Circuit/System Testing
LNF Engine
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the generator B+ terminal 1 X2 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the generator.
- Ignition ON, test for less than 1 V between the control circuit terminal B and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- Engine running, command the L-Terminal ON to 85% with a scan tool. Test for greater than 3 V between the control circuit terminal B and ground.
- If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the generator.
LE8 or LE9 Engine
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the generator B+ terminal 1 X2 and ground.
- If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector at the generator.
- Ignition ON, test for 4.5-5.5 V between the control circuit terminal 1 and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.
- If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the ECM.
- If the circuits test normal, replace the generator.
