I work for Cummins and the CAPS fuel system was a mess when it first came out and I'm glad that it was short lived. I know all too well how terrible those are to work on in an RV. As far as the two speed sensors go, if you noticed in the part where you were filming when using INSITE you'll notice that you had engine speed sensor and engine position sensor. Cummins uses one of those sensors for engine speed and the other is reading directly off of the back of the cam gear and is what is used to determine engine position, IE top dead center of 1 or 6. Cummins engines will run when either of the two goes bad but the engine will have an extended crank until it tries to figure out position with the other sensor not present to check against.

Thanks so much

@donnyhudgins1917 Год назад

Caterpillar does the same thing with two engine speed sensors reading off the rear of the cam. The ecm uses the time between the readings on the two sensors to manage fuel delivery points throughout the rpm range. You have to remember that newer diesel engines use multiple bursts of fuel from the injector per compression/combustion stroke and the timing of those bursts are critical to the engine performing and meeting emissions. Gasoline engine technology is years behind the diesel world. Emissions are so much more stringent and hard to meet for diesel manufacturers especially on any engine that is on-road, hence why Caterpillar stopped producing on-road engines in 2010 and only produce engines for off-road machines and equipment.

Paul, I’m a former cummins engine tech, worked at cummins mid south in Kenner Louisiana from 2013-2020. The CAPS Fuel system is a ROYAL PAIN when it’s actually malfunctioning and a real PITA to troubleshoot! That said, you comments about the to engine speed sensors at the end of the video are incorrect. One reads drilled holes in the back of the cam gear, one is used for direct engine speed and the other is used for the 2 injection timing solenoids! If memory serves me right the CAPS Fuel system used the CM850 ECM engine control! This was cummins first real version of electronic fuel injection and was supposed to be fuel efficiency and cruise control based. I believe ECM Codes for the CM500 for power output we’re from 280-330 HP and 310-360 HP ranges. The ISC8.3 was known for producing about 800-1200 lb-ft at roughly 2400 rated engine speed. Great generator engines but, turds in heavy RV’s and garbage trucks! The ISL8.9 CM875 HPCR or “High Pressure Common Rail” fuel management system was the start of the faze out of the ISC8.3 CM850 CAPS or “Cummins Accumulator Pump System” Fuel management system!

@ScannerDanner 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the info! But the sensor do indeed read the same tone ring, check out the waveforms that I showed. They are simply staggered.

@80sfordguy 11 месяцев назад

@@ScannerDanner so you had the tone ring timing gears, those aren’t usually on the bus, rv, tow truck and generator engines. Those tone ring timing gears are mostly used in higher HP 350 HP or higher rated engines on emergency vehicles like large 1-2 ton ambulances or large 1-2 ton fire trucks that have a class 7 weight rating. Your rv should’ve been a class 6 weight rating thus using the timing gears with drilled dimples in the gears (less than 350 HP)! Someone “upgraded your engine or installed a long-block that was rated for emergency vehicles!

@ScannerDanner 11 месяцев назад

@@80sfordguy not sure the class but it had a 41000 gvwr and was like 36 or 37k dry weight

@80sfordguy 11 месяцев назад

@@ScannerDanner Although Paul dry weight and GVWR aren’t the same and are usually thousands of pounds in difference. Classes are separated by Dry Unloaded Empty Weight not Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. That weight of your RV couldn’t have been 41k because, your RV was small when compared to Large Tour Buses which are class 8 rated. The unloaded non-hauling empty weight of your RV 36k-37k has to be incorrect and likely was your GVWR or MAX Load Rating. For a largely exaggerated example, your RV might’ve been able to be loaded with 50k of stuff but your max weight your suspension to legally transport on the highway would’ve been 36k-37k. Which would’ve made you severely overloaded! Typically, Semi trucks are class 8, Flatbed tow trucks are class 6 or 7 by weight and RV’s typically are class 6 and larger are class 7! The weight ratings are dry empty load ratings. GVWR is wet or fully loaded maximum ratings for your suspension by the manufacturer of the vehicle or trailer. Trucks are also classified more broadly by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), which groups classes 1 and 2 as light duty, 3 through 6 as medium duty, and 7 and 8 as heavy duty! Then engine, transmission, suspension, axle and frame manufacturers use these load ratings to build, design and power the vehicles we purchase for use on the highways and byways!!! Cummins uses these ratings when designing an engine which is then designated by liter & cubic in size then by HP and torque output rating. Then the vehicle manufacturer uses the engine, trans, suspension and axle ratings to build the vehicle that you purchase and drive!

And so on…. And so on, there’s no doubt it’s a thinking man’s game!😊 But very good on you for saying it, Paul! ✌️

@mikeburdi3464 Год назад

Great video Paul! I remember you suspecting the engine speed sensors when you made the video with the algae in the inlet port. It looks like you were on to something at that point, even though it wasn't the cause of the no start/low power at the time, it was probably a small contributor. It's not the best job to do, you even tried getting another shop to do it and they wouldn't, it's all good, you did it yourself and sometimes the satisfaction is priceless! The new owners are happy I'm sure! Peace and blessings my friend.

@DuaneDonaldson 10 месяцев назад

It is like a CMP & CKP, it needs both the sync pulses for timing similar to what Bernie Thompson calls Crank Space to know exactly where to fire the injectors in this diesel case. I am thinking if you scope the injector with only one speed sensor working then I might expect to see injector timing move from one crank space to the other and then the engine starts after a long crank time giving more chances at guessing actual timing with only one sync notch, thanks Paul for this video that I would have otherwise not watched but since it was on an RV, I went for it.

@PaulCTownsend Год назад

Paul Danner that was a lot of fun and good work.😊 Deoxit to the rescue. Looks like one of those sensors was broke did you install one new or what. I did hear you say you replaced both of them so scratch that. Looking back I'm not sure you ever had a false engine speed sensor code of any kind due to fuel system. Staggered crank sensors has to be a limp home mode for you.

@khatokhato9350 Год назад

Crank sensor could be obscured by underpower. Once supply voltage goes beyond the lower limit it doesn't output signal anymore. Today I was installing some software on my laptop when the battery voltage dropped down, the laptop screen dimmed and when plugged it could not restart any more. When windows recovered, I saw battery depletion affects chips on the motherboard. Looks it was short circuit, and then you unintentionally cleared it sensors became functional again!

@superk4562 Год назад

Wow! Just in time. I'm working on an '05 Ford F750 (Cummins 5.9). What a pain in the .....! Gotta have a Ford manual for the chassis, an Allison manual for the trans, a Cummins' manual for the engine, and a really expensive Cummin's Insight scan tool to talk to the engine. Then the Cummins manual throws a curve ball and say in the troubleshooting the lift pump outpressure should be 78-150 PSI, but in the theory of operation is says lift pump pressure is 11 PSI. Good grief! I finally found a scan tool and checked the fuel rail pressure ... GTG! Now I'm going after the turbo actuator. Scan tool is showing 0 PSI boost pressure even with a brake torque. Update 26 Jul. Turned out the intake manifold pressure sensor (boost pressure) was dead. Connected lab scope to signal wire, and witnessed 480 mv that stayed constant during brake torque. 5v ref good, ground good. Installed new sensor and KOEO signal voltage jumped to 980 mv with voltage increase during brake torque.

I have a Mazda system I work on once in a while and it has what looks like a distributor, it's not, but it does drive off the cam in the same way. It has a flat steel plate with two rows of windows, each row with its own hall effect sensor. In the diagram they're called crank and cam sensor. Whatever! Lazy engineering is what that is. I don't know what Cummins deal is but it sure sounds familiar.

I just posted a comment earlier today on your thorough diagnostic process. Very impressive. I have a challenge for you. Perhaps your thought process can help in my situation. I’ve been involved in diesel engine mechanics most all of my life. CAPS is a new animal. I did my research on the system and am very impressed with the new technology for improved combustion. However, with the extreme pressures that this rail system runs at, I’ve never seen an injector line have the connector ferrule blown off. This is where the delivery side connects to the connector line through the valve cover to the injector. Mine was on the #3 line. I’d like to upload a photo to you. Bob

@ScannerDanner Месяц назад

I wish I could help further. I'm a gas engine specialist and work on very few diesel fuel systems. Yes the electronics and electrical troubleshooting is the same, but when it come to the fuel delivery systems, I'm just not your guy. I had to research for hours, to troubleshoot this CAPs system and our issues never got into the high side and the injectors themselves, so my knowledge is limited.
