Event Codes
Connect the Caterpillar Electronic Technician (Cat ET) and check for an engine derate. Troubleshoot any event codes that are present before continuing with this procedure.Starting Aids
Air Inlet Heater
Verify that the engine has exited "Cold Mode". Verify correct operation of the air inlet heater. For additional information on the air inlet heater, refer to Troubleshooting, "Air Inlet Heater Circuit - Test".Oil Grade Plugs
Ensure that the correct oil grade plug is installed. The oil grade plug should match with the oil that is installed in the engine. Do not program the "Engine Oil Weight" with Cat ET.Throttle Signal
The throttle signal is transmitted over the CAN data link. If the data link is not working properly, refer to Troubleshooting, "CAN Data Link Circuit - Test".Turbocharger Outlet Pressure Sensor or Atmospheric Pressure Sensor
Monitor the status of "Fuel Position", "Rated Fuel Limit", and "FRC Fuel Limit" on Cat ET while the engine is operating under full load. These parameters should reflect the information below.
Table 1
"Fuel Position" = "Rated Fuel Limit"    
AND    
"Fuel Position" < "FRC Fuel Limit"    If "Fuel Position" equals "Rated Fuel Limit" and "Fuel Position" is less than "FRC Fuel Limit", the electronics are operating correctly. Otherwise, proceed with the next Step.
Monitor the status of "Boost Pressure" and "Atmospheric Pressure" for normal operation on Cat ET. When the engine is not running, "Boost Pressure" should be 0 kPa (0 psi).
Verify that the turbocharger outlet pressure sensor is operating properly.Fuel Supply
Check the fuel lines for the following problems: restrictions, collapsed lines and pinched lines. If problems are found with the fuel lines, repair the lines and/or replace the lines.
Check the fuel tank for foreign objects which may block the fuel supply.
Check for air in the low pressure fuel supply system if any of the following procedures have been performed:
Replacement of the fuel filters
Service on the low pressure fuel supply circuit
Replacement of unit injectors
Purge air from the low pressure fuel supply circuit. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Fuel System - Prime" for the correct procedure.Note: A sight glass in the low pressure supply line is helpful in diagnosing air in the fuel.
Check fuel quality. In temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F), check for solidified fuel (wax). Refer to Special Publication, SEBD0717, "Diesel Fuels And Your Engine".
Check the fuel pressure during engine cranking. Check the fuel pressure on the outlet side of the fuel filter. Refer to Specifications for correct pressure values. If the fuel pressure is low, replace the fuel filters. If the fuel pressure is still low, check the following items: fuel transfer pump, fuel transfer pump coupling and fuel pressure regulating valve.Air Inlet and Exhaust System
Clean plugged air filters or replace plugged air filters.
Check the air inlet and exhaust system for restrictions and/or leaks. Refer to Testing and Adjusting, "Air Inlet and Exhaust System".Accessory Equipment
Check all accessory equipment for problems that may create excessive load on the engine. Repair any damaged components or replace any damaged components.
