Troubleshooting Section
Repair: The GSC+P may have failed. It is unlikely
that the GSC+P has failed. Exit this procedure and
perform this entire procedure again. If the problem
remains, replace the GSC+P. Refer to Testing And
Adjusting, “EMCP Electronic Control (Generator
Set) - Replace”.

System Schematic For kW Level Output
The kW level output will be activated whenever
the total power output of the generator exceeds
the setpoint P139. The kW level output is the
connector pin 34 of the GSC+P. This setpoint can
be programmed from 0 to 110 percent of the rated
power on the nameplate (setpoint P030). This
setpoint can be programmed with a time delay from
0 to 120 seconds (setpoint P140). Refer to System
Operation, “Engine/Generator Programming OP5-0”.
Also, refer to System Operation, “Service Mode”.
Once the output is activated, the kW level output
will be deactivated when the total power output of
the generator drops below the programmed setpoint
(setpoint P141). This setpoint is different from the
activation setpoint. This setpoint can be p rogrammed
from 0 to 110 percent of the p ower rating on the
nameplate of the generator. This setpoint can be
programmed with a time delay from 0 to 120 seconds.
When kW relay is disconnected from the GSC+P, the
voltage on the kW level output is approximately 5.0
DCV. When kW relay is connected to the GSC+P,
the voltage on the kW level output is approximately
0 volts. The kW level output is capable of drawing
(sinking) approximately 100 mA. Documenting and
troubleshooting any connections to this output is the
responsibility o f the customers a nd the dealers.
The possible cause of a CID 0859 FMI 3 is a short
from the positive battery terminal circuit (“BATT+”) to
the kW level output.
The GSC+P treats a CID 859 FMI 03 as an alarm
fault.
Troubleshooting of this failure is straight forward. The
FMI 03 defines the problem as a short to “BATT+”.
Use the following information in order to find the
exact cause of the diagnostic code.

Tes t Step 1. CHECK THE GENERATOR
SET CONTROL
A. Verify that the CID 0859 FMI 03 diagnostic code
is active.
B. Disconnect the wire from pin 34 of the GSC+P.
C. Measure the voltage between pin 34 of the
GSC+P and “BATT-”.
Expected Result:
The voltage is approximately 5 ± 1.0 DCV.
Results:
•
OK – The voltage is approximately 5 ± 1.0 DCV.
The voltage is correct. Proceed to Test Step 2.
•
NOTOK –ThevoltageisNOTapproximately5±
1.0DCV.ThevoltageisNOTcorrect.TheGSC+P
has failed.
Repair: It is unlikely that the GSC+P has failed.
Exit this diagnostic code procedure and repeat
the CID 0859 FMI 03 diagnostic code procedure
again. If the cause of the failure is still unknown,
then replace the GSC+P.
STOP.
Tes t Step 2. CHECK FOR A SHORT IN
THE WIRING OF THE kW LEVEL OUTPUT
A. Shut down the genset.
B. Disconnect the cable on the negative battery
terminal “BATT-” terminal of the battery, or open
the optional battery disconnect switch.
C. The wire remains disconnected from pin 34 of the
GSC+P.
