NOTE: The DTC needs to be cleared before actuating the Solenoid, if the DTC is not cleared, the Solenoid may not be allowed to actuate. With a scan tool, actuate the Generator Field Driver. NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright proportional to the maximum duty cycle allowed by the scan tool. For example, if the scan tool allows 100% actuation, the brightness should be as bright as a direct connection to the battery. If the scan tool allows a maximum 25% actuation, the brightness should be 25% as bright as a direct connection to the battery. Does the test light illuminate brightly and flash on and off? Yes Replace the Generator. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. See «DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure»(ref-352681-S03115589192010010600000) . No Go to step 5
  5. POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Generator and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires. Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals. Verify that there is good pin to terminal contact in the Generator and Powertrain Control Module connectors. Perform any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply. Were there any problems found? Yes Repair as necessary. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. See «DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure»(ref-352681-S03115589192010010600000) . No Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the Service Information. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. See «DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure»(ref-352681-S03115589192010010600000) .
