ADJUSTING ENGINE CRANK DISCONNECT
This is an adjustment for the engine starter (crank duration).
Using a small, flat-blade screwdriver (Figure 56A), turn
the engine crank disconnect adjustment potentiometer
(Figure 56B) 30 turns counterclockwise. Then turn it about
3 turns clockwise.
Try to start the engine. The starter should crank but
disengage quickly. If the engine starts, the ECU engine
running lamp should be lit. Once verified, shutdown the
engine.
With the engine shutdown, adjust the the engine crank
disconnect adjustment potentiometer 1 turn clockwise
and try restarting the engine. Continue performing this
adjustment of the potentiometer, in a clockwise direction
until the engine starts reliably. If the overcrank and
overspeed LEDs light at the same time on your unit,
reference troubleshooting flow charts in this service
manual for additional information.
