Generator Control Module Description and Operation: Overview
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The generator control module is also referred to as the starter/generator control module. The generator control module is located in the engine compartment.
The generator control module is comprised of the following control modules:
- Hybrid/EV powertrain control module 1
- 14V power module
- Drive motor control module
The generator control module functions as an inverter, inverting high voltage direct current (DC) electrical energy to 3 phase alternating current (AC) electrical energy and vice versa. The generator control module also functions as a DC to DC converter, converting high voltage DC to 14 volts DC. The generator control module is liquid cooled.
