DC/DC Fault
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Mariner and 2006 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The DC/DC fault (DCF) signal is an input to the PCM from the DC/DC converter. This signal is low under normal conditions and switches high when a fault exists within the DC/DC converter cooling system, the high voltage power supply to the DC/DC converter, or the low voltage output system. The PCM disables or limits the operation of the DC/DC converter by the DC/DC enable circuit (DCE), when a DCF fault is indicated. For additional information on DCF, refer to the DC/DC CONVERTER .
