Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 GMC Sierra, 2004 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2004 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The starter/generator control module (SGCM) electronics are immersed in an internal fluid to distribute the heat of the electronics evenly through the SGCM, this electronics internal fluid is not the coolant that is circulated through the SGCM cooling system. The SGCM monitors 4 separate coolant level sensors to determine if the electronics internal fluid level is low.
