Circuit/System Verification

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.

Caution: To help avoid personal injury, be careful when working in the vicinity of the generator battery disconnect control module. Internal components will still be live, 36V potential, even when the cover has been opened or removed.

1. If there are any current DTCs set, diagnose those first, including any clearing any codes.
2. Cycle the ignition switch from OFF to RUN several times, allowing at least 5 seconds after each transition from Ignition OFF to RUN.

^ If the DTC resets, replace the BECM.
