It is suggested that Safe Harbor functionality is verified prior to attempting the CAT ET Desulfation Service Procedure as throttle control is the only indication that Safe Harbor was successful.
Cycle the Engine Key Switch OFF. The Desulfation Test can now be performed. The engine coolers may need to be covered with cardboard to keep the exhaust temperatures elevated (approximately
After testing, all engine ECM configurations must be restored to the original state.
