Operating A Mower Deck Or Attachment - Toro Groundsmaster 360 Operator's Manual

Verifying the Output Function
1. Park the machine on a level surface, lower the
attachment, shut off the engine, and engage the parking
brake.
2. Raise the seat.
3. Locate wire harness and connectors near the controller.
4. Carefully unplug the loopback connector from the
harness connector.
5. Connect the Diagnostic ACE connector to the
appropriate harness connector. If the machine comes
with a front attachment, it will have 2 controllers.
Note: Ensure that the correct overlay decal is
positioned on the Diagnostic ACE.
6. Turn the key switch to the O
start the engine.
Note: The red text on the overlay decal refers to input
switches and the green text refers to outputs.
7. The "inputs displayed" LED, on the lower right
column of the Diagnostic ACE, should be illuminated.
If the "outputs displayed" LED is illuminated, press
the toggle button on the Diagnostic ACE to change it
to "inputs displayed."
Note: You may need to toggle between "inputs
displayed" and "outputs displayed" several times to do
the following step. To toggle back and forth, press the
toggle button once. Do this as often as necessary; do
not hold the button.
8. Sit on the seat and attempt to operate the desired
function of the machine. The appropriate output
LEDs should illuminate to indicate that the ECM is
turning on that function.
Note: If the correct output LEDs do not illuminate, verify
that the required input switches are in the necessary positions
to allow that function to occur. Verify the correct switch
function.
If the output LEDs are on as specified but the machine does
not function properly, this indicates a non-electrical problem;
repair as needed.
Note: If each output switch is in the correct position and
functioning correctly but the output LEDs are not correctly
illuminated, this indicates an ECM problem. If this occurs,
contact your Toro Distributor for assistance.
Important: Do not leave the Diagnostic ACE display
connected to the machine. It is not designed to
withstand the environment of the everyday use of the
machine. After using the Diagnostic ACE, disconnect it
from the machine and connect the loop-back connector
to the wire-harness connector. The machine cannot
operate without the loopback connector installed on the
wire harness. Store the Diagnostic ACE in dry, secure
location in the shop, not on the machine.
