Refer to Figure 8-6 for troubleshooting information on the remote start panels.
Component Ohmmeter Connections Procedure Results
Remote start/stop switch
Remote switch: yellow/red
wire terminal and black wire
terminal.
Place the ohmmeter on the
R x 1 scale. Press the rocker
switch to the START position.
Continuity, the switch is
functional.
Remote switch: grey/black
wire terminal and black wire
terminal
.
Place the ohmmeter on the
R x 1 scale. Press the rocker
switch to the STOP position.
Continuity, the switch is
functional.
Generator set ON light,
gauge lights, DC voltmeter,
and hourmeter
Connect the red test lead to
P3-4 and black test lead to
P3-1.
If 12 volts DC is present and
the component does not
function after the J3 is
connected to the controller
P3, replace the component.
Place the controller rocker
switch to the START position.
Stop the generator set when
the test is complete.
Voltmeter setting 12 volts or
greater. Generator set does
not need to be running, just
cranking for this test.
Note: If the hourmeter is not
illuminated, test by
connecting it to a 12-volt
battery.
Note: The hourmeter is
polarity sensitive.
Water temperature gauge Connect the red test lead to
P3-4 (socket side) and black
test lead to P3-2 (socket
side).
Start the generator set for the
test. If 0.5--12-volts DC is
present and the gauge does
not function after the J3 is
connected to controller,
replace the gauge.
Voltmeter setting 12 volts or
greater.
Oil pressure gauge Connect the red test lead to
P3-4 (socket side) and black
test lead to P3-3 (socket
side).
Start the generator set for the
test. If 0.5--12-volts DC is
present and the gauge does
not function after the J3 is
connected to the controller,
replace the gauge.
Voltmeter setting 12 volts or
greater.
Note: Check continuity of gauge wiring and extension harness before replacing components.
