Theory of Operation 4.5 Mobile Generator Repair Generator Systems The generator can be divided into four basic systems: 1) Power Generation and Output. This system includes the generator, voltage selector switch, receptacles, customer connect lugs and circuit breakers. 2) Voltage Regulation. Consisting primarily of the voltage regulator and exciter field winding, this system controls the voltage output of the generator. 3) Engine Start.
Mobile Generator Repair 4.6 Theory of Operation Power Generation & Output See Graphic: wc_gr002915 General Operation The figure shows the basic configuration of the generator. This configuration remains the same for all generator sizes and models. The exciter stator (a) is designed to be the primary source of the generator’s residual magnetism.
Theory of Operation Mobile Generator Repair See Graphic: wc_gr002767 Voltage Selector Switch (VSS) The VSS changes connections between the six main windings to form three different configurations: • High Wye (277/480V 3Ø) • Low Wye (120/208V 3Ø) • Zig-Zag (120/240V 1Ø) The main stator windings connect to one side of the VSS at the terminals. Output leads from the other side of the VSS are directed through the current transformers and then to both the main circuit breaker and the receptacles.

Theory of Operation Mobile Generator Repair See Graphic: wc_gr002775 Terminal Lugs and Receptacles The main connection lugs, labeled L1, L2, L3, and N are connected through the main circuit breaker (b) and then the voltage selector switch (a) back to the main stator windings. These lugs provide the primary connection points for attachment of outside loads.
Mobile Generator Repair 4.7 Theory of Operation Voltage Regulation See Graphic: wc_gr002776 and wc_gr002777 The Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) (a) is an encapsulated electronic control device that is rectangular in shape and located inside the control box on the right side wall. Its function is to maintain constant generator voltage over varying load conditions. The voltage regulator controls generator voltage by sensing AC voltage from the main stator winding at terminals 3 and 4.
Theory of Operation Mobile Generator Repair See Graphic: wc_gr0002778 Regulator Makeup There are eight terminals on the regulator labeled 3, 4, F+, F-, 6, 7, 50 Hz, and 60 Hz. Note: A new replacement regulator comes with a jumper across terminals 6 and 7 which must be removed before the regulator is used. • Terminals 3 and 4 Brown stator wires T7 and T9 are connected to regulator terminals 3 and 4 respectively, for all voltage selector switch positions.
Mobile Generator Repair • Theory of Operation Terminals 50Hz and 60Hz There is an white jumper wire connected (at the factory) to the 60Hz terminal. If 50Hz is required, the jumper will have to be moved to the 50Hz terminal. The position of this jumper tells the regulator where the coarse Under Frequency roll off (U/F) point is. On a 60Hz unit the U/F point is 58Hz. On a 50Hz unit the U/F point is 48Hz.
Theory of Operation Mobile Generator Repair See Graphic: wc_gr002769 Voltage Adjusting Rheostat Generator output voltage can be adjusted using the 2.5k Ohm voltage adjusting rheostat (a). The 2.5k Ohm voltage adjusting rheostat is not part of the voltage regulator. It is connected to the regulator at terminals 6 and 7. The voltage adjustment range is +10% to -10% of the selected voltage. CAUTION: Do not turn the voltage beyond 490VAC; damage to the excitation circuit will occur. 4.7.0.
Mobile Generator Repair 4.8 Theory of Operation Engine Start Battery B+ wires provide 12VDC to the following locations on each generator: • Isuzu-powered generators: starter motor, glow plug relay, starter relay, and terminal strip. • John Deere without Engine Control Unit (ECU): starter motor, starter relay, terminal strip, alternator, and preheat relay. • John Deere with ECU: ECU and terminal strip.
Theory of Operation Mobile Generator Repair In the START/RUN position the ECM preheat relay will energize on the first of the three cranking cycles if coolant temperature (fuel temperature on John Deere powered generators) dictates. The ECM preheat relay supplies 12VDC through gray wire #65 to the glow plug relay on Isuzu-powered generators, intake air heater relay on John Deere (without ECU) powered generators. On John Deere engines with ECU, the ECU controls power to the intake air heater relay.
Mobile Generator Repair 4.9 Theory of Operation ECM Monitoring System Operation The ECM contains a microprocessor that monitors engine safety inputs. It protects the engine by automatically shutting it down in the event of low oil pressure, high coolant temperature, high engine speed, or low engine speed. The ECM is programmed at the factory and does not require any adjustment.
Theory of Operation Mobile Generator Repair The shutdown trip point is approximately 67Hz (2010 rpm) for overspeed and 55Hz (1650 rpm) for underspeed. If engine speed exceeds 67Hz or falls below 55Hz, the ECM opens the fuel relay circuit and stops the engine. Overcrank The frequency signal is also used to determine an overcrank condition.
Mobile Generator Repair Theory of Operation See Graphic: wc_gr002779 Current Transformers Load line current values are provided by three current transformers (CT1, CT2, and CT3). Power lines to the main connection lugs and receptacles run through the current transformers. The current transformers sense line current and send an equivalent voltage to the ECM through the brown, yellow, white, and orange wires connected to plug 3.
ECM Troubleshooting 5. Mobile Generator Repair ECM Troubleshooting 5.1 Normal Boot-up Sequence During the boot-up sequence, the ECM scrolls through several screens before it settles into displaying the run screen.

Mobile Generator Repair 5.5 ECM Troubleshooting CAN Bus Code Screen For John Deere engines with electronic control (G 85, G 125, G160), the Engine Control Unit (ECU) communicates with the Engine Control Module (ECM) through a Controller Area Network (CAN). The wiring between the controllers forms a bus (physical electrical interface where many devices share the same electrical connections).
ECM Troubleshooting 5.6 Mobile Generator Repair Voltage Display Errors See Graphic: wc_gr002770 • Single Phase Display Mode The ECM is programmed to display line-to-line voltage values for both three-phase voltage selector switch positions. For example, if the voltage selector switch is in the 277/480V position, voltage values will read 480V on all three legs. However, when operating in the single phase 120/240V position, line-to-line voltage will only be displayed for leg 2 (240V).
Mobile Generator Repair • ECM Troubleshooting Engine Hour Switch in Locked Position Another possible display error can occur when starting the machine with the engine hour switch (a) in its down or locked position. This position is normally used to lock the display onto a single leg and to prevent the display from scrolling through volt and amp values for all three legs. On some generators, starting the engine with the switch in its locked (down) position will reverse the display for volts and amps.
ECM Troubleshooting 5.7 Mobile Generator Repair ECM Automatic Engine Shutdown Conditions The engine protection system includes six automatic shutdown conditions: low oil pressure, high coolant temperature, engine under/ overspeed, engine overcrank, low fuel. The ECM will also shut down the engine if an over current condition exists. When the ECM has shut down the unit due to one of the faults, the ECM will display the fault and other pertinent information to aid you in diagnosing the problem.
Mobile Generator Repair ECM Troubleshooting If the pressure gauge reads differently than the ECM, there is a problem with the sender or the ECM. 5.7.1.4 With a multimeter, check the continuity of the wire between the sender and the ECM. If the resistance measures “OL”, “OPEN”, or more than 1 Ohm, replace the wire. 5.7.1.5 Clean buildup from the end of the sender and check the sender’s resistance. A functioning sender will measure 240±10 Ohms outside of the engine.
ECM Troubleshooting 5.7.2 Mobile Generator Repair High Coolant Temperature Fault FAULT HIGH ENGINE TEMPERATURE 255 See Graphic: wc_gr001982, wc_gr001983, and wc_gr002083 When the ECM display reads “FAULT HIGH ENGINE TEMPERATURE” or similar, it signifies that engine coolant temperature has risen above safe levels. The temperature at which the ECM will shut down the engine is 239°F (115°C) for John Deere engines, 221°F (105°C) for Isuzu engines.
Mobile Generator Repair ECM Troubleshooting 5.7.2.4 Check the function of the ECM by attaching varying loads of resistance on one end of the temperature sender wiring and the other end to ground. This can be done by attaching varying resistors or through a potentiometer (an extra voltage adjustment rheostat similar to the one mounted on the control panel may be used.) Calibrate the rheostat by attaching the leads of a multimeter to it and turning the rheostat’s adjusting knob.
ECM Troubleshooting 5.7.3 Mobile Generator Repair Overspeed/Underspeed Shutdown Fault FAULT UNDERSPEED FAULT OVERSPEED See Graphic: wc_gr001984 and wc_gr002780 When the ECM display reads “FAULT OVERSPEED” or similar, it indicates that the engine speed exceeded approximately 2130 rpm (118% of its rated speed of 1800 rpm) and the ECM has automatically shut down the engine.
Mobile Generator Repair 5.7.4 ECM Troubleshooting Overcrank Shutdown Fault FAULT OVERCRANK To rectify an overcrank condition, carry out the engine troubleshooting procedures found in this manual. Note: An overcrank condition can occur even when the engine does not crank. This happens if a failure in one of the relays prevents the engine from cranking, allowing the ECM to time out. To reset the ECM, turn the start switch to OFF, then back to START/RUN, and retry starting the engine.
ECM Troubleshooting 5.7.5 Mobile Generator Repair Low Fuel Shutdown Fault FAULT LOW FUEL See Graphic: wc_gr002084 A low fuel fault condition will be displayed when the fuel level drops to 5% of capacity and the ECM has shut down the engine. This fault condition prevents the fuel lines from running completely dry and avoids the need to bleed the lines when the tank is refilled. To diagnose and rectify fault: 5.7.5.1 With a multimeter, check the continuity of the wire between the sender and the ECM.
Mobile Generator Repair 5.7.6 ECM Troubleshooting Over Current Shutdown Fault FAULT OVERLOAD Along with engine functions, the ECM continuously monitors the current load in each leg. The values for current overload are programmed into the ECM at the factory and are different for each generator size. When an overload condition is sensed in any leg, the engine will shut down and the ECM displays “FAULT OVERLOAD” or similar.
