•
NOT OK – The voltage measured from Phase A
and Phase C to the neutral lead is NOT greater
than 55% to 60% of the voltage measured from
Phase A to Phase B.
Repair: The neutral wire is open. Use the System
Schematic for the BTB + and the AC schematic
in Testing And Adjusting, “Schematics And Wiring
Diagrams” section to troubleshoot the wiring and
find the exact cause of the diagnostic code.
STOP.
Te st Step 2. CHECK VOLTAGE ON GSC+P
INPUT.
A. Stop the engine. Turn th e ECS to “STOP”.
B. Install cable probes on the GSC+P 40-pin
connector pins 17 and 18.
C. Start the engine and run the engine at rated speed.
D. Close the breaker in order to energize the bus.
E. On the GSC+P, measure the voltage from
connector pin 17 to the negative battery terminal,
and from connector pin 18 to the negative battery
terminal. Record the voltage measurements.
F. Measure the voltage between the G SC+P
connector pin 17 and the GSC+P connector pin
18. Record the voltage measurements.
G. Compare the voltages measurements with the
voltage measurements recorded from the previous
two steps.
Expected Result:
The voltage measured from pin 17 and 18 to the
negative battery terminal should be greater than 55%
to 60% of the voltage measured between pin 17 and
pin 18.
Results:
•
OK – The voltage measured from pin 17 and pin
18 to battery negative is greater than 55% to 60%
of the voltage measured between pin 17 and pin
18. The G SC+P may have failed.
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 cause
of the problem is the same, replace the GSC+P.
Refer toTesting and Adjusting, “EMPC Electronic
Control (Generator Set) - Replace”.
STOP.
•
NOT O K – The voltage measured from pin 17 and
18 to the negative battery terminal is NOT greater
than 55% to 60% of the voltage measured between
pin17andpin18.
Repair: TheACgroundwireisopenbetweenthe
BTB+ and the GSC+P, or the jumper between
terminals “B21” and “B22” on the BTB+ is broken
or damaged. Repair the wire or replace the wire.
Use the System Schematic for the BTB + and
the AC schematic in to troubleshoot the wiring
and find the exact cause of the diagnostic code.
Refer to Testing And Adjusting, “Schematics And
Wiring Diagrams”. If none of these repairs corrects
the problem, replace the BTB +. Refer to Testing
and Adjusting, “EMPC Electronic Control (Bus
Transform er Box ) - Replace”.
STOP.

GSC CID 1170 - FMI 08
SMCS Code: 1409-035
Conditions Which Generate This Code:
The Bus Transformer Box (BTB +) reduces the AC
line to neutral voltages of phase A and phase C from
the bus to usable signal levels for the GSC+P. The
GSC+P uses these reduced signals for detecting the
phase angle with the generator. The GSC+P also
uses these reduced signals for detecting the phase
sequence of the bus. The GSC+P will utilize th e
signal of phase A in order to measure the amplitude
of the voltage on the bus. The GSC+P will utilize the
signal of phase C in order to measure the frequency
of the voltage on the bus.
The possible cause of a CID 1170 FMI 08 diagnostic
code is an open connection from phase C to the
input of the BTB +.
Tes t Step 1. CHECK THE BTB+ FUSES.
A. Stop the engine by turning the Engine Control
Switch (ECS) to STOP.
B. Remove the two fuses from the BTB+.
C. Measure the resistance of the fuses with a digital
multime ter.
Expected Result:
The resistance should be less than 1.0 ohms.
Results:
•
OK – The resistance is less than 1.0 ohms. The
fuses have not failed. Install the fuses. Proceed
to Test Step 2.
