TROUBLE CODES
Working Procedure
Try to form a comprehensive view of the problem. Start by asking the operator the following:
Symptoms
Conditions in which the fault occurs
How often the fault occurs
If the trouble codes have been erased
Then, extract all the stored trouble codes.
Compare them and try to conclude the probable cause of the fault before taking any other measures. The
trouble codes are stored in the order they were registered.
Diagnostic Trouble Codes
Some conditions will produce an alarm but do not generate a trouble code. An example is engine overheat
(over 108°C) caused by an obstructed seawater inlet. The overheat alarm will sound and the engine torque
will be reduced to proect the engine, but no code will be set.
Conditions that set a trouble code are generally caused by a sensor or other component sending and out of
normal range signal to the ECU. An example is a disconnected intake air pressure sensor which would set
a P0237 code.
