Problem Cause 

Remedy

Prime mover will not 
start. Actuator not 

Supply voltage polarity 
reversed, or no supply voltage. 

Check for supply voltage from terminals 24 (+) to 25 
(–). Reverse leads if polarity is incorrect. 

moving to start fuel 
position. 
 

 

If the actuator moves 
to start position, a 
problem with the 
prime mover fuel 
supply is indicated. 

Actuator not responding to input 
signal from control. 

If there is a voltage output at control terminals 1 (+) 
and 2 (–), but the actuator does not move, check 
the wiring to the actuator for opens or shorts. 
 
Check the polarity of the actuator and feedback. 
 
Check actuator and linkage for proper installation 
and operation. Problems may be direction of 
rotation, linkage, worn components, or improper 
adjustment. 

Start fuel limit set too low. 

Increase start fuel limit until prime mover starts. 

 

Increase Start Ramp. 

Speed setting too low on initial 
start. 

Speed setting may be lower than cranking speed. 
Control should be set for rated speed. Increase 
Rated Speed setting. 
 

 

If adjusting Rated Speed does not produce the 
correct output, return Rated Speed setting to 
normal start position.

 

Idle Speed setting may be set 
too low. 

Adjust idle speed. 

Run/Stop contact open. 

Check terminal 23. Run/Stop contact must be 
closed for normal operation. Check monitor menu 
for switch position.
