Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The starter/generator control module coolant pump is a single speed ON/OFF pump that circulates coolant through the auxiliary radiator and the starter/generator to control the temperature of the starter/generator. The starter/generator cooling system is separate from the engine cooling system and does not share any coolant or components. The starter/generator control module coolant pump is controlled by the starter/generator coolant pump relay. The relay switch and coil both receive B+. The starter/generator control module controls the relay coil by applying ground to the coil control circuit. With the coil grounded, the relay switch is closed and voltage is sent to the starter/generator control module coolant pump, which will begin circulating coolant.

The starter/generator control module uses the exponentially weighted moving average to calculate temperature fluctuations in the starter/generator cooling system. In addition, this diagnostic compares the temperature rate of change by a slope calculation within a set time when the starter/generator control module coolant pump turns ON. This diagnostic runs once after pump turns ON. If the temperature changes over time too quickly, the starter/generator control module will indicate a fault.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Verify the coolant level of the starter/generator cooling system is normal.

• If the coolant level is low

Inspect the starter/generator cooling system for any leaks.

• If the coolant level is normal

2. Verify the starter/generator cooling system auxiliary radiator is clear of any debris, bent fins, or other damage which may inhibit airflow.

• If debris are found

Clean the auxiliary radiator.

• If damage is found

Replace the auxiliary radiator.

• If the coolant level is normal

3. Verify the starter/generator cooling system hoses are properly routed and are not kinked.

• If any hoses are improperly routed or kinked

Removed and properly route the hose.

• If all hoses are routed properly and are not kinked

4. Ignition ON.

5. Verify the G22 starter/generator control module coolant pump turns ON and OFF when commanding the Motor Coolant Pump Relay Enable ON and OFF with a scan tool. The G22 starter/generator control module coolant pump will make an audible noise during operation.

• If the G22 starter/generator control module coolant pump does not turn ON and OFF

Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

• If the G22 starter/generator control module coolant pump turns ON and OFF

6. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

Danger:
Always perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.


The High Voltage Disabling procedure will perform the following tasks:


* Identify how to disable high voltage.


* Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage.


* Identify condition under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.


Before working on any high voltage system, be sure to wear the following Personal Protection Equipment:


* Safety glasses with appropriate side shields when within 15 meters (50 feet) of the vehicle, either indoors or outdoors.


* Certified and up-to-date Class "0" Insulation gloves rated at 1000V with leather protectors.


- Visually and functionally inspect the gloves before use.


- Wear the Insulation gloves with leather protectors at all times when working with the high voltage battery assembly, whether the system is energized or not.


Failure to follow the procedures exactly as written may result in serious injury or death.


Danger:
The eAssist battery pack assembly will utilize an exchange program. Please consult the most recent revision of bulletin/PI# PIC5520, available in Service Information♦(SI), for a list of approved eAssist battery pack assembly service procedures. Components that may be removed and serviced without exchanging the complete battery pack assembly are identified in the bulletin/PI. Please contact the GM Technical Assistance Center (1-877-446-8227) if you have any questions.
