Troubleshooting Test Steps | Values | Results |
---|---|---|
1. Determine the Source of the High Temperature A. Evaluate the installation location of the DCU. B. Check for heat sources close to the DCU. |
Heat Source |
Result: The DCU is located close to a heat source. Repair: Eliminate the heat source by installing a heat shield or moving the component creating the heat. Proceed to Test Step 2. |
2. Replace the DCU A. Replace the DCU. |
DCU |
Result: The DCU was replaced. Verify that the problem is resolved. |
If the procedure did not correct the issue, contact your Cat dealer Technical Communicator (TC). For further assistance, your TC can confer with the Dealer Solutions Network (DSN).
