Isuzu 6HK1-TC fire trucks, also named Isuzu rescue fire vehicle, Engine Error Code Diagnosis and Solutions.The Isuzu 6HK1-TC engine utilizes the advanced TICS fuel injection pump electronic control system, and the ECU (Engine Control Unit) features self-diagnosis. When the system detects a fault, the "CHECK ENGINE" warning light illuminates and the corresponding fault code is stored. Understanding the interpretation and solutions for these error codes can effectively improve engine maintenance efficiency.
Common Error Codes and Solutions
P-Series Trouble Codes
P0101 (Mass Air Flow Sensor Circuit Low)
Check the engine coolant temperature sensor and its wiring. Verify the sensor power supply voltage and ground connection. Replace the ECU or sensor if necessary.
P0102 (Mass Air Flow Sensor Circuit High)
Check fuel quality and filter condition. Clean the fuel system. Check the fuel pressure regulator, fuel pump, and injector circuits.
P0103 (Mass Air Flow Sensor A Circuit High)
Check the sensor signal circuit for a short circuit. Test the sensor's operating status. Replace the sensor or ECU if necessary.
Digital Trouble Codes
10 (Rack Sensor Error)
Check the rack sensor and its wiring. Verify normal signal transmission.
11 (Speed Governor Servo System Error)
Check the speed governor servo system's operating status. Test related circuit connections.
14 (Auxiliary Speed Sensor Error)
Check the auxiliary speed sensor's installation position. Test the sensor's signal output.
15 (N-TDC Sensor Error)
Check N-TDC sensor connection
Verify signal accuracy
