Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The VDM requires an operating voltage that is between 9 and 16 volts. The VDM receives this voltage from the BCM. The VDM has a single ground circuit located in the engine compartment wiring harness. An overcharging condition in the charging system will result in the VDM setting a DTC. This DTC may also set in the VDM due to battery charging or vehicle jump starting events.
