Visual Inspection and Diagnostic Pre-checks
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Lincoln MKX and 2014 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Before diagnosing or repairing the charging system inspect the following items:
- Generator current sensor
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
DTC FAULT TRIGGER CONDITIONS
| DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Conditions |
|---|---|---|
|
Generator Current Sensor Circuit Range/Performance | The PCM does not detect current through the generator current sensor and there are no generator current sensor circuit DTCs set. |
|
Generator Current Sensor Circuit Low | The PCM senses lower than expected voltage on the generator current sensor feedback circuit, indicating an open or a short directly to ground. |
|
Generator Current Sensor Circuit High | The PCM senses higher than expected voltage on the generator current sensor feedback circuit, indicating a short directly to voltage. |
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Generator current sensor
- PCM
