UnclassifiedElectrical
What This Code Means
No AC Output Voltage; Unstable Voltage with Stable Engine; Unbalanced Output Voltage; Unbalanced generator output voltage; Unstable voltage with stable engine (genset); Excess white smoke at start-up (cold); Excess white smoke at start-up (warm); Genset starts but stops after switch releases; High/Low AC Output; Unstable Voltage; Unbalanced Generator Output Voltage
Possible Causes
- •Broken or loose wires
- •Control plugs not fully seated
- •Load breaker open
- •Improper output lead connection
- •Sense leads not fully seated in connector to control
- •Incorrect output lead configuration
- •Imbalanced load at generator terminals
- •Faulty generator lead connections
- •Faulty generator stator windings
- •Faulty connections to voltage regulator
- •Faulty regulator wiring harness
- •Faulty voltage regulator
- •Faulty glow plugs
- •Faulty engine coolant heater
- •Incorrect valve settings
- •Incorrect injection pump timing
- •Low engine compression
- •Low engine operating temperature
- •Quadrature resistance not open to ground
- •Load imbalance
Suggested Actions
- 1Check that the load breaker is closed
- 2Check for broken or loose wires
- 3Check that control plugs are fully seated
- 4Evaluate fault codes
- 5Check for proper output lead connection
- 6Check genset output voltage
- 7Check voltage at line side of genset breaker
- 8Check voltage at load side of genset breaker
- 9Check that sense leads are fully seated in connector to control
- 10Check load at genset breaker
- 11Check output lead configuration
- 12Troubleshoot load at generator terminals
- 13Troubleshoot generator lead connections
- 14Troubleshoot generator stator windings
- 15Check connections to voltage regulator
- 16Check regulator wiring harness
- 17Check voltage regulator
- 18Check glow plugs
- 19Check engine coolant heater
- 20Check valve settings
