DTC Descriptor
DTC P16F3
- Control Module Redundant Memory Performance
Circuit/System Description
This diagnostic applies to internal microprocessor integrity conditions within the hybrid powertrain control module. The hybrid powertrain control module is internal to the drive motor generator power inverter module, and is not serviced separately. The hybrid powertrain control module monitors its ability to read and write to the memory. The hybrid powertrain control module processor stores identical data in two locations and compares the data to verify that the stored data is correct.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The system voltage is 8-18 V.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The control module has detected that identical stored data is not the same when retrieved.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
* DTC P16F3 is a Type A DTC.
* The hybrid powertrain control module commands the battery energy control module to open the high voltage contactor relays.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTC P16F3 is a Type A DTC.
