7.44 DTC P1668, P2500 or P2501

DTC Descriptors

This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTCs:

•

DTC P1668 – Generator L Terminal Circuit Malfunction

•

DTC P2500 – Generator L Terminal Low Voltage

•

DTC P2501 – Generator L Terminal High Voltage

Engine Management – V6 – Diagnostics

Page 6C1-2–167

Circuit Description

The engine control module (ECM) applies a signal voltage to the Generator L (GEN L) terminal circuit to control the load
of the generator on the engine. Refer to 6D1-1 Charging System for details of the charging system operation.

A GEN L terminal circuit DTC sets if the ECM detects the Gen L circuit voltage is outside the specified range for a
predetermined set of parameters.

Conditions for Running the DTC

DTC P1668

Runs continuously when one of the following conditions are met:

•

Ignition on Test – The ignition is switched on with the engine not running for 5 seconds.

•

Engine Run Test – The engine is running at speed less than 3,000 rpm

DTC P2500

Runs continuously when the following conditions are met:

•

There is no generator, CKP sensor or CMP sensor DTC set.

•

The engine is running.

•

The generator is not commanded off.

DTC P2501

Runs continuously when the following conditions are met:

•

There is no generator, CKP sensor or CMP sensor DTC set.

•

The ignition is switched on with the engine not running.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P1668

•

Ignition on Test – the ECM detects a high signal voltage on the Gen L for 5 seconds.

•

Engine Run Test – the ECM detects a low signal voltage on the Gen L for 5 seconds.

DTC P2500

The ECM detects a low signal voltage on the Gen L for 15 seconds.

DTC P2501

The ECM detects a high signal voltage on the Gen L for 5 seconds.

Conditions for Clearing DTC

The Generator L-terminal circuit are Type C DTCs. Refer to 1.4 Diagnostic Trouble Codes in this Section, for action
taken when a Type C DTC sets and conditions for clearing Type C DTCs.

Additional Information

•

For an intermittent fault condition, refer to 5.2

Intermittent Fault Conditions in this Section.

•

Refer to 6C1-1 Engine Management – V6 – General Information for details of the ECM operation.

•

Refer to 6D1-1 Charging System – V6 for details of the charging system operation.

•

Since fault condition in a wiring connector may trigger DTCs, always test the connectors related to this diagnostic
procedure for shorted terminals or poor wiring connection before replacing any component. Refer to 8A Electrical -
Body and Chassis for information on electrical fault diagnosis.
