GPCM Battery voltage feed circuit | P064C | P064C | -- |
The glow control system is operated when the engine coolant temperature is low, which allows easier engine starting. If the ignition switch is turned ON when the engine coolant temperature is low, the engine control module (ECM) illuminates the glow indicator lamp and turns ON the glow plugs. After a fixed time passes, the ECM turns OFF the glow indicator lamp and the glow plugs. The glow plug control module (GPCM) has the ability to perform internal diagnostics for voltage and the output state of the glow plugs. If the GPCM detects a GPCM system voltage error, the GPCM will send a message to the ECM via the controller area network (CAN) communication bus and sets this DTC.
• | DTCs U0073 and U0106 are not set. |
• | The battery voltage is between 10-16 volts. |
• | The ignition is ON for longer than 2 seconds. |
Either of following condition is met:
• | The GPCM detects system voltage is too low. |
• | The GPCM detects any of the glow plug switches defective. |
• | The ECM received an error messages from the GPCM. |
DTC P064C is a Type B DTC.
DTC P064C is a Type B DTC.
A charging system condition may set this DTC.

Powertrain Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Type Definitions
Verify the integrity of the GPCM power supply or CAN communication circuit by inspecting for the following conditions:
• | Damaged components |
• | Loose or improper installation |
Important: You must perform Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the battery voltage feed circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the GPCM. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
