INVALID SET CONFIGURATION – FAULT CODE 37
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: Configuration is determined by ratio of quadrature frequency / ignition speed
Possible Causes: Wire connections, windings, ignition system, drive belt slippage, generator drive system
Diagnosis & Repair:
1. Verify that Last Fault is FC 37: Yes, continue diagnosis; No, troubleshoot actual last fault.
2. Alternating FC 37 and FC 47: Magneto gap to wide: reset magneto gap, retest.
3. HGJAD only – Run genset in Engine Run Only and externally excite field with 12 VDC or 24 VDC and
measure main and quadrature winding AC output.
4. Non EFI only – If the genset will not stay running measure genset frequency, quadrature winding and
main winding voltages using Break-Out Tool 420–0603 and Instruction Sheet R1098.
5. Measure AC frequency while changing engine rpm to determine if frequency response matches engine
rpm response: repair damaged generator drive system as necessary.
6. Measure field, quadrature and main winding resistance: clean slip rings, replace brushes, repair harness
and replace rotor or stator as necessary.
7. Measure field, quadrature and main winding resistance to ground: clean slip rings, replace brushes, re-
pair harness and replace rotor or stator as necessary.
8. Measure field, quadrature and main winding resistance to each other: clean slip rings, replace brushes,
repair harness and replace rotor or stator as necessary.
9. Check brush alignment per PSB-682a.
10. Verify that spark plug cables are secure on spark plugs: reconnect or replace as necessary.
11. Inspect ignition kill leads in harness and at connector P1: repair or replace lead, terminal or pins as neces-
sary.
12. Test Magnetos
A. Disconnect Connector P1.
B. Connect positive(+) meter lead to chassis ground.
C. HGJAA, D, E, F – Measure continuity to negative lead at pin P1–4 and P1–5: replace magnetos as
necessary.
D. HGJAB, C – Measure continuity to negative lead at pin P1–15 and P1–20: replace magnetos as nec-
essary.
13. Measure spark plug gap: set gap or replace spark plugs as necessary.
14. Verify ignition spark condition.
15. Inspect spark plug lead, kill lead terminal at magneto and measure magneto air gap: replace terminals,
set gap or replace magnetos as necessary.
16. Dealers contact Distributor for technical support, Distributors contact factory for technical support.
