Technicians like to follow along — that's why this audiobook exists. The audio walks the book section by section, not synced page-by-page — flip pages at your own pace and pause or rewind anytime; diagrams and tables are in the ebook.

WHAT THIS BOOK IS — AND WHAT IT IS NOT: This is the TriPace DIAGNOSTIC manual — Thermo King TK 54294-19-OD (Rev. 0, 08/10), © 2010 Thermo King Corporation. It is the diagnostics and troubleshooting book for the TriPace all-electric auxiliary power unit (Thermo King writes the unit's name both ways — TriPace on the manual's cover, TriPac e in its pages) and its control system: Main Controller Software Revision 31xx (3100 and 3101), HMI Control Panel Software Revision 32xx (3200), Smart Charger Module (SCM) Software Revision 42xx (4200) and TK Monitor Software Revision 1.0, on Main Controller Board Rev C and SCM Rev 1 hardware: the control-system hardware and connector maps, the software and programmable features, system operation and power flow, the complete TriPace alarm code diagnostics, the complete air heater diagnostics and fault codes, the service procedures, and the wiring and schematic diagrams. It is NOT the operator's manual — the TriPac operator material is in our separate Truck APU book — and it does NOT cover the diesel TriPac or TriPac Evolution APUs. Also stated plainly: this manual has no alphabetical index — Thermo King built its finding around the section contents lists, and those are all in this book. Two pages in the factory file are blank divider pages as published, reproduced blank exactly as printed.
