The starter/generator control module (SGCM) monitors to detect the failure of the auxiliary power module (APM) temperature sensor circuit by taking the average of the 2 power inverter module (PIM) sensors and subtracting the module temperature and looking for a difference.
The engine is running.
APM temperature sensor is greater than 55°C (131°F) for 2 seconds.
APM 50 percent maximum current output
Voltage limit returns to normal range for 10 seconds.
Possible internal failure at temperature sensor

Caution: To help avoid personal injury, additional precautions must be taken prior to working on the generator control module or the generator starter. After removing the 36V battery cables from the generator battery, remove both engine wiring harness connectors from the generator control module. Wait at least 5 minutes and then remove the generator control module cover. Verify voltage levels at all 36V, 12V, and 3-phase connections, are less than 3 volts using a DMM before proceeding.
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
