This code is not covered in this manual (for diesel engines). If changes occur, notification will be sent from DDC. For gas-fueled engines, Flash Code 65 indicates a fault in the throttle plate. 65.2 SAE J1587 EQUIVALENT CODE FOR FLASH CODE 65 For diesel engines, the SAE J1587 equivalent codes for Flash Code 65 are 107/3, air filter sensor voltage high, and 107/4, air filter sensor voltage low. For gas engines, the SAE J1587 equivalent codes for Flash Code 65 is one of the following: Op 051/0 - Throttle plate above normal range Q p051/1 - Throttle plate below normal range Op 051/7 - Throttle plate not responding 65.3 TROUBLESHOOTING FLASH CODE 65 The following procedure will troubleshoot Flash Code 65. ———— eeeeeSeSeSSSSSSSsSSSSSSSSSSSsSsSssssess Atatenaen sno crarpa wnt rte 65-3 SE497 9708'S vor DETHONT DIESEL.

Check ground wire from Cavity B to battery negative (-) [a]_ If the ground wire is okay, refer to section 65.3.4 [b] If the ground wire is bad, repair and refer to section 65.3.7. 65.3.3 Check for Supply Perform the following steps to check for supply: 1. Turn ignition OFF. 2. Unplug engine sensor harness. 3. Install a jumper between wire cavity A and F of the throttle actuator connector. 4. Measure resistance between cavity R1 and $3, then R1 and T3 at the engine sensor harness. [a]_ If both readings are less than 1,000 Q refer to section 65.3.4 [b] If either reading is greater than 1,000 Q, it indicates the #561 or #562 wire is open. Repair or replace the wire and refer to section 65.3.7. 65.3.4 Check PWM #2 Perform the following steps to check PWM #2: 1. Move jumper to cavities E and F at the throttle activator. 2. Measure resistance between cavities R1 and Y1 of the engine sensor harness. [a] If the measurement is less than 1,000 Q, refer to section 65.3.5. [b] If the measurement is greater than 1,000 Q, the wire #909 (PWM#2) is open. Repair or replace the wire and refer to section 65.3.7. 65.3.5 Check Connectors Perform the following steps to check the connectors. 1. Check both connectors for damaged, bent or broken pins or terminals. [a] If the connectors are not damaged, refer to section 65.3.6. [b] If the connectors are damaged, repair or replace the connectors. Refer to section 65.3.7.

Remove jumper. 2. Measure resistance between cavity YI and R1 on the engine sensor harness. 3. Measure resistance between Y1 and T3 of the engine sensor harness. [a] If the measured resistance is less than 1,000 Q, the wires are shorted to each other. Repair or replace the wires and refer to section 65.3.7 [b] If the measured resistance is greater than 1,000 Q, troubleshooting is complete. Review this section or contact Detroit Diesel Technical Service to replace the actuator. Refer to section 65.3.7 65.3.7 Verify Repairs Perform the following steps to verify repairs. 1. Connect all connectors. With the ignition ON, plug in the DDR and clear the codes. Throttle the engine through various speeds (r/min). Shut the engine off. Turn ignition ON. oun uUn . Read the logged codes. {al If no codes are logged, troubleshooting is complete. {b] If code 65 is logged with any other codes, troubleshooting is complete.
