---|---|---|
Code and Description     | Conditions which Generate this Code     | System Response     |
E362(1) Engine Overspeed     | The engine rpm has exceeded the trip point for engine overspeed for the delay time.     | The code is logged. The ECM will disable fuel injection for engine speeds that are above the trip point.     |
E362(2) Engine Overspeed     | The engine rpm has exceeded the trip point for engine overspeed for the delay time.     | The code is logged. The ECM will disable fuel injection for engine speeds that are above the trip point.     |
Probable Causes
- Intake air is combustible.
- Sudden drop of load
Recommended Actions
Intake Air is Combustible
Check for hydrocarbons in the surrounding atmosphere. Do not operate the engine in an environment with hydrocarbons in the surrounding atmosphere.
Sudden Drop of Load
Decrease the load on the engine gradually.
