Interaction of the Timing Interface Signals
When the manual override signal is held below 1 volt,
the ignition system is in variable timing mode. When
the override signal is above 1 volt the ignition system
is in the MAG CAL (fixed timing) mode.

The Timing Control Module (TCM) generates a clock


signal by squaring the Timing Control Magnetic
Pickup (TCMPU) signal. This clock signal is used by
the ignition system to track crankshaft position relative
to top dead center (TDC).

When the ignition system receives the reset pulse


from the TCM, it counts nine (9) clock signal edges
and then fires cylinder number one. The ignition
system continues to count clock signal edges and fire
the remaining cylinders in proper sequence.

Ignition timing is calculated by, comparing the offset


between the crank angle sensor (CAS) signal, and
cylinder number one ignition interface pulse. Ignition
timing is calculated by the same method when the
ignition system is in fixed timing mode (Mag Cal
mode).

The primary function of the CMS is to display important engine operating data. The CMS also reads sensor
information and communicates the information to the ECM.
Engine parameters are provided as solidly illuminated digital gages and a digital readout. The film below the
display indicates (appropriate ISO symbols) the information displayed by each of the six small gages.
The single large gage always indicates engine speed. The digital readout immediately below the large gage
indicates which gage is displayed by the number in the upper portion and the data value in the lower portion.

SECTION 3: Troubleshooting With And Without A Diagnostic Code
The troubleshooting procedures in this section are to assist in the repair of intermittent problems and problems with
symptoms that DO NOT have a diagnostic code. Before searching for problems or attempting to perform a repair in the
Troubleshooting Symptom List, follow the bullet procedure below to understand and determine the operational problem.
Operate the engine after correcting the problem and duplicate the conditions to verify the problem(s) is corrected.

• How often does the problem occur? Can the problem be recreated? If the problem is easily repeatable, note the
conditions when the problem occurs.
• Has the engine been repaired previously for the same problem? If the engine has experienced the same
problem, avoid replacing the same components unless absolutely sure they are the problem!
• Did the engine hesitate or misfire without a shutdown? If a shutdown occurred, did the operator have to reset the
system by turning the Mode Control Switch (MCS) to the OFF/RESET position to allow the engine to restart?
Repairing the reason for the engine not restarting should repair the reason for the engine shutdown.
ÿ
Does the problem occur only at specific loads, specific engine rpm or specific operating temperatures?
Does the problem occur only at specific ambient temperatures or outside weather conditions?

Operate the engine under similar conditions while attempting to duplicate the problem. If possible,
troubleshoot the problem within those conditions. Check programmed parameters affected by operating conditions
to verify the programmed parameters are not the problem! Inspect each value, one at a time, to verify the problem
is corrected.

SCM SPEED SENSOR

System Operation
The SCM Engine Speed Sensor (MPU) is a passive
magnetic pickup sensor that provides engine speed to Figure 1: SCM Speed Sensor Diagram
the SCM.
The Engine Speed Sensor must be installed with an air
gap of one half to three fourths counterclockwise turn
from full bottom position. A properly adjusted air gap will
prevent nuisance diagnostics.
NOTE: The sensor is shared with the Timing Control
Module (TCM) and DMC where applicable.
The sensor outputs a sinusoidal waveform created as the o© ZL


flywheel ring gear teeth pass beneath the pickup. The o OA's
frequency of the signal is proportional to the speed of the
engine. The signal can be interpreted as engine speed
oarr o
(rpm) equals frequency (Hz) multiplied by 60 then divided
by the number of teeth (255).
rpm=(Hz) X 60 I(255)
The frequency of the signal can be measured using a
voltmeter with an AC frequency mode or an
oscilloscope. MPU

System Operation

The Inlet Manifold Air Temperature Sensor provides inlet Figure 1: Inlet Manifold Air Temperature Sensor
air temperature data to the Engine Control Module (ECM). Diagram
The ECM uses air temperature in the calculations for
airflow and air-to-fuel ratio control. The ECM also uses the Electronic Control Module

sensor to protect the engine against excessively high air
temperatures. The inlet manifold air temperature can be
read from the CMS (gauge 1} or with the DDT.

Sensor Supply
The sensor is powered from the 10 VDC Supply from
the ECM. This voltage supply is shared with several
other sensors.
Output Signal
The sensor outputs a DC voltage signal to the ECM. The
DC voltage level varies with measured temperature. The
valid voltage range is from about 0.6 VDC at -40°C

MANIFOLD AIR PRESSURE SENSOR


System Operation

Figure 1: Air/Fuel Pressure Sensor Diagram


The Manifold Air Pressure Sensor provides an absolute
inlet air manifold pressure to the Engine Control Module
(ECM). The ECM uses the Air Pressure along with Fuel Electronic Control Module
(ECM)
Pressure, Fuel Temperature and Engine rpm to calculate
the amount of fuel and airflow through the engine. The
ECM monitors the air pressure for the air to fuel ratio
control.
The Manifold Air Pressure can be read from the DDT or
from the CMS Module.

The sensor is powered from the 20 or 24 VDC supply


from the ECM. The 20 VDC supply is shared with other
sensors.

The sensor outputs a PWM signal to the ECM. The


signal level varies with measured pressure. The valid
signal range is from approximately 17.3 percent to 95
percent duty cycle.

Figure 1: Fuel (Quality) Energy Content Input
The engine control system uses two methods for Diagram
controlling the air-to-fuel ratio of the G3600 Engine. The
first method (open loop) uses pressures, temperatures Electronic Control Module
and the Fuel Energy Content Setting to calculate the (ECM)
air-to-fuel ratio of the engine. This method relies on
sensor readings and on the manual setting of the Fuel
Energy Potentiometer. The second method uses the
combustion feedback system to monitor how the air and
fuel actually burned in the combustion chamber. This
method relies on the combustion probes and buffers. The
actual air-to-fuel ratio that is used for control is the
combination of the two. A basic air-to-fuel ratio is
calculated using the first method and the second method
creates a correction factor that compensates for any
errors in the first, maintaining consistence combustion
and achieving the best performance and emissions. The
ECM monitors the combustion characteristics of the fuel
using the combustion sensors and combustion buffers to
maintain proper engine air-to-fuel ratio for emissions, fuel
consumption and engine protection. The ECM requires
that a minimum of one-half of the cylinders provide
acceptable feedback in order to permit fuel quality
correction. Without acceptable feedback, the control
system is unable to compensate for changes in fuel
quality, and result in an engine shutdown for protection. Fuel Energy
The ECM also requires that the fuel correction factor Content

flywheel teeth. The speed sensor signal is used to (ECM)
accurately govern the engine speed. This magnetic
pickup is a three wire, powered, type of sensor and does
not work like a two wire magnetic pickup.
The Engine Speed Sensor must be installed with a
one-half to three-quarters turn air gap. A properly
adjusted air gap will prevent nuisance diagnostics.
Sensor Supply
The sensor is powered from the + 10 VDC Supply from
the ECM. This voltage supply is shared with the Jacket
Water Temperature Sensor, Fuel Temperature Sensor,
and Crankcase Pressure Sensor.

Output Signal
The sensor outputs an alternating type signal whose (MPU)
frequency varies directly to the speed of the engine. The
signal level varies between 0 and 10 volts. Each pulse in
the signal corresponds to the passing of a ring gear tooth. Speed Sensor
The ring gear on the G3600 has 255 teeth resulting in
255 pulses for every engine revolution. The signal can be 1 Tooth

filters. The air restriction can be read from the CMS


module, (gauge 11) for the Right Air Restriction Sensor
and (gauge 8) for the Left Air Restriction Sensor.
In most applications, excessive air restriction will result in

excessive air restriction is an alarm only.
Although this sensor (data) is read by the CMS Module
the sensor data output is relayed via the CAT Data Link

This increase in the combustion burn time is interpreted as a
decrease in the heating value of the fuel. To compensate for
this change in combustion burn time, the air flow to the
engine is reduced to bring the actual combustion time back to
desired combustion time. This causes the G3600 engine to
operate at a richer Air/Fuel ratio, which eventually leads to a

The control system monitors each cylinder for primary
ignition signals and combustion feedback to air-to-fuel
ratio correction and for engine protection. To protect the
engine, this condition will result in engine shutdown
The combustion feedback system uses Combustion
Buffers, combustion probes, and a link into the ignition
system to monitor the flame propagation speed during
combustion.

Combustion Buffers
The Combustion Buffer is wired in series with the ignition Combustion Probe

or CIS, connected to the Combustion Buffer and then to
the Ignition Transformer. This allows the buffer to monitor Cylinder Cylinder Cylinder Cylinder Cylinder Cylinder
when the spark plug is fired. 2 4 6 8 10 12
The Combustion Buffer also monitors a Combustion
Probe. When the flame of combustion reaches the
probe, a signal is generated. The buffer uses the
combustion signal to monitor when the flame has
reached the edge of the cylinder. The Combustion Buffer
times the flame propagation by sending a pulse that
starts when the spark plug is fired and ends when the
combustion signal is received.
The output of the Combustion Buffers are connected
together in series. Each buffer provides its pulse on the
common signal line. On a Vee engine all the buffers on
the even bank are connected together. All the buffers on
the odd bank except Cylinder No.1 are connected
together. Cylinder No.1 is run on its own signal wire to the Cylinder Cylinder Cylinder Cylinder Cylinder Cylinder

MAGNETO OUT OF CALIBRATION

System Operation

The Timing Control Module uses the magneto's maximum Figure 1: Timing Diagram
advanced timing to limits the timing range for
programming desired timing. The Magneto Calibration
(MAG CAL) mode places the maximum advanced timing Timing Control Module
(TCM)
of the magneto into the TCM memory. The maximum
advanced timing of the variable timing magneto
establishes limits on the timing window where the ignition
timing may be electronically adjusted and guaranteed to
fire the spark plugs.
During each engine start sequence, between 300 and
500 rpm, the TCM compares the stored maximum
advanced timing to the current setting. The timing is
calculated using the magneto interface (MIB) ignition
pulses and the Crank Angle Sensor (CAS) signals.

When the Actuator is calibrated, the minimum and

HEINZMANN FUEL ACTUATOR


System Operation

This System Functional Test applies to engines with a Figure 1: Fuel Actuator Diagram
Heinzmann Actuator. If your system uses the Hydrax
Actuator refer to Hydrax Fuel Actuator. Electronic Control Module
The ECM uses the Fuel Actuator to control the fuel flow to (ECM)
the engine for governing. The purpose of the Fuel
Actuator is to maintain the desired engine rpm. The Fuel
Actuator receives a command signal (% PWM) from the
ECM based on the difference in the actual engine rpm
and the desired engine rpm.
The Fuel Actuator is an electric Actuator powered from
the battery system through a relay (SR2) and a fuse in the
engine junction box.
The ECM sends a desired (command) position signal to
the Fuel Actuator. The signal is a pulse width modulated
(PWM) signal varying from 0 to 100 percent. At
approximately 10 percent signal, the Actuator begins to
move from the fully closed position (0%).
NOTE: Under normal engine operation, travel is limited to
50 percent where the Actuator reaches the fully open
position (maximum fuel delivery is at 50 percent).
The Actuator provides position feedback to the EM The
feedback signal is an analog voltage proportional to the
actual position of the Fuel Actuator. One VDC
corresponds to fully closed position and 9 VDC
corresponds to the fully open position with 5 VDC being
the mid position.
The installation procedure requires the Actuator to be
partially open (2%) when the fuel valve is fully closed. Under Fuel Actuator
conditions where the Actuator is fully closed the expected
feedback voltage form the Actuator should be less than 2

System Operation

This System Functional Test applies to engines with Figure 1: Choke Actuator Diagram
a Heinzmann Actuator. If your system uses the
Hydrax Actuator refer to Hydrax Choke Actuator. Electronic Control Module
The ECM uses the Choke Actuator to control the inlet air (ECM)
pressure to the engine from air-to-fuel ratio control. The
purpose of the Choke Actuator is to maintain air-to-fuel
ratio at partial (low load). The Choke Actuator receives a
command signal (% PWM) from the ECM to limit the
airflow into the engine during partial (low) load operation.
When the load on the engine is above approximately 50
percent during normal engine operation, the Choke
Actuator will open to 0 percent.
Power Supply
The Choke Actuator is an electric Actuator powered
from the battery system through a relay (SR2) and a fuse in
the engine junction box.
Device Signals
The ECM sends a desired (command) position signal to
the Actuator. The signal is a pulse width modulated
signal varying form 0 to 100 percent. At approximately 10
percent signal, the Actuator begins to move from the fully
open position. From that point, the Actuator moves
proportionally to the signal until approximately 90 percent
signal where the Actuator reaches the fully closed
position (50 percent PWM corresponds to mid-travel)
The Actuator provides position feedback to the feedback

position of the Actuator. One volt (1 VDC) corresponds to 3 ÿ

position (5 VDC corresponds to midposition). (03

Actuator Calibration

Choke Actuator
The ECM calibrates the Choke Actuator during the
normal start sequence to start the calibration. The
engine speed must be above 50 rpm. When the Actuator
is calibrated, the minimum and maximum feedback and
commands allowed are calculated. The ECM sends a
signal to move the Actuator from the closed to the open
position. The calibration values are recorded and are
used for diagnostic purposes.

False Detonation Signals And Valve Noise


False detonation can be caused by anything else on the engine that causes vibration. However, it is typically caused
by valve noise. Valve noise is generally constant from firing to firing. Its frequency is typically higher than actual
detonation (10 to 12 kHz on G3600 engines).
An example of valve noise is pictured in Figure 24. Valve timing charts are included at the back of this document. They
are useful in determining which valve is causing the false detonation. A formula to convert degrees to mS on the timing
charts is:

mS = (167 / RPM) degrees.

G3600 Engine Supervisory System 5-22 Troubleshooting


Note: There are two basic wiring arrangements used on G3600 engines. The early
engines used hard conduit on the engine and the engine mounted junction box terminals
were labeled from 101 to 458. The later engines used individual flesible stainless steel
harnesses and the junction box terminals were labeled from 610 to 958. The later version
has been upgraded over time to include the Caterpillar Ignition System (CIS), Detonation
Mixing Control (DMC), and the Hydrax actuators. The harnesses and junction box
termination labels have remained essentially the same with necessary hardware additions
and deletions. The schematics in this publication show only the later version terminal
points. For the early versions reference the Electrical Schematics for termination points.
