CONTROL CARD FAILURE – FAULT CODE 35
WARNING
Some genset service procedures present hazards that can result in severe personal injury
or death. Only trained and experienced persons with knowledge of fuels, electricity, and machinery
hazards should perform genset service. See Safety Precautions.
Logic: EEPROM (programming variables) error during self test
Possible Causes: Faulty program
Diagnosis & Solution:
1. Verify that Last Fault is FC 35: Yes, continue diagnosis; No, troubleshoot actual last fault.
2. Replace control.
GENSET STOPPED WITHOUT FAULT CONDITION – FAULT CODE 36
WARNING
Some genset service procedures present hazards that can result in severe personal injury
or death. Only trained and experienced persons with knowledge of fuels, electricity, and machinery
hazards should perform genset service. See Safety Precautions.
Logic: RPM less than 500 and Sense Voltage S1–S2 at 0 VAC when no other fault condition occurred
Possible Causes: Auto Gen Start (AGS), fuel supply, air fuel mixture, exhaust system, loads, Inverter/Char-
ger, choke, demand regulator, carburetor, generator drive system, generator windings, ignition, wire connec-
tions
Diagnosis & Repair:
1. Verify that Last Fault is FC 36: Yes, continue diagnosis; No, troubleshoot actual last fault.
2. Verify whether AGS stopped genset: Yes, disable AGS or explain AGS function to customer (see
PSB-666); No, continue diagnosis.
3. Verify engine rotation manually: repair engine damage as necessary.
4. Disconnect genset control P1 connector, verify P1 pins are fully inserted and inspect pin condition per
PSB–676: insert, repair or replace pins as necessary.
5. Reconnect P1 connector and test run genset for fault occurrence: repair or replace pins in connector as
necessary.
6. Check air filter cleanliness; replace air filter as necessary.
7. Check for blocked or damaged exhaust system: repair or replace exhaust components as necessary.
8. Measure AC current while running genset with vehicle loads: identify faulty or short cycling loads.
9. Determine battery charge rate (typical default is 80 percent): if adjustable reduce to 30 percent.
10. Measure genset load capability with shop load bank.
11. HGJAD only – Run genset in Engine Run Only and externally excite field F1–F2 with 12 VDC or 24 VDC
and measure main and quadrature winding AC output.
12. Non EFI – Verify genset operation and outputs with Break-Out Tool 420–0603 and Instruction Sheet
R1098.
13. Measure AC frequency while changing engine rpm to determine if frequency response matches engine
rpm response: repair damaged generator drive system as necessary.
