Generator Field/F Terminal Circuit Low
Key terms: Control module: a small computer that runs one part of the car · SAE J2012: the standard generic code list · Powertrain: engine, transmission and emissions
1What it means in plain English
The generator (alternator) field terminal circuit has a fault, so charging may be reduced or stopped.
2Common causes
- Faulty alternator
- Damaged wiring or connector
- Blown fuse
- Poor ground connection
- Engine control module fault
3Can I drive?
If the battery light is on or the car is hard to start, drive straight to a workshop. The battery will eventually go flat and leave the car stranded.
