Diagnostic boundary

A diagnostic trouble code reports that a monitored test failed. It does not prove one specific part is bad, and manufacturer logic can add vehicle-specific conditions.

Do not replace the generator control module until power, ground, communication, cooling, and related high-voltage safety checks are complete.

Useful checks before replacing parts

Check generator control module communication, power and ground, generator speed data, torque command, inverter status, DC bus voltage, and freeze-frame conditions.
Inspect module connectors, coolant or water intrusion, low-voltage supply stability, high-voltage interlock state, harness damage, and related generator or inverter codes.
Verify whether the fault is module communication, internal module performance, generator feedback, or supporting power and ground before replacement.
