These tests may also be used for basic health checks, to determine if problems exist, or as a guide to
check for intermittent problems.
Make sure that connector was properly locked and that the lock ring is capable of locking connector
together.
Each pin and connector should easily withstand 10 pounds of pull, and remain in the connector body.
This test checks whether the wire was properly crimped in the pin, and whether the pin was properly
inserted into the connector. Repair as needed.
NOTE: Any time a wire is removed from a connector for testing purposes, do a 10 pound pull test
after reinserting the wire.
NOTE: Pins should ALWAYS be crimped onto the wires; NEVER soldered. Use 1U5804 Crimping
Tool (part of 4C3406 Connector Repair Kit).
Look for worn or abraded wires. Check for pinched or damaged harnesses, especially on OEM
wiring and early PEEC engines.
Verify that pins and sockets are not corroded or damaged. Verify proper alignment and location of

This is especially important for intermittent problems. Using a new pin, insert the pin into each
socket one at a time to check for a good grip on the pin by the socket. Repeat for each pin on the
mating side of the connector, using a new socket for the test.
Some vehicles may be equipped with an engine protection shutdown system (such as a Kysor or
Vigil shutdown system) or an idle time shutdown system (external to PEEC) that interrupts electrical
power to the ECM to shut the engine down. Some of these will not supply power to PEEC until the
engine is cranked, until oil pressure comes up to acceptable limits, or until an override button is
pressed. Keep in mind that these devices may be the cause of no (or intermittent) power to the ECM.
This procedure tests whether proper voltage is being supplied by the vehicle wiring. Detailed tests to
identify specific failures in the vehicle wiring are the responsibility of the vehicle manufacturer.
Note that the ECAP or DDT is supplied with electrical power through direct connections inside the
ECM. Therefore, if the ECAP or DDT has power, so does the ECM.
For intermittent problems that could be caused by vehicle wiring (such as intermittent shutdowns),
temporarily bypassing the vehicle wiring may be an effective means of determining the root cause. If
symptoms vanish with the wiring bypassed, vehicle wiring was the cause. A means of bypassing
vehicle wiring is explained below.

Check vehicle connector (J2/P2) and battery power and grounds to J2/P2, being sure to:
* Inspect connectors for damage or corrosion. Refer to P-201: Inspecting Electrical Connectors for
details. Repair any damage, then continue with the next step.
* Visually and physically check grounds for looseness or corrosion. If a problem is found,
disconnect, clean, and reconnect the connector
C. Measure the voltage between + Battery (Pin A) and ground (Pin B).
OK: The ECM is currently receiving the correct voltage. If intermittent problems with battery
voltage may be occurring, consider temporarily bypassing vehicle wiring as shown in Step 4.
Otherwise, Stop.

NOT OK: The ECM is NOT receiving the correct voltages. Continue with the next step.
B. Load test the batteries using the 4C4911 Battery Load Tester. Make reference to Operation
Manual, Form No. SEHS9249 for more complete information for use of the 6V4930 Battery Load
Tester.
The voltage at the batteries should be at least 11.5 VDC, and the batteries should pass the load
test.
OK: The batteries are not the problem. Wiring or components between the batteries and PEEC are
preventing voltage from reaching PEEC. Refer to the service manual for the vehicle for instructions
on how to troubleshoot the vehicle wiring. Stop.
NOT OK: The batteries are defective. Replace the defective batteries. Stop.
NOTE: This bypass is for TEST PURPOSES ONLY. It may be left on the vehicle temporarily to
test whether intermittent problems are due to interruptions in battery power to the ECM. Since this
will also bypass any engine protection devices, obtain approval from the owner before releasing a
truck with this bypass installed. The bypass switch is installed in parallel with the ignition switch.
Either one will turn power ON, and both must be OFF to turn power OFF and shutdown the engine.
A. Build a bypass circuit as shown in the illustration below, using #14 AWG wire.
B. Connect the battery end of the bypass DIRECTLY to the battery posts.
C. Remove Pins A (+ Battery) and B (-Battery) from J2 (Vehicle connector - vehicle side).
D. Insert the other end of the bypass into J2 Pins A and B (as shown below).
E. Connect the wire that was formerly in J2 Pin B into the socket spliced into the bypass.

F. Connect the wire that was formerly in J2 Pin A into the socket that is spliced into the bypass.
(This supplies power to the throttle sensor and vehicle speed buffer through the bypass rather than
the vehicle wiring). Tape this connection to keep it clean, prevent shorting, and prevent loosening
during vehicle operation. Then turn the ignition key OFF. This will isolate the PEEC system from
the original vehicle power circuit.
OK: If symptoms disappear with the bypass installed, but come back when it is removed, the
problem is in the vehicle wiring supplying power to PEEC. Send the vehicle to the OEM dealer for
repair of the vehicle wiring.
NOT OK: If symptoms continue even with the bypass installed, the problem is in PEEC. Continue
with the procedure in this manual that best describes the symptom(s).
The throttle position sensor may be one of two types. The "Remote-Mounted" (TPS) is about the size
of a soft drink can and is connected to the throttle pedal by OEM-supplied linkage. It requires
adjustment for proper operation (see procedure P-306). The "Pedal-Mounted" TPS is mounted
directly to a specific style of throttle pedal and requires no adjustment, and in fact can not be
adjusted. Both sensors provide the same type of signal to the ECM.

* Inspect connectors for damage or corrosion. Refer to P-201: Inspecting Electrical Connectors for
details. Repair any damage, then continue with the next step.
B. Refer to procedure P-306: Throttle Position Sensor Adjustment to determine if the sensor is
correctly adjusted.
NOT OK: The sensor could not be adjusted properly. There is a problem with the sensor circuit.
Proceed to Step 4.
A. Turn key OFF, then back ON to reset the throttle position reading.
B. Observe the "Throttle Pos" reading on the "Display Status" screen of the ECAP or DDT while
pressing and releasing the throttle.
The "Throttle Pos" should read 3% with the throttle pedal released and progressively increase
to 100% when the throttle pedal is fully pressed.
B. Measure the voltage between + Battery (Pin A) and ground (Pin B) on the 'T'.
The supply voltage to the sensor should be between 11.5 and 13.5 VDC
NOT OK: The throttle position sensor is not being supplied with the correct voltage. Inspect the
OEM-supplied wiring and vehicle electrical system for a problem. Stop.
A. Remove throttle sensor wire (Pin C) from J12. (This disconnects OEM wiring from the sensor).

C. Use the ECAP or DDT to display the Duty Cycle output of the throttle sensor while pressing and
releasing the pedal.
The DUTY CYCLE should be between 15 and 20% at the low idle position and increase to
between 80 and 85% at the high idle position.
NOT OK: The throttle sensor is defective or out of adjustment. Replace or adjust the sensor. Stop.
A. Remove throttle signal (Wire E) from P2. (This disconnects the ECM from the throttle signal).
D. Use the ECAP or DDT to display the Duty Cycle of the throttle sensor while pressing and
releasing the pedal.
The DUTY CYCLE should be between 15 and 20% at the low idle position and increase to
between 80 and 85% at the high idle position.
OK: A good throttle signal is reaching the ECM. Continue to next step.
NOT OK: The harness is damaged between the ECM and the throttle sensor. Inspect and repair as
necessary. Stop.
A. Be sure that the wires removed in Steps 4 and 5 have been reinserted.
OK: NOT ACTIVE: The throttle sensor and ECM are currently operating correctly. Stop.
NOT OK: ACTIVE: The ECM is not reading the throttle sensor signal. Be sure that it was
determined in Step 6 that a good throttle signal is reaching the ECM. If so, replace the ECM. Stop.

The Diagnostic Lamp is used to indicate the existence of a fault, to indicate "driver alert" status of
the Idle Shutdown Timer, and may be used to read Diagnostic Codes. While the engine is operating,
it will go on for a minimum of 5 seconds any time a fault condition exists. It will remain on as long
as the fault is ACTIVE.
On power up and on engine start up, the lamp comes ON for 5 seconds, blinks OFF, comes ON for
another 5 seconds, then goes OUT for 5 seconds. After this time, ACTIVE diagnostic codes will be
flashed out.
Active faults may also be flashed out at any time by turning the cruise ON/OFF switch to OFF, and
holding the SET/RESUME switch in the RESUME position until the lamp begins to flash, then
releasing it.
One terminal of the lamp is supplied with battery voltage whenever the key is ON. The other
terminal is connected to the ECM at P1/J1 Pin G to turn the lamp on. Pin G will be at battery voltage
when the lamp is OFF, and less than 2 volts when the lamp is turned ON.
The lamp should come ON for 10 seconds, then OUT for 5 seconds, then flash diagnostic codes.
A. Remove diagnostic lamp wire from P1, Pin G, and ground the wire.
B. Turn key ON, engine OFF. Lamp should come ON and stay ON.
OK: The lamp circuit is OK, but the ECM is not grounding lamp. Replace the ECM. Stop.
NOT OK: Verify that power is reaching lamp socket. If so, replace bulb. Stop.

PEEC uses vehicle speed information for cruise control, to limit engine speed in certain gears, and to
limit vehicle speed.
PEEC calculates vehicle speed by converting the vehicle speed signal to miles per hour. The
conversion factor is customer programmable and is stored in Pulses Per Mile (PPM).
NOTE: Changing PPM DOES NOT change the actual vehicle speed signal-only the way the ECM
converts the signal to mph. (In other words, changing PPM will NOT affect the speedometer).
The vehicle speed circuit consists of the vehicle speed sensor, the vehicle speed buffer, and
associated wiring. The sensor is a standard magnetic pickup and is supplied by the truck
manufacturer. It senses movement of teeth on the output shaft of the transmission. The buffer
(Caterpillar supplied) takes the signal from the sensor, conditions it, and sends it to both the ECM
https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisw... 8/17/2016

The buffer is supplied with battery voltage through J13/P13 Pin A. Ground is supplied through
J13/P13 Pin B. A good ground is very important in order to reduce electrical "noise", which
can cause erratic signals.
One of two types of buffers may be used. The 3E0020 buffer is an improved version of the 7T6398,
and is a direct pin-for-pin replacement. Either buffer should be grounded at the same point as the
ECM to minimize "electrical noise" in the ground circuit.
There are three acceptable options for wiring the vehicle speed circuit:
NOTE: For all three options, the Vehicle Speed Buffer should be grounded to the same ground point
as the ECM using a separate, dedicated ground wire. This holds true for either the 7T6398 or the
3E0020 Vehicle Speed Buffer. On 3406B PEEC engines, the ECM ground point is determined by
the vehicle manufacture (typically the starter negative post, a cab ground post, or the engine block).
1. Use separate sensors, with the second sensor supplying the signal to the speedometer. This option
completely isolates the two circuits and is preferred by Caterpillar. See Illustration 1.
Illustration 1
Recommended vehicle speed circuit wiring when using two separate sensors. For 3E0020 or 7T6398 Vehicle Speed
Buffer.
2. Use a single sensor, with the vehicle speed buffer supplying the signal to the speedometer. This
option provides good results when properly wired. When using the previous 7T6398 Vehicle Speed
Buffer, the circuit should be wired as shown in Illustration 2a. The ground connection for the
speedometer should be connected to the ECM ground point, and SHOULD NOT be connected to
the cab ground.
Note that this illustration is electrically identical to the schematic in 3406B (PEEC) Diesel Truck

Engine Electrical Schematic Form No SENR3486, which is in the complete Service Manual, 3406B
(PEEC) Diesel Truck Engine, Form No. SENR3570, but shows the required grounding for the
speedometer more clearly.
Illustration 2a
Recommended vehicle speed circuit wiring when using a single sensor with 7T6398 Vehicle Speed Buffer. (See
Illustration 2b for 3E0020 Vehicle Speed Buffer).
When using a single sensor with the 3E0020 Vehicle Speed Buffer, the circuit should be wired as
shown in Illustration 2b. The grounding requirements for the speedometer are less stringent when
using the 3E0020 Vehicle Speed Buffer than when using the 7T6398 Vehicle Speed Buffer.

Illustration 2b
Single sensor wired as recommended for 3E0020 Vehicle Speed Buffer. (See Illustration 2a for 7T6398 Vehicle Speed
Buffer).
3. Use a dual winding sensor, with the second winding supplying the signal to the speedometer. This
option is not preferred by Caterpillar, but can provide acceptable results if a good quality sensor is
used. Dual winding sensors may be used in some new OEM installations which have been
specifically reviewed by Caterpillar.

Illustration 3
Recommended vehicle speed circuit wiring when using a dual-winding sensor. For 3E0020 or 7T6398 Vehicle Speed
Buffer.
The buffer has outputs to both the ECM and the vehicle speedometer. The output to the ECM is the
same on both the 7T6398 buffer and the 3E0020 buffer: a series of 5 volt pulses at J13/P13 Pin D,
whose frequency varies directly with the speed of the vehicle.
When a single vehicle speed sensor is used, the speedometer is fed from the buffer.
A. The 7T6398 buffer has one speedometer output of -2.5 to +2.5 volt pulses at J13/P13 Pin C.
Pin E is not used on the 7T6398.
B. The 3E0020 buffer has two speedometer outputs, one at Pin C and one at Pin E. Output at
each one is a series of -9 volt to +9 volt pulses. The two outputs oppose one another; when Pin
C is at +9 volts, Pin E is at -9 volts, and vice versa. Either or both outputs may by used.
Test Procedure:
Step 1. Check Electrical Connectors And Wiring
Check vehicle connectors (J2/P2) and vehicle speed buffer connectors (J13/P13) and wiring between
them, being sure to:
https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisw... 8/17/2016
Media Search - SENR3479 - 3406B (PEEC) PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC ... Page 15 of 66
* Inspect connectors for damage or corrosion. Refer to P-201: Inspecting Electrical Connectors for
details. Repair any damage, then continue with the next step.
Remove the vehicle speed sensor(s) from the transmission and inspect for steel shavings and debris,
or damage. Wipe sensor(s) clean. Test sensor according to manufacturer's instructions (sensor is
OEM supplied).
NOT OK: If sensor is damaged or does not operate properly, replace sensor. Stop.
NOTE: Shavings and debris on the sensor may recur unless the transmission fluid is drained and
replaced.
Step 3. Check ECAP/DDT And Speedometer With Truck Parked, Engine Running
Install ECAP or DDT, and run the engine with truck parked, not moving. Try several engine speeds.
NOT OK: Speedometer is giving false readings due to poor grounding. Check that buffer and
speedometer grounds are as recommended (see illustrations). Stop.
Dyno test or road test vehicle. Compare mph on ECAP/DDT display against speedometer, and
against actual vehicle speed as measured on a dyno or by stopwatch.
* If ECAP/DDT reading is stable but inaccurate, calculate new scale factor using P-307: Vehicle
Speed Calibration, and enter into PEEC system using the ECAP/DDT. Repeat Step 4. Stop.
A. Install a 5-pin 'T' on the vehilce speed buffer connector at J13 (vehicle wiring side only).
B. Turn key ON and measure voltage from + battery (Pin A) to ground (Pin B).
https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisw... 8/17/2016
Media Search - SENR3479 - 3406B (PEEC) PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC ... Page 16 of 66
NOT OK: The buffer is not getting correct voltage. Check and repair OEM supplied wiring. Stop.
Step 6. Check Buffer Signal With Truck Parked, Engine OFF (7T6398 only)
Disconnect the vehicle speed sensor from the input wires to the vehicle speed buffer. Attach the 'T'
to P13 and J13. Remove Wire D at J13 (vehicle side). Measure vehicle speed signal voltage (Pin D
to Pin B) (key still ON). Alternately open and short the input wires to the buffer.
The buffer should read 4.5 to 8 volts DC with the input wires open, and less than 1 volt DC
with the input wires shorted.
NOT OK: Buffer is not supplying the proper signal to the ECM. Replace buffer. Stop.
Reinsert the wire into Pin D of J13, leaving the sensor disconnected from the buffer. Install a 9-pin
'T' at J2 only (vehicle side). Measure the vehicle speed signal voltage (Pin D to Pin B).
OK: The vehicle speed signal is reaching the ECM. Proceed to Step 8.
NOT OK: The vehicle speed signal is not getting to the ECM. Repair fault in harness between J13
and J2. Stop.
Step 7. Check Buffer Signal With Truck Parked, Engine OFF (3E0020 only).
1. With key OFF, attach the 'T' to vehicle speed buffer connector P13/J13). Remove wires from Pins
C, D, and E of J13 (vehicle side) and note location for reinstallation.
2. Disconnect the buffer input wires from the vehicle speed sensor. Connect the white input wire to
Pin A of P13 (+ battery) on the 'T'.
3. Turn key ON. Measure voltages from Pins C, D, and E on the 'T' with respect to Pin B (ground)
(white input wire jumpered to P13-A).
https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisw... 8/17/2016
Media Search - SENR3479 - 3406B (PEEC) PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC ... Page 17 of 66
4. Move the white wire jumper to P13-B (ground), and take the readings again. Voltages should now
be opposite:
1. The white wire from the sensor should still be connected to P-13 Pin B.
2. Install a 9-pin 'T' at J2 only (vehicle side). Measure the voltage on the 'T' from J2 Pin D to Pin B.
OK: The vehicle speed signal is reaching the ECM. Continue to next step.
NOT OK: The vehicle speed signal is not reaching the ECM. Repair fault in harness between J13
and J2. Stop.
C. Connect a jumper wire from the engine speed signal (Pin A of the 'T' at J5/P5) to Wire D removed
from P2. THIS CONNECTS ENGINE SPEED TO THE VEHICLE SPEED INPUT.
D. START THE ENGINE, and read vehicle speed on the ECAP or DDT.
Vehicle speed should read about 10 to 20 mph at an idle speed of 600 rpm.
NOTE: The exact mph is not important in this test - only that the ECM reads the signal.
NOT OK: The ECM is not reading the vehicle speed signal. Replace the ECM. Stop.

The PEEC cruise control operates similar to automotive cruise controls. PTO mode operates similar
to cruise, only it governs engine speed with the vehicle stationary. Four switch inputs to PEEC affect
cruise or PTO:
1. CRUISE ON/OFF
This switch must be ON for cruise or PTO to be activated. The signal goes to J2/P2 (Vehicle
connector), Pin F.
2. SET/ACCEL
With the ON/OFF switch ON, momentarily pressing this switch will activate cruise, and will tell the
cruise or PTO to try to maintain the current speed. Holding this switch ON will cause cruise or PTO
to slowly accelerate this setpoint. The signal goes to J2/P2 (Vehicle connector), Pin J.
3. RESUME/DECEL
With the ON/OFF switch ON, momentarily pressing this switch will also activate cruise, and will tell
the cruise or PTO to resume with the setpoint used when cruise was last disabled. Holding this
switch ON will cause cruise or PTO to slowly decelerate this setpoint. The signal goes to J2/P2
(Vehicle connector), Pin H.
4. CLUTCH/BRAKE
Depressing either the clutch or the brake pedal will cause cruise or PTO to deactivate. The signal
goes to J2/P2 (Vehicle connector), Pin G.
NOTE: All these switches are typically in the truck cab, and are supplied by the OEM. To
troubleshoot the ON/OFF, SET, or RESUME switches, use this procedure. To troubleshoot the

CLUTCH or BRAKE switches, use P-215: Service Brake And Clutch Switch Test.
Voltage at each of the switch inputs to the ECM should be 5.0 ± 0.5 volts with the switch open (or
OFF), and less than 0.5 volts with the switch closed (or ON).
The status of each should read "ON" with the switch On, and "OFF" with the switch OFF.
NOT OK: The ECM is not seeing the switch status change. Continue with next step.
B. Using a ohmmeter, Measure the resistance from each switch output terminal (listed below) to J2
Pin B (- Battery). Operate each switch and measure the resistance with switch closed and with switch
open.

OK: Vehicle wiring checks OK. If Step 1 found that the ECM is not seeing the switch status change,
then the ECM is getting the proper signals, but is not reading them correctly. Verify that the ECM is
receiving proper battery voltage. If so, replace the ECM. Stop.
NOT OK: There is a problem in the vehicle wiring. Repair as needed, using the OEM wiring
schematics, or refer to the OEM dealer. Stop.
The BRAKE and CLUTCH switches are used in cruise control or PTO mode to discontinue cruise or
PTO operation. The switches may also be used to override the Idle Shutdown Timer.
The brake and clutch switches are normally closed and are wired in series to ground. Depressing
either the clutch or brake opens the circuit. The signal goes to the ECM through P2/J2 Pin G.
Voltage at Pin G should be 5.0 ± 0.5 volts with either switch open, and less than 0.5 volts with both
switches closed.
Vehicle wiring for an engine brake may affect operation of this circuit. For example, the switch to
turn the engine brake on may open this circuit (similar to turning the service brake on). Refer to the
service manual for the vehicle to determine how the engine brake is wired.
Both switches are OEM supplied. The brake switch is typically a pressure switch. The clutch switch
is typically a limit switch mounted near the clutch pedal. The clutch switch is usually adjustable.

B. Operate the service BRAKE pedal while observing status of the "Clutch/Brake Sw".
C. Operate the CLUTCH pedal while observing status of the "Clutch/Brake Sw".
Switch status should be "OFF" with both pedals released and "ON" with the either pedal
depressed. The clutch pedal should feel resistance before the clutch switch engages.
OK: The clutch and brake switches are operating normally. Stop.
NOT OK: Check adjustment of the clutch switch, then repeat this step. If the ECM is still not seeing
the switch status change, continue to next step.
B. Using an ohmmeter, Measure the resistance from each switch output terminal (listed below) to J2
Pin G (- Battery). Operate each switch and measure the resistance with switch ON and OFF.
OK: Vehicle wiring checks OK. If Step 1 found that the ECM is not seeing the switch status change,
then the ECM is getting the proper signals, but is not reading them correctly. Verify that the ECM is
receiving proper battery voltage. If so, replace the ECM. Stop.
NOT OK: There is a problem in the vehicle wiring. Repair as needed, using the OEM wiring
schematics, or refer to the OEM dealer. Stop.

The PARKING BRAKE switch is used only to enable the Idle Shutdown Timer. The idle shutdown
timer will only be activated when the parking brake is ON.
The parking brake switch is supplied by the OEM. It should be normally closed (with brake applied,
and no air pressure to the parking brake) and connected to ground. Releasing the brake should open
the circuit. The idle shutdown timer will NOT operate unless the switch is installed to connect the
parking brake input to ground.
The signal goes to the ECM through P1/J1 Pin D. Voltage at Pin D should be 5.0 ± 0.5 volts with the
switch open (parking brake released), and less than 0.5 volts with the switch closed (parking brake
applied).
B. Operate the PARK BRAKE while observing status of the "Park Brake Sw".
Switch status should be "OFF" with the brake released and "ON" with the brake applied.
NOT OK: The ECM is not seeing the switch status change. Continue to next step.

The ECAP/DDT should be able to read correct parameters, the hour meter for logged codes
should represent approximate operating time for the Personality Module, and the engine
should start and run normally.
OK: The Personality Module is OK. The microprocessor in the ECM is able to properly function
and read the memory in the ECM and Personality Module. The remainder of the ECM (input
circuits, output circuits, and sensor supply and reference voltage circuits) are to be tested
individually. If operational problems persist, refer to the procedure in this manual best describing the
symptoms. Stop.
NOT OK: * If the ECAP/DDT will not communicate with the ECM, refer to P-120: ECAP/DDT
will Not Communicate With PEEC.
* If the Customer Specified Parameters are not as expected, reprogram the parameters. Completely
scrambled parameters could mean the ECM is defective.* If the hour meter for logged codes is
scrambled or stuck at zero, or the logged codes are completely scrambled, the Personality Module
may be defective. Excessive voltage spikes in the vehicle electrical system may also cause scrambled
logged codes or hour meter reading. Locate the source of the electrical spike (engine brake relays,
cooling fan solenoids, and air conditioner compressors are common causes) and suppress the spike
with a diode across the relay or solenoid coil.* If the engine will not start, refer to P-102: Engine
Cranks But Will Not Start.
NOTE: A short anywhere on the 8 volt sensor supply circuit will cause loss of the engine speed
signal, which will result in an engine shutdown.

The boost sensor is used to limit smoke emissions during acceleration. PEEC limits the amount of
fuel injected until certain boost pressures are reached. It does this by converting boost pressure to
"FRC RAck" (as shown on the ECAP status display). The FRC Rack (Fuel Ratio Control) is then a
limit on rack position based on boost pressure.
PEEC does NOT currently use an atmospheric pressure sensor, even though some transducer
modules are equipped with one. However, the inlet air hose from the air cleaner to the transducer
module MUST still be installed. It serves as a vent for the transducer module and is required for
proper operation of the boost pressure sensor.

D. Close the pressure cock valve on the pressure test kit and apply 100 kPa (14.5 psi) to the boost
pressure port.
E. Compare the readings on the ECAP or DDT with pressure test kit.
The ECAP or DDT should show 0 kPa when no pressure is applied and agree within ± 7 kPa
(1.0 psi) of the test kit.
NOT OK: The ECM is not receiving a proper boost sensor signal. Reconnect boost and inlet air
hoses. Proceed to Step 6.
A. Close the pressure cock valve on the pressure test kit and again apply 100 kPa (14.5 psi) to the
boost pressure port.
B. Observe the boost pressure reading on the ECAP or DDT for 30 seconds before releasing the
pressure.
C. Disconnect the pressure kit and reconnect the boost and inlet air hoses.
NOT OK: Check for leaks in the hose or the test kit. If none are found, there is an internal leak in
the transducer module. Replace the transducer module and calibrate the new boost sensor. Stop.
B. Measure the 8V sensor supply voltage (Pin H to Pin B), and the 5V reference voltage (Pin C to
Pin B).
The 8V sensor supply voltage should be 8.0 ± 0.4 VDC and the 5V reference voltage should be
5 ± 0.25 VDC.
NOT OK: There is a problem with the supply voltage. Refer to procedure P-221: Sensor Supply
Voltage Test. Stop.
A. Remove boost signal wire from the wiring harness connector (Wire E of J5) to isolate the boost
sensor from the wiring harness.

The boost pressure signal voltage should be between 0.7 and 1.2 VDC.
OK: The boost signal is good at the ECM. Continue to next step.
NOT OK: There is a problem with the wiring harness between the transducer module and the ECM.
Inspect the wiring and connectors for damage or a broken connection. Repair as necessary. Stop.
The previous step verified that a good boost signal is reaching the ECM.
The boost sensor should calibrate, display an accurate reading, and Diagnostic Code 25 should
NOT be ACTIVE.
NOT OK: Be sure the wires removed previously have been replaced. If so, the ECM is not reading
the boost signal. Replace the ECM.
The oil pressure sensor can measure oil pressure from 0 kPa (0 psi) to 312 kPa (45 psi). Any pressure
greater than 312 kPa is displayed as 312 kPa. The oil pressure measured by PEEC is about 10 kPa
less than the gallery oil pressure.
After the engine has been running for ten seconds, PEEC will monitor oil pressure to ensure that it
stays above certain limits. When it drops below the limits, PEEC will limit engine speed to 1,350
rpm, and generate Code 46 (Low Oil Pressure Warning). These limits are in the procedure for
https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisw... 8/17/2016
Media Search - SENR3479 - 3406B (PEEC) PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC ... Page 40 of 66
Note that PEEC uses the oil pressure only as an engine protection function. Lack of oil pressure does
not prevent PEEC from starting the engine. PEEC will still try to start the engine even if oil pressure
is low.
It is NOT NORMAL to get Diagnostic Code 24 with the key ON, engine OFF, or to read 310 kPa
(45 psi) with the key ON, engine OFF.
Check transducer module connector (J5/P5) and ECM/solenoids connector (J3/P3) and wiring

* Inspect connectors for damage or corrosion. Refer to P-201: Inspecting Electrical Connectors for
details. Repair any damage, then continue with the next step.
Check engine oil level and check that correct dipstick is installed. Also look for fuel dilution of oil
and oil leaks. Correct any problems.
B. Observe the "Oil Press" reading on the ECAP or DDT's "Display Status" screen.
The ECAP should display 0 kPa (0 psi) for oil pressure when the engine is not running. (A
Diagnostic Code 46 may be shown with the engine not running. Only be concerned about a
Diagnostic Code 46 when the engine is running.)
NOT OK: The sensor is reading pressure where none exists. Proceed to Step 6.
Pressure should exceed 35 kPa (5 psi) within five seconds and fall within the "Acceptable
Region" given on the Engine Oil Pressure Graph.

A. Install the 1U5470 Engine Pressure Group to measure engine oil pressure (fitting at the camshaft
bearing at the left rear corner of the engine block).
B. Start the engine and run at low idle. If after five seconds the oil pressure does not exceed 35 kPa
(5 psi), shut off the engine.
E. Compare the engine oil pressure to the acceptable range of oil pressure on the ENGINE OIL
PRESSURE GRAPH.
The engine oil pressure reading on the Engine Pressure Group should exceed 35 kPa (5 psi)
after five seconds and fall within the "Acceptable Region" given on the ENGINE OIL
PRESSURE GRAPH.
NOT OK: There is a problem with the engine oil pressure. Refer to 3406B PEEC Diesel Truck
Engine, Systems Operation Testing and Adjusting, Form No. SENR3485.
A. Start engine and wait until oil pressure builds to at least 35 kPa (5 psi).

B. Vary the engine speed. Compare the oil pressure reading on the "Display Status" screen of the
ECAP or DDT with the reading given by the 1U5470.
NOTE: The maximum oil pressure measured by PEEC is 312 kPa (45 psi). Engine oil pressure
greater than 312 kPa is shown as 312 kPa. PEEC will measure about 10 kPa lower pressures than the
1U5470 pressure group due to pressure losses between the main oil pressure gallery and the fuel
injection pump.
The oil pressure readings on the ECAP should be about 10 kPa less than the readings on the
1U5470.
NOT OK: The sensor is not reading oil pressure correctly. Continue to the next step.
C. Measure the 8V sensor supply voltage (Pin H to Pin B) and the 5V reference voltage (Pin C to Pin
B).
The 8V sensor supply voltage should be 8.0 ± 0.4 VDC and the 5V reference voltage should be
5.0 ± 0.25 VDC.
NOT OK: There is a problem with the voltage supply to the transducer module. Refer to P-221:
Sensor Supply Voltage Test. Stop.
A. Remove oil pressure signal wire from the harness connector (Wire G of J5) to isolate signal.
B. Measure the oil pressure signal (Pin G to Pin B) of the 'T' with the engine not running (key ON),

(key ON), at 600 rpm, and at 1350 rpm.
D. Compare the measured voltages with the minimum sensor outputs given in Table A.
The oil pressure signal voltages should all be greater than the minimum values given in Table
A.
OK: Oil pressure signal is reaching the ECM. Continue to next step.
NOT OK: There is a problem with the harness between the transducer module and the ECM. Inspect
the wiring harness and connectors for damage or a broken connection. Stop.
A. Check that the wires removed in previous steps have been reinserted.
B. Start the engine and wait for proper oil pressure to build.
Neither code ACTIVE: The oil pressure sensor and ECM are currently operating correctly. Stop.
Either code ACTIVE: The oil pressure signal is reaching the ECM but the ECM is not reading it.
Replace the ECM. Stop.
Because this test requires monitoring several internal PEEC variables, the ECAP should be used
rather than the DDT. The variables displayed on the ECAP "Status Display" which are used in this
test are:
*Desired RPM
The rpm that the PEEC governor is trying to maintain. It is based on throttle position, engine speed,
https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisw... 8/17/2016
Media Search - SENR3479 - 3406B (PEEC) PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC ... Page 45 of 66
vehicle speed, Customer Specified Parameters, and certain diagnostic codes. *Desired Rack
The position where the ECM wants to move the rack, based on the PEEC governor trying to
maintain "Desired RPM". "Desired Rack" will not go farther than the "FRC Rack" or "Rated Rack".
*Actual Rack
The ECM's interpretation of the Rack Position Sensor signal represents actual position of the rack,
assuming the sensor signal is valid. If the rack controls (solenoid, servo, sensor, etc.) are working
properly, "Actual Rack" should follow "Desired Rack". *FRC Rack
The rack limit based on the Fuel-Air-Ratio Control (FRC). FRC Rack increases with boost pressure
(as sensed by the Boost Sensor in the Transducer Module). This effectively limits the fuel injected
into the cylinders until there is enough air present in the cylinders (as indicated by boost pressure) to
cleanly burn the fuel. "Desired Rack" will never go past "FRC Rack". *Rated Rack
The rack limit which defines the horsepower and torque curves for the engine based on engine rpm.
This limit is derived from maps programmed into the Personality Module by the factory.
B. Monitor Desired RPM, Desired Rack, and Actual Rack on the ECAP "Status Display".
Desired RPM should be equal to the programmed Low Idle RPM and steady. The Actual Rack
should follow Desired Rack within ± .5mm (Note that the lag in the ECAP "Status Display"
causes some normal differences between the two readings). For a typical engine idling with
normal accessory loads, both readings should be around 4.50 mm to 5.25 mm.
OK: PEEC is able to control the rack properly at idle. Continue with Step 2.
NOT OK: * If desired RPM is too high or unstable, follow P-211: Throttle Position Sensor Test.

Solenoid (BTM) Test. Stop.
Desired Rack should reach Rated Rack with the engine fully loaded.
OK: If the Rack Position Sensor is calibrated (refer to P-303: Rack Position Sensor Calibration),
then PEEC is moving the rack to the specified position as it should. If problems persist, the cause IS
NOT the rack controls. Refer to the procedure best describing the symptom. Otherwise, Stop.
NOT OK: * If Desired Rack is limited to FRC Rack, PEEC is sensing low boost pressure. Check for
problems in the air intake system, then follow P-224: Boost Pressure Sensor Test.
* If Desired Rack is limited to some other value below Rated Rack, PEEC is intentionally limiting

The amount of timing advance that PEEC desires is controlled by software in the Personality
Module, and is dependent upon rpm, load, and other operating conditions. To control timing, PEEC
increases voltage to the timing solenoid (BTM) to increase advance until it senses that actual timing
advance is in the desired position.
The following are internal PEEC variables related to the injection timing which can be monitored on
the ECAP status display:
Fixed number of degrees determined by design of the fuel pump camshaft (determines injection
timing with no advance). Note that the value displayed is the specification for static timing, NOT an
electrically measured value. To determine whether static timing is actually adjusted according to this
specification, refer to P-301, Static Injection Timing Adjustment By Pin Method. * Desired Timing
Advance
Degrees of advance beyond static that PEEC desires. It is a function of rpm, load, etc. to optimize
performance and emissions. * Estimated Dynamic Timing
Est. Dyn Timing = Static Timing Spec + Actual Timing Advance + Port effect (.2 deg/100 rpm). *
Actual Timing Advance
Degrees of advance beyond static, as measured by the timing position sensor (assumes that the
timing position sensor is properly calibrated).

The idle shutdown timer is a feature which helps improve fuel consumption by limiting idling time.
It is available on engines equipped with personality modules built since April 1989. The timer may
be programmed to shut down the idling engine after a period of time. This "shutdown time" is a
https://127.0.0.1/sisweb/sisweb/techdoc/techdoc_print_page.jsp?returnurl=/sisweb/sisw... 8/17/2016
Media Search - SENR3479 - 3406B (PEEC) PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC ... Page 61 of 66
Customer Specified Parameter, and may be programmed for any period from three to sixty minutes.
Programming the time to zero disables the idle shutdown timer.
The timer is activated when the parking brake is set, vehicle speed is zero, and the engine is not
under load. Ninety (90) seconds before the programmed time is reached, the diagnostic lamp will
begin to flash rapidly. If the driver moves the clutch pedal or brake pedal during this 90 second
period, the timer will be overridden until it is reset. On newer engines (those equipped with a
Personality Module produced since May 1990), a Diagnostic Code 01 will be set when the driver
overrides the timer using the clutch or brake.
If the timer is activated, and is allowed to shut down the engine, then a code 47 will be set. Both 01
and 47 merely record the event, and do not indicate a fault in PEEC.
NOTE: If any of the following codes are ACTIVE, the idle shutdown timer WILL NOT OPERATE:
*Diagnostic Code 31 (Loss of Vehicle Speed Signal)*Diagnostic Code 36 (Vehicle Speed Signal
Out of Range)*Diagnostic Code 57 (Parking Brake Fault)
Follow the procedure indicated under the affected code, and correct that problem before attempting
the test the idle shutdown timer.
B. Record the programmed idle shutdown time (must be between 3 and 60 minutes. If programmed
to 0, timer is disabled).
With vehicle not moving and no load on the engine, "Idle Shutdown" status should change
from "NOT ACTIVE" to "COUNTING".
OK: The ECM is seeing the proper conditions to activate the idle shutdown timer. Continue with
next step.
NOT OK: The ECM is not seeing the proper conditions to activate the timer. Check the following:
*P-216: Parking Brake Switch Test*P-213: Vehicle Speed Signal Test*P-303: Rack Sensor
Calibration.
B. Observe the diagnostic lamp and the "Idle Shutdown" status during the ninety second period
before the programmed shutdown time.

C. During the last ninety seconds, press either the service brake or clutch pedal to override the
shutdown.
Ninety seconds before the scheduled shutdown, the status should change from "COUNTING"
to "DRIVER ALERT", and the diagnostic lamp should begin flashing rapidly. After pressing
the service brake or clutch pedal, the status should change to "OVERRIDDEN".
NOT OK: If the diagnostic lamp is not flashing during the alert, refer to P-212: Diagnostic Lamp
Test. If the ECM did not sense a change in clutch or brake status, refer to P-215: Service Brake And
Clutch Switch Test. Then repeat this step.
310 Multi-Torque
The 310 Multi-Torque provides an otherwise standard 310 hp PEEC engine with two different torque
curves. In all gears except top gear, the engine performs as a standard 310 hp PEEC. In the top gear,
however, the engine is provided with the torque of a standard 310 hp at 1800 rpm, but with the peak
torque of a 350 hp at 1150 rpm (see Illustration A).
PEEC determines whether the vehicle is in top gear by sensing the ratio of engine speed to road
speed. If the ratio of engine speed/vehicle speed is less than 26.6, Multi-Torque is in effect. If it is
greater than 26.6, the engine will perform like a standard 310 hp PEEC.
350 Multi-Torque
The 350 Multi-Torque works just like the 310 Multi-Torque, except for two key differences. First,
The Multi-Torque curve provides the engine with the standard 350 hp torque at 1800 rpm, and with
the peak torque of a 400 hp at 1200 rpm (see Illustration B). Second, the Multi-Torque is in effect in
the top two gears, when the ratio of engine speed/vehicle speed is less than 37.6, Multi-Torque is in
effect. If it is greater than 37.6, the engine will perform like a standard 350 hp PEEC.
If there are other complaints or symptoms, refer to the procedure best describing the symptoms.
Refer to the section, Summary Of PEEC Personality Module Changes, to verify that the part number
stamped on the Personality Module is one which contains Multi-Torque.
B. Operate the vehicle in lower gears at around 1200 rpm (a load is not required).

Media Search - SENR3479 - 3406B (PEEC) PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC ... Page 63 of 66
D. Operate vehicle in top gear at 1200 rpm, and again read and record "Rated Rack".
Rated Rack in top gear should be at least 0.5 mm greater than the Rated Rack in the lower
gears.
NOT OK: Verify that vehicle specifications are compatible with Multi-Torque. The ratio of engine
rpm/vehicle mph should be less than 26.6 in top gear (engine rpm should be less than 1600 rpm at 60
mph in top gear to be compatible with Multi-Torque). If they are, check vehicle speed signal using
P-213: Vehicle Speed Signal Test.

PDCC provides an otherwise standard 310 hp PEEC engine with special torque curves. In normal
operation (not in cruise), the engine performs as a standard 310 hp engine, except that torque is
limited in deep lug (below 1100 rpm) in top gear due to drive train limitations. In cruise mode, the
engine has the standard 310 hp torque at 1800 rpm, but has the peak torque of a 350 hp engine at
1150 rpm. Again, torque is limited in top gear while in deep lug due to drive train limitations (see
Illustration A).
