DRIVE AND POWER SYSTEM ERROR CODES (Continued)
Error Code Fault Description Corrective Action
09
Improper or no contact at the drive
mode switch (defective switch as
indicated by a short inside or not in
the correct position -between the
positions). Check for moisture in the
mode switch. If moisture is present,
dry switch.
Refer to the Motor Controller Circuit Diagram for
troubleshooting the start switch circuit. There should be no
input voltage present at the motor controller connector, CH1
harness, pins 4 and 5, from the drive mode switch if the
switch is in the drive low position. Voltage should only be
present at pins 4 or 5, but not both, when drive high or
reverse mode is selected.
11
Accelerator pedal was pushed when
the car was first turned on.
Code 11 sets while driving.
Release the accelerator pedal, select a drive mode and then
push the accelerator pedal.
Check accelerator circuit and pedal assembly. (See
accelerator pedal diagnosis and testing.)
15
Low battery pack voltage (less than
68.3 VDC).
Charge the car (see Charger in this section for instructions
on charging the battery).
16
Battery pack voltage is greater than
86 VDC.
Check the battery pack. Verify that the proper voltage is
present (see Step 4 of the Drive System Troubleshooting
Chart for instructions on checking battery voltage). If the
voltage is over 86 VDC, try running the headlights for a little
while to drain the battery charge. If the voltage is below 86
VDC, there is a problem with the sensing circuit in the motor
controller.
21
Problem with the accelerator pedal
wiring.
See Accelerator Pedal – Diagnosis and Testing
23
Motor field current is too high when
the start switch is closed and the
reverse drive mode is selected.
Replace the motor controller.
24
Motor field current is too high when
the start switch is closed and the
forward drive mode is selected.
Replace the motor controller.
27
12 VDC Buss voltage is too low
(less than 9.35 VDC).
Verify 72 VDC is present between motor controller
connector, CH1 harness, pin 1 and the controller negative
terminal when the system is under load, e.g. headlights are
on (refer to the Main Contactor Circuit Diagram). If the
voltage is less than 72 VDC, check the battery to make sure
it has been charged correctly. Voltage may be dropping
below 15 volts under load at the DC/DC converter, pins 7
and 8. If the voltage stays above 9.35 VDC under load at the
DC/DC converter output (pins 9 and 10), then replace the
motor controller. If the voltage drops below 9.35 VDC,
check for loose connections. If no loose connections are
found, the DC/DC converter may be defective.
41
Open thermal protector or transistor
over temperature.
The motor controller is in thermal cutback. Allow cooling and
the status code should disappear. If the problem persists
after the motor controller has cooled, contact Technical
Support at 866-764-0616.
42
Motor armature offset voltage is too
high.
Replace the motor controller.
