Section 11.5
Improper Injector Calibration Setting (DDEC V Engines Only)
To determine if improper injector calibration setting (DDEC V engines only) is causing rough running or stalling, perform the following steps:
- Test for improper injector setting.
- Compare the calibration code(s) shown on the Detroit Diesel Diagnostic Link display with the two digit calibration code(s) on the injector(s). See Figure
"Injector Calibration Code"
.

Figure 1. Injector Calibration Code
- If the calibration codes match, check compression pressure; refer to "11.6 Low Compression Pressure" .
- If the calibration code on the display is different then the calibration code on the suspect injector for that cylinder, the injector setting must be reset, see Figure "Injector Calibration Code" ; refer to "11.5.1 Improper Injector Setting Repair" .
Section 11.5.1
Improper Injector Setting Repair
Perform the following steps to recalibrate improper injector setting:
- Reset incorrect injector setting.
- Verify injector setting repair; refer to "11.5.1.1 Test the Engine with Corrected Injector Setting" .
Section 11.5.1.1
Test the Engine with Corrected Injector Setting
Perform the following steps to determine if the corrected injector setting resolved rough running or stalling:
- Start and run the engine.
- Run the engine through its operating range with no-load for approximately 5 minutes, allowing the engine coolant to reach normal operating range, 88-96°C (190-210°F).
- If the engine is not running rough or stalling, no further troubleshooting is required. Shut down the engine.
- If the engine is running rough or stalling, shut down the engine. Check for low compression pressure; refer to "11.6 Low Compression Pressure" .
