motor questions

hey guys,

new to the cummins but not to diesels.

If a 24v motor was in a fire and the only thing that was damaged was all the electrical stuff meaning everyhting i guess, could it be ran some how without all the computer and electronic junk? If not how much is that going to cost to make it run?

If you want to actually make it run. (drive it) I believe that you would need to replace everything burned item because they are all pretty much used. If you just want to see if it can run I found this quick test. I dont know if it works but if it does.... let me know. Just BE CAREFUL to not let the jumpers touch.

A suspect dead VP44 pump can be tested before removal from the engine by first disconnecting the main plug, and locating pins 6 and 7. These are at the right hand side of the socket on the pump when looking at the socket with the pump top uppermost. The pins are numbered in the socket.

Connect a lead from a good earth or Batt - to pin 6

Connect a lead from Batt + to pin 7, Make sure the lead has a good contact, and capable of passing up to 30A, also, make sure it wont come loose when the engine starts, Dont allow it to come into contact with any other pin, or earth while connected to the battery!
