need to temporarily alter the programmable parameters. Set the value of the "Idle Shutdown Timer" setting to "Off" in order to disable the timer. Access this setting by selecting the following menu items: "Diagnostics", "Diagnostic Tests" and "System Troubleshooting Settings". Be sure to set this parameter to "On" before returning the engine to service.The idle shutdown timer is activated when all of the following conditions are met regardless of the position of the parking brake:
The vehicle speed is 0.
The engine is not under load.Driver Alert Function - The check engine lamp rapidly flashes for 90 seconds before the programmed time expires. The check engine lamp rapidly flashes for 30 seconds before the programmed period of time if the programmed period of time is "1" minute. During this time period, the following conditions can disable the timer:
The clutch pedal is depressed.
The service brake pedal is depressed.The Engine Control Module (ECM) shuts down the engine but not the vehicle electrical system when the idle shutdown timer expires. The "Engine Shutdown Output" can be used to shut down the vehicle electrical system when the idle shutdown timer expires.If the following diagnostic code is active, the "Idle Shutdown Timer" will not operate.
