Electronic control module (ECM) calibration is malfunctioning |
Verify the ECM calibration is correct. Check the calibration revision history for applicable fixes to the calibration stored in the ECM. Refer to the calibration history spreadsheet Click here to see ecm_calibration_rev_history.xls on QuickServe™ Online or the INCAL™ CD-ROM. Compare the calibration stored in the ECM with the engine rating and Control Parts List (CPL), Bulletin 4021326 or 4021327. If necessary, calibrate the ECM. Refer to Procedure |

Engine is operating in a unique application with a specific calibration |
Check the Performance Options of the calibration stored in the electronic control module (ECM). Use INSITE™ electronic service tool and INCAL™ Calibration DVD_ROM to check the Performance Options section for the specific calibration under Calibration Selection. If the Performance Option reads “Vacuum Truck”, the condition may be normal. A slight oscillation/surging of the engine speed during unloaded PTO is a normal consequence of these unique calibrations. |
