TABLE 9-1. TROUBLESHOOTING GENSET FAULTS (CONT.)
Some genset service procedures present hazards that can result in severe personal
injury or death. Only trained and experienced service personnel with knowledge of fuels, electricity,
and machinery hazards should perform genset service. See Safety Precautions.
Accidental or remote starting can cause severe personal injury or death. Before removing a panel or
access door, disconnect the negative (−) cable from the battery to prevent the engine from starting.
WARNING
STARTING FAULT—CODE NO. 32
(The genset Controller could not detect cranking speed [quadrature zero crossings] for 3 seconds)
Corrective Action: Refer to Pages A-1 through A-5, as appropriate.
1. De-energize the PTO clutch, if so equipped.
2. Have the propulsion engines running while trying to start the genset. Their charging alternators
may be able to maintain a high enough battery terminal voltage to start the genset.
3. Service as necessary by cleaning and tightening battery connections, recharging or replacing the
battery or replacing damaged battery cables (p. 4-2).
4. Change the engine oil to oil of the proper viscosity for the ambient temperature. High oil viscosity
can slow down cranking speed.
5. Check for proper operation of starter relay K4 and replace if necessary (p. 5-9).
6. Disconnect connector P3 (green) from the genset controller (Page 5-1) and measure resistance be-
tween Pin 10 and K4-86 and between. K4-85 and CB2-2. If either lead is open, check for a missing,
bent or corroded pin or faulty wiring and repair as necessary.
7. Service the starter motor (p. 6-6). See Table 6-1 for the appropriate engine workshop manual.
8. Service the engine if the crankshaft is unusually hard to rotate manually. See Table 6-1 for the ap-
propriate engine workshop manual.
9. Replace the genset controller (p. 5-1).
CONTROL CARD FAILURE−EE—CODE NO. 35
(During startup the genset Controller detected a EE memory error)
Corrective Action: Replace the genset controller (p. 5-1).
