Each diagnostic code consists of the following items: a component identifier (CID), a failure mode identifier (FMI) and a fault indicator ("DIAG"). These items are shown on the upper display. A fault indicator can be active or inactive. The CID identifies the component that has failed in the system. The FMI describes the nature of the problem. When the "DIAG" indicator is FLASHING, the diagnostic code is active. This means that the diagnostic code is present. When the "DIAG" indicator is ON CONTINUOUSLY, the diagnostic code is inactive and the CID FMI is recorded in the fault log. See Systems Operation, "Diagnostic Code Viewing and Clearing" in order to view the fault log. When the "DIAG" indicator is not showing, there are NO diagnostic codes that are detected or recorded. Service personnel interpret the identifiers in order to assist with troubleshooting.
The PRCM has a fault log to help with troubleshooting of diagnostic codes. Inactive diagnostic codes (CID FMI) are recorded in the fault log for viewing at a later time. Also, the number of occurrences are totalled and the number of occurrences are shown on the upper display with the CID and the FMI.
During troubleshooting, it is sometimes necessary to disconnect the harness connector from the PRCM and a diagnostic code of CID 0590 FMI 09 is created. An FMI 09 describes the voltage that is above normal. This fact is also used as an aid in the troubleshooting process. Clear these created diagnostic codes after the particular problem is corrected and the diagnostic code is cleared.
Note: The CID 590 FMI 09 will NOT be logged if the setpoint "P03" is set to "01". Refer to Systems Operation, "Setpoint Viewing and Programming".
