Circuit/System Verification

NOTE:

Do not have a battery charger connected during the generator testing.

  1. Ignition ON.
  2. Verify that no DTCs are set that would cause a charging system concern.
    • Go to next step: If no DTCs are set 
  3. Verify the scan tool Battery Voltage parameter is 12 V or greater.
    • Go to next step: If 12 V or greater 
  4. Engine running, all accessories OFF,
  5. Verify the scan tool Engine Control Module Battery Volt parameter continually increases when controlling the Generator L from 0% to 100% with a scan tool. It may take up to 20 s for the battery voltage to stabilize between each setpoint change.
    • If the battery voltage does not continually increase 

      Refer to Circuit/System Testing below.

    • Go to next step: If the battery voltage continually increases 
  6. All OK.
