The auxiliary power module (APM) 12-volt output voltage is used for a 12-volt line APM output voltage control and a 12-volt line voltage sensor rationality check.
The engine is running.
12-volt output voltage is greater than 18 volts for 2 seconds.
APM PWM off.
In both the hardware and software faults, normal range for 160 ms.
• | Battery cable open (load dump). |
• | Fuse/relay box electrical failures. |

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.
