SP1Spare Fault 1 (Customizable input fault)hoses; radiator; pump). Test the coolant level sensor and wiring for faults (e.g.; shortsCheck the programmed spare input conditions. Inspect wiring and connected devices. Reset and troubleshoot based on customer configuration.; Check the coolant level in the radiator or reservoir; top up with the recommended coolant type. Inspect the cooling system for leaks (e.g.
SP2Spare Fault 2 (Customizable input fault)shorts; opens)Check the programmed spare input conditions. Inspect wiring and connected devices. Reset and troubleshoot based on customer configuration.; Check the oil level; top up with the recommended oil if low. Inspect the oil cooling system for blockages or pump failure. Test the oil temperature sensor and wiring for faults (e.g.; replace if defective. Ensure proper engine ventilation. Reset the fault and restart. to the APM303 or a technician if unresolved.
SP3Spare Fault 3 (Customizable input fault)—Check the programmed spare input conditions. Inspect wiring and connected devices. Reset and troubleshoot based on customer configuration.; Check the fuel system for leaks or restrictions. Inspect the fuel filter; replace if clogged. Test the fuel pump for proper operation; replace if faulty. Verify the fuel pressure sensor and wiring; replace if defective. Prime the fuel system if needed. Reset the fault and restart. Consult the APM303 or a technician if unresolved.
