Circuit/System Verification

NOTE:

Do not have a battery charger connected during the generator testing.

  1. Ignition ON.
  2. Verify that no G13 Generator or B18 Battery Current Sensor DTCs are set that would cause a charging system concern.
    • If no DTCs are set 
  3. Verify the scan tool Body Control Module Battery Voltage parameter is 12 V or greater.
    • If 12 V or greater 
  4. Engine running, all accessories OFF.
  5. Verify the scan tool Body Control Module Battery Voltage parameter continually increases when controlling the Body Control Module Generator Regulator Setpoint from 10% to 80% with a scan tool. It may take up to 10 seconds for the battery voltage to stabilize between each setpoint change.
    • If the battery voltage continually increases 
  6. All OK.
