JT07065 Test Harness
The purpose of test is to check continuity of EC motor
wiring harness (F) and there is a signal from engine and
pump controller (EPC).
NOTE: The laptop computer with excavator diagnostics
program can be used to check the electrical signal
from the engine and pump controller to the engine
control motor. Select "15 EC motor position" from
Monitor Data Items. Typical readings are
110--114 steps at slow idle to 390--410 steps at
fast idle. The readings can vary from machine to
machine. What to look for is that the readings
change when the engine rpm dial is turned, and
when the E mode, HP mode, or auto-idle mode is
actuated.
IMPORTANT: Turn key switch off before
disconnecting any electrical
connectors. Disconnecting electrical
connectors while engine is running or
