Circuit/System Testing

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.


Caution: To help avoid personal injury, be careful when working in the vicinity of the generator battery disconnect control module. Internal components will still be live, 36V potential, even when the cover has been opened or removed.


Important: Use the following list to identify the appropriate terminals to test:



* J-35616-65B for female terminals
* J-35616-64B for male terminals



P0ABC
1. Disconnect harness connector X1 from the BECM. Refer to Hybrid Battery Service Disconnect/Connect ().
2. Test for less than 6.5 volts between X1 terminal 1 and terminal 12.

If greater than the specified range, replace the BECM.

3. Test for 1.3-1.7k ohms between X1 terminal 1 and ring terminal 7.

If not within the specified range, replace the harness assembly.

4. Test for 1.3-1.7k ohms between X1 terminal 12 and ring terminal 4.

If not within the specified range, replace the harness assembly.




P0ABD
1. Disconnect harness connector X1 from the BECM. Refer to Hybrid Battery Service Disconnect/Connect ().
2. Test for less than 58.5 volts between terminal 1 and terminal 12.

If greater than the specified range, replace the BECM.

3. Test for 1.3-1.7k ohms between X1 terminal 1 and ring terminal 7.

If not within the specified range, replace the harness assembly.

4. Test for 1.3-1.7k ohms between X1 terminal 12 and ring terminal 4.

If not within the specified range, replace the harness assembly.
