Spare Parts - Northern Lights NL773LW4 Operator's Manual

2. Electronically-controlled generator sets will run
at reduced capacity when the Engine Control Unit
(ECU) detects a problem with one of its sensors.
These problems are indicated by a flashing trouble
code on the ECU warning light. For the NL676L4E,
see Figure 16 on page 23 for the meaning of different
codes.
3. Do the following when your warning or shutdown
system is activated:
a. Check the temperature gauge.
Industrial sets: If above 230°F (110°C), shut
off the engine immediately.
b. Use the Trouble Shooting Guide on page 21 to
isolate the cause of the overheat.
CAUTION: Do not remove the water fill
cap of an overheated engine. Escaping high
temperature steam can cause severe burns. Allow
the engine to cool and then remove the cap slowly
using protective clothing.
c. Make repairs.
Restart your Industrial set after the temperature
gauge registers below 225°F (107°C).
d. Watch the temperature gauge regularly and
turn off the unit if the temperature rises above
230°F (110°C) on Industrial sets. Repeat trouble
shooting.
3. If shutdown is activated and the temperature gauge
shows temperature within normal temperature range:
a. Check the engine crankcase oil level.
b. If the oil level is low, fill with recommended
lubricating oil and restart. Watch the oil pressure
gauge carefully and shut off the engine if it does
not show a normal reading (20-60 PSI) after a
few seconds of operation.
c. If the oil level is normal, DO NOT restart the
engine. Call your dealer for assistance.
