Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting can be difficult. On the following pages there is a list of possible problems. To make a repair to a problem, make reference to the cause and correction.This list of problems, causes and corrections will only give an indication of where a possible problem can be, and what repairs are needed. Normally, more or other repair work is needed beyond the recommendations in the list. Remember that a problem is not normally caused only by one part, but by the relation of one part with other parts. This list can not give all possible problems and corrections. The serviceman must find the problem and its source, then make the necessary repairs.1. Contactor Switch for Water Temperature Does Not Activate Shutoff Solenoid.2.

3406B Linkage Adjustment
1. Put actuator output shaft (5) in the SHUTOFF position (full clockwise). Install lever (6) so angle (4) between the lever and vertical is 18°.2. Hold lever (6) in the SHUTOFF position. Adjust rod assembly (3) so that when it is connected to lever (1) the angle (2), between the lever and vertical, is 28°.3. Check to make sure the linkage moves freely.

1. Remove th cover of the contactor switch and disconnect the wires from the normally closed (B or Blue) terminal.2. Disconnect the oil supply line from the contactor switch and install the test equipment as shown.3. Connect the 5K3772 Hose from tee (10) to the contactor switch. Put the end of the other 5K3772 Hose in a pan.4. Connect the 8S4627 Circuit Tester between the common terminal and the normally closed terminal. The light of the circuit tester will be activated.5. Close shutoff fitting (7) and open shutoff fitting (6).6. Look at the pressure gauge, start the engine and run it at low idle rpm. The light must go out, with an increase in oil pressure, at the specification of the switch.7. Close shutoff fitting (6) and slowly open shutoff fitting (7). The light must be activated, with a decrease in oil pressure, at the specification of the
