Fault-Tracing Information

Fault-tracing

Checking the wiring
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if there is no communication between the engine control module (ECM) and the alternator control module (ACM). This may be due to a fault in the signal cable between the control modules or a damaged communication device in one or both of the control modules.

Hint: This diagnostic trouble code (DTC) can be stored if a generator (GEN) with an alternator control module (ACM) (charge regulator) not intended for LIN communication is installed.

Check the connector on the alternator control module (ACM). Check for contact resistance and oxidation.
Check the signal cable. Check for an open-circuit. Check for a short-circuit to ground. Check for a short-circuit to supply voltage.
Take readings between:
- Engine control module (ECM) #A46 (#A46) and alternator control module (ACM) #B2.
Remedy as necessary.
