Final Drive Control Module

C2100-BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW





When Monitored
Continuously.

Set Condition
The Final Drive Control Module detects that system voltage is below 9.0 volts for 60 seconds.

Possible Causes
- INTERMITTENT BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW
- CHARGING SYSTEM DTCS PRESENT
- FINAL DRIVE CONTROL MODULE POWER CIRCUITS OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
- FINAL DRIVE CONTROL MODULE

Diagnostic Test
1. CHARGING SYSTEM DTCS PRESENT
Ignition on.
With the scan tool, select. View DTCs in the Powertrain Control Module.
Are there any Charging System or related voltage DTCs present?
Yes >> Perform any Charging System DTC diagnostic procedures before continuing with this test.
No >> Go to 2.
2. DTC IS ACTIVE
With the scan tool, select View DTCs in the Final Drive Control Module.
Is the status Active for this DTC?
Yes >> Go to 3.
No >> Go to 5.
3. (A34) FUSED B+ CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE





Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Final Drive Control Module harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
With a 12-volt test light connected to ground, check the (A34) Fused B+ circuit in the Final Drive Control Module harness connector.

NOTE: The test light must illuminate brightly. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.

Does the test light illuminate brightly?
Yes >> Go to 4.
No >> Repair the (A34) Fused B+ circuit for an open circuit or high resistance.
