Dear Gents

Would appreciate , someone could tell me , the causes of not activating reverse power trip due to Wrong adjustment of Fuel rack.Governor Linkage.

My WAG would be:

Test set leads not connected properly.

Trip circuit(s) was/are "lifted" / defeated.

Faulty relay.

Improper test sequence.

Reverse Power Relay not "armed".

"Anti-pump" circuit (If present) active.

Was the diesel fuel gauge rising during this time?
