•The gearshift lever must be in P (Park)or N (Neutral) in order for the starterto operate.
•Try operating the starter switch severaltimes. This operation may cleanpotentially corroded contacts or makethe switch temporarily operable untilyou can reach the dealer.
•If all electrical connections are tightand you need assistance to start, SeeJump Starting the Vehicle (page 190).
If engine cranks but won’t start
Prolonged starter cranking (in excess of 10seconds) could cause damage to thestarter motor or the high-pressure fuelpump.
•Check the fuel gauge. You may be outof fuel. If the gauge shows that thereis fuel in the tank, the trouble may bein the electrical system or the fuelsystem. If equipped with an auxiliarytank, be sure that the tank controlswitch is set for the tank with fuel andnot on an empty tank.
•Leaving your ignition key turned to onfor over two minutes without startingmay make starting difficult becausethe glow plugs will cease activation.Reset the system by turning the ignitionkey to off and then back to on again.
Note:If the system is out of fuel and theengine will not start, do not continuecranking the engine. Continued cranking candamage the high-pressure fuel pump.
If the engine runs hot
The following could cause the engine tooverheat:
•Lack of coolant
•Dirty cooling system.
•Plugged radiator fins, A/C condenserand/or oil cooler
•Malfunctioning fan drive
•Driving with frozen coolant
•Sticking thermostat
•Overloading or pulling heavy trailersduring hot weather
•Grill or radiator air blockage
•Slipping or missing drive belt
•Plugged or very dirty air filter
If fuses burn out
WARNING: Replacement fuses andcircuit breakers must always be thesame rating as the original equipmentshown. Never replace a fuse or circuitbreaker with one of a higher rating.Higher rated fuses or circuit breakerscould allow circuit overloading in theevent of a circuit malfunction, resultingin severe vehicle damage or personalinjury due to fire.
Burned-out or blown fuses usually indicatean electrical short-circuit, although a fusemay occasionally burn out from vibration.Insert a second fuse. If this fuseimmediately burns out and you cannotlocate the cause, return your vehicle toyour dealer for a circuit check. SeeChanging a Fuse (page 211).
Selective catalytic reduction systemspeed limit and Idle-only modes

To make sure that the catalytic converterand other emission control componentscontinue to work properly:
•Do not crank the engine for more than10 seconds at a time.
•Do not run the engine with a spark pluglead disconnected.
•Do not push-start or tow-start yourvehicle. Use booster cables. See JumpStarting the Vehicle (page 190).
