TP-6079 3/00 25Section 6 Component Troubleshooting
Component Ohmmeter Connections Procedure Results
Main field (rotor). Disconnect the P10 and P11
connectors and connect the
ohmmeter to P10-1 and P10-2
leads.
Place the ohmmeter on the
Rx1scale.
Low resistance indicates
shorted rotor windings. High
resistance indicates an open
in the rotor windings. See
Section 1, Specifications.
B1/B2 stator windings. Connect the ohmmeter to the
P11-1 and P11-2 leads.
Note: Disconnect P11 and J11
to perform this test.
Place the ohmmeter on the
Rx1scale.
Low resistance indicates
shorted B1/B2 windings. High
resistance indicates an open
in the B1/B2 windings. See
Section 1, Specifications.
P1 ground connection. Connect the ohmmeter to the
P1-9 and ground.
Place the ohmmeter on the
Rx1scale.
If functional, zero ohms
(continuity). Any other reading
indicates a poor ground
connection.
Low oil level (LOL)
safety shutdown switch.
Connect the ohmmeter to the
P4-6 and engine block (ground).
Place the ohmmeter on the
R x 1000 scale. The oil level
in the engine must be drained
for this test. Replace the
engine oil after this test.
If functional, zero ohms
(continuity). Then, disconnect
LOL switch lead and isolate
the terminal. Meter reading
should show an open circuit.
Figure 6-3 Engine/Generator Component Testing, Relay Controller
6.2 Remote Panel (optional)
Kohler Co. offers a remote panel with a start/stop switch
and a hourmeter for connection to the generator set.
If difficulty with the remote operation occurs, test the
switch. See Figure 6-4 and Section 8.4 for
troubleshooting the remote start/stop switch.
Component Ohmmeter Connections Procedure Results
Start/stop switch. Remote switch: yellow/red
wire terminal and black wire
terminal.
Place the ohmmeter on the
R x 1 scale. Place the rocker
switch in the START position.
Continuity indicates a
functional switch. No reading
indicates an inoperative
switch. Replace the switch
Remote switch: grey/black
wire terminal and black wire
terminal.
Place the ohmmeter on the
R x 1 scale. Place the rocker
switch to the STOP position.
Continuity indicates a
functional switch. No reading
indicates an inoperative
switch. Replace the switch
