How to fix Eng code on Thermo King APU
#APU #ThermoKing #EngCode
EnG: This code indicates that the "8" circuit has a failure. This can be caused by an open engine reset switch (resulting from low oil pressure or high water temperature) or the Main Power On/Off Switch is in the off position.
ALSO
this 1 is also common if there is air in the coolant lines, if you recently had the trucks coolant drained for any reason and the apu was not bled of air, then it will throw this code also
AcS: This code indicates that an abnormal air conditioning system condition has occured. Typical cause are high discharge pressure or low pressure. (In my own words your APU needs Freon)
ALt: This code indicates that a charging system failure has occurred. This code will occur if there is no alternator output after 2 minutes of operation.

Thank you. Saved my Aaatttthhh
*** IF THE ABOVE DOESNT WORK, CHANGE THE F8 FUSE ON THE FUSE BOX. IT CAN ALSO CAUSE THE ENG CODE ***
Thank you
My apu I have to hit the reset button more often. It’s so hard diagnose the problem. Changed batteries. Cleaned terminals. Checked voltage on alt is good. Fuses are good. But I keep having to hit the reset button daily while the engine code is on to get the apu to start.
Yes thanks driver

Condenser fan is AC and it would throw an ACS code not ENG. if you have to hit the reset, there is obviously an issue still.
Hi i have a question my Truck Apu is also showing eng code after the reset it stars for 3-4 seconds or try to start but goes off so any suggestion ? I checked everything
That was actually helpful for me Thank you 🙏 for that. But I have questions about fuel and the Engine Something the Engine just shut of by it self and turn on again it work what do think about it? Any body dealing with the some situation if you have any idea? Thank you!

Just set your temperature down. Your APU should not turn off until it cools down to the temperature that you set.
Also, my company neglected to turn back on the valves for coolant after it was in the shop and I received the eng with the red triangle, if the truck was in the shop I would definitely check that too
Спасибо за информацию
Thanks you so much ur a good person I thought I was going to freeze to death. Also I was wounding how long should my apu run at night mine runs for about a minute then shuts off I’m running my bunk heater and tv but still seems like it should be on more often

The thermo King starts if the batteries are low or is the AC is running. The minimum time and maximum time it can run at once can also be changed with a computer. Usually if it won't stay running then there is a fault

I don't think yours has that button. Try bunk controller on, ignition key off then hold the Regen button on the dash for like 30 seconds. If the light doesn't clear then just try it again. Depending on your issue the code may not clear until a repair is made
Вадим приветствую! Увидел это твоё видео, может ты сможешь помочь советом) У меня такой же apu termo king я все проверил что ты перечислил. Так вот этот код пропал, и apu начал заводится но так и не заводится просто крутит стартер и не заводится в итоге. Можешь подсказать пожалуйста в чем может быть причина если знаешь или сталкивался с подобным? Заранее благодарю🤝

Посмотри ремень, все ли шкифты крутятся? У меня было буквально пару дней назад такое. Заклинил стартер, постукал молотком и он начал крутить. Так же проверь топливную помпу. Сними Шланг и проверь если качает топливо.

My TK is just like yours I get the same Code I have a leaking coolant reservoir I think it has Something to do with that. When I try to start it doesn’t even turn. I been looking for the reset button but can’t find it

Yeah leaking coolant reservoir could be the problem. Also, check the thermostat on the TK. Hope you found the button, it’s gonna be on the side of the black box that’s in one of your storage places. Some have it from driver side, others from passenger side of the vehicle

All your belts are good too? Not ripped? Try leaving that small cover open so it keeps the engine cooler. Mine started throwing eng code again today. I let the APU cool down for a bit, opened that engine cover, now it’s working fine.
Also, the Coolant level has to be to the TOP TOP
Did all this the eng light comes on as soon as I push the button to turn on

Even though you said you already checked the coolant level you should have still showed us how you check it and where it is located. It would made a better informative video.

It’s the main truck coolant. If you didn’t know how to check the coolant level in your truck you shouldn’t be driving a truck. He states that some units have a standalone coolant tank but his is off of the trucks. I thought it was pretty clear but then again I’m not an idiot.
He didn’t say anything about the fuel pump !!!
Where’s coolant level at

My coolant comes from the expansion tank on the truck. I know some units have their own tank, but mine is connected to the truck
