DTC Descriptors
DTC P1A95
- DC/DC Converter Stuck in 14-42 Volt Direction
DTC P1A96
- DC/DC Converter Stuck in 42-14 Volt Direction
Circuit/System Description
The starter/generator control module (SGCM) monitors to detect auxiliary power module (APM) fault when the APM is commanded in the normal charge mode causing an over current condition. If a fault is detected, the appropriate DTC will set.
Conditions for Running the DTC
P1A95, P1A96
The engine is running.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
P1A95
DC-DC direction indicates 42-14 direction, but converter stays in 14-42 direction and current is greater than 20 amps for 1 second.
P1A96
DC-DC direction indicates 14-42 direction, but converter stays in 42-14 direction and current is less than -20 amps for 1 second.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
P1A95, P1A96
* Stop PWM (MGU shutdown)
* APM PWM off
* Battery disconnection (disconnect SW on/off)
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
P1A95, P1A96
Clears 30 seconds after cycle wakeup signal.

Circuit/System Verification
Caution: To help avoid personal injury, additional precautions must be taken prior to working on the generator control module or the generator starter. After removing the 36V battery cables from the generator battery, remove both engine wiring harness connectors from the generator control module. Wait at least 5 minutes and then remove the generator control module cover. Verify voltage levels at all 36V, 12V, and 3-phase connections, are less than 3 volts using a DMM before proceeding.
If DTC is current, replace the SGCM.
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.
