Series 40E Troubleshooting – Section 33.1 Injection Pressure Regulator

The Injector Pressure Regulator (IPR) is a variable position valve that controls injection control pressure. The ECM uses many input variables to determine the desired injection control pressure. For the IPR function diagram, see Figure “Injection Pressure Regulator Function Diagram” .‪ Figure 1. Injection Pressure Regulator Function Diagram Section 33.1.1 Output Functions Battery voltage is… Read More »

Series 40E Troubleshooting – Section 32.1 Signal Functions – High Side Drive Outputs

Signal functions include High Side Drive Outputs and Low Side Drive Return. For the Injector Drive Circuit (INJ) function diagram, see Figure “Injector Drive Circuit Function Diagram” .‪ Figure 1. Injector Drive Circuit Function Diagram High Side Drive Outputs — The high side drive outputs control the individual injector on-time, injection timing and sequencing (firing… Read More »

Series 40E Troubleshooting – Section 31.1 Signal Functions – Injection Control Pressure (ICP)

The Injection Control Pressure (ICP) sensor is a variable capacitance sensor that, when supplied with a 5 volt reference signal from the ECM, produces a linear analog voltage signal that indicates pressure.‪ The ICP sensor’s primary function is to provide a feedback signal to indicate injection control pressure to enable the ECM to command the… Read More »

Series 40E Troubleshooting – Section 4.2 Split-Shot Injectors

Some Series 40E electronic engines are equipped with split-shot injectors. On these injectors the injection cycle is executed in two stages. Some fuel is pre-injected into the combustion chamber to initiate the combustion and, once initiated, the primary injection takes place. This feature reduces emission levels at light load operations. It also reduces light load… Read More »

Series 40E Troubleshooting – Section 3.2 Injection Pressure Control

The ECM controls the injection control pressure by operating the injection control pressure regulator (IPR). See Figure “Injection Control System” . The result of this control is continuously monitored by the ECM using the injection control pressure sensor (ICP). The pressure signal obtained from the ICP allows the ECM to know the actual injection control… Read More »

Series 40E Troubleshooting – Section 2.1 Fuel System Description

The fuel system consists of three major subsystems:‪ Fuel Supply System Injection Control Pressure System Fuel Injector These subsystems work together to inject pressurized fuel into the combustion chambers. The function of the fuel supply system is to deliver fuel to the injectors. The injection control pressure system supplies the injectors with high pressure oil… Read More »
