. Refer to "80.2.1.1 Verify Repairs"
.
- Disconnect the Constant Throttle Valve connector.
- Turn the ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).
- Measure the voltage between pins 1 and 2 of the Constant Throttle Valve connector.
- If the voltage is between 11 and 13 volts, replace the Constant Throttle Valve.
- If the voltage is less than 11 volts, go to step 5 .
- Measure the voltage between pin 2 of the Constant Throttle Valve connector and ground.
- If the voltage is between 11 and 13 volts, repair the open in the wire between pin 32 of the 120–pin MCM connector and pin 1 of the Constant Throttle Valve connector. See Figure "Constant Throttle Valve" . Refer to "80.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
- If the voltage is less than 11 volts, repair the open in the wire between pin 64 of the 120–pin MCM connector and pin 2 of the Constant Throttle Valve connector. See Figure "Constant Throttle Valve" . Refer to "80.3.1.1 Verify Repairs" .
Section 80.3.1.1
Verify Repairs
Verify repairs as follows:
- Turn ignition OFF.
- Reconnect any electrical connections that were disconnected to perform the diagnosis.
- Clear codes with DDDL 7.0 or latest version.
- Start and bring engine up to operating temperature (over 140°F/60°C).
- Verify operation is satisfactory and no warning lamps illuminate. If warning lamps illuminate, troubleshoot the codes. If assistance is required, call the Detroit Diesel Customer Support Center at 313–592–5800.
