UEN00447-00 40 Troubleshooting
The aim of troubleshooting is to pinpoint the basic cause of the failure, to carry out repairs swiftly, and to prevent
reoccurrence of the failure.
When carrying out troubleshooting, and important point is of course to understand the structure and function.
However, a short cut to effective troubleshooting is to ask the operator various questions to form some idea of
possible causes of the failure that would produce the reported symptoms.

1. Procedure for troubleshooting to be taken when action code is displayed on machine monitor:
If an action code is displayed on the machine monitor, press the [ ] switch of the panel switch section in
the current condition to display the failure code.
Carry out troubleshooting in [Display of code] according to the displayed failure code of electrical system.
2. Procedure for troubleshooting to be taken when electrical system failure code or mechanical system
failure code is recorded in abnormality record:
If an action code is not displayed on the machine monitor, check for an electrical system failure code or
mechanical system failure code with the abnormality record function of the machine monitor.
If a code is recorded, carry out troubleshooting in [Display of code] according to that code.
a If failure codes of electrical system are recorded, delete all of them and reproduce them, and then see if
the trouble is still detected.
a A mechanical system failure code cannot be deleted.
3. Procedure of troubleshooting to be taken when action code is not displayed and failure code is not
recorded:
If an action code is not displayed and a abnormality record is not recorded in the machine monitor, a trouble
that the machine cannot find out by itself may have occurred in the electrical system or hydraulic and
mechanical system.
In this case, check the phenomenon looking like a trouble again and select the same phenomenon from the
table of "Phenomena looking like troubles and troubleshooting Nos.", and then carry out troubleshooting
related to that phenomenon in the "E mode" or "H mode".

Note 1: Check the low-pressure circuit parts for the following items.
1) Fuel level
2) Clogging of fuel tank breather
3) Sticking and wear of feed pump and clogging of filter
4) Leakage through and clogging of low-pressure fuel piping
5) Defective operation of bypass valve and installation of wrong part (See Fig. 1)
6) Clogging of fuel filter
7) Fuel in oil pan (Fuel leakage inside head cover)
Fig. 1: Locations of overflow valve (1), bypass valve (2), and fuel inlet joint (3)
• Overflow valve (1): Spring is seen through both holes.
• Bypass valve (2): Spring is seen through hole on nut side.
• Fuel inlet joint (3): Gauze filter is seen through both holes.
Note 2: Check, clean, and replace the filters and strainers according to the following procedure.
1) Gauze filter: Disassemble and check. If clogged, clean.
2) Upstream strainer of gauze filter: If the gauze filter is clogged, clean the upstream filter, too.
3) Fuel filter: If the trouble is not solved by performing 1) and 2) above, replace the fuel filter.
