A SLEEPER FAN diagnostic code indicates an electrical short in the sleeper

fan wiring harness, electrical connections or fan motor. This error will not

shut the heater down and heat to the engine will be maintained. An open

circuit will not display a diagnostic code.

NOTE: This error is only applicable to "Sleeper Fan" models. See page 4-2 for

model identification. If the PCM model is an "Aux Input" model and

this error is displayed, there is a fault with the PCM. Replace the PCM.

Symptom:

Sleeper Heater fan not turning (code indicated)

Check:

Sleeper Heater system

a)

The wiring connections and polarity.

b)

For an electrical short from the positive wire to the negative

wire. For an electrical short from the positive wire to the

chassis. Test sleeper heater fan. (See Test Procedure)

The following material covers the sleeper fan mechanical or electrical

problems that do not indicate a Code 13. Note that the sleeper fan is high

side switched.

Check:

Sleeper Heater system

a)

The wiring connections and polarity.

b)

Test sleeper heater fan. (See Test Procedure)

Use Test Procedure items (e) and (f) to determine if PROHEAT

is supplying enough power to drive the sleeper fan.

Test Procedure:

a)

b)

Restart the PROHEAT, If there is still an error, replace the PCM.

c)

Check for correct voltage at the sleeper fan output on the

PCM. (See wiring diagram on page 1-4 and page 1-5.)

d)

Reconnect sleeper fan harness. Start the PROHEAT.

e)

Check for voltage at the thermostat, isolator (if used) and the

sleeper fan motor. The power to the sleeper heater fan is

regulated by voltage in the PCM. It will read low when trying

to drive the sleeper fan.

Connect sleeper heater fan motor directly to a remote power

source of the rated voltage (12/24 Volts). Does the motor run?
