| STEP | CHECK | YES | NO |
1.CHECK GENERATOR.
1) Start the engine.
2) Run the engine at idle after warming up.
3) Measure the voltage between generator terminal B and chassis ground.
Terminals
Generator terminal B (+) — Chassis ground (−):
Is the voltage 10 — 15 V?
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC C0042 POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE FAILURE">Go to Step 2.
Repair the generator.
2.CHECK BATTERY TERMINAL.
Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
Are the positive and negative battery terminals clamped tightly?
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC C0042 POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE FAILURE">Go to Step 3.
Install the battery terminal correctly.
3.CHECK VDCCM&H/U INPUT VOLTAGE.
1) Disconnect the connector from the VDCCM&H/U.
2) Run the engine at idle.
3) Operate devices such as headlights, air conditioner, defogger, etc. which produce an electrical load.
4) Measure the voltage between VDCCM&H/U connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(B310) No. 1 (+) — Chassis ground (−):
(B310) No. 14 (+) — Chassis ground (−):
(B310) No. 20 (+) — Chassis ground (−):
Is the voltage 10 — 15 V?
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC C0042 POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE FAILURE">Go to Step 4.
Repair the power supply circuit.
4.CHECK VDCCM&H/U GROUND CIRCUIT (CHECK FOR OPEN CIRCUIT).
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Measure the resistance between VDCCM&H/U connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(B310) No. 26 — Chassis ground:
Is the resistance less than 10 ??
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC C0042 POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE FAILURE">Go to Step 5.
Repair the VDCCM&H/U ground harness.
5.CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS.
Is there poor contact of connector between generator, battery and VDCCM&H/U?
Repair the connector.
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC C0042 POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE FAILURE">Go to Step 6.
6.CHECK VDCCM&H/U.
1) Connect all connectors.
2) Perform the Clear Memory Mode. Clear Memory Mode">
3) Perform the Inspection Mode. Inspection Mode">
4) Read the DTC. Read Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)">
Is the same DTC displayed?
Replace the VDCCM&H/U. VDC Control Module and Hydraulic Control Unit (VDCCM&H/U)">
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC C0042 POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE FAILURE">Go to Step 7.
7.CHECK DETECTION OF OTHER DTCS FOR VDC.
Read Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)">
Is any other DTC displayed?
Perform the diagnosis according to DTC. List of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)">
Currently, it is normal. There may have been a temporary poor contact in the harness and connector or a temporary noise interference.
