ABSTRACT:
An EMD locomotive engine low oil governor reset system, the governor having a low oil reset plunger which moves from an operating position to a tripped position out of a side of the governor when a low oil condition has been sensed and has initiated shut down of the engine, the governor also providing an electrical signal indicating the plunger has been tripped, the system comprising a solenoid mounted adjacent the governor and having a plunger in alignment with the low oil reset plunger for engaging the plunger in the tripped position and moving it to the operating position when the solenoid is activated, the solenoid being connected to the governor so as to receive the electrical signal therefrom; and a timer associated with the solenoid for delaying activation of the solenoid for a predetermined period of time after receipt of the electrical signal from the governor.
