WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 GMC Yukon, 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe, and 2012 Cadillac Escalade. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Verify that DTCs P0C01, P0C04, P0BFD, or P0BFE is not set.
    2. WARNING:

    Always perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.

    The High Voltage Disabling procedure will perform the following tasks:

    • Identify how to disable high voltage.
    • Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage.
    • Identify condition under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.

    Failure to follow the procedures exactly as written may result in serious injury or death.

  2. Perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure for servicing at the drive motor generator control module cable connections.
  3. Remove the 3-phase cable assembly from the T6 drive motor generator control module distribution box. Refer to Generator Control Module 3-Phase Cable Assembly ReplacementΒ .
  4. Test for less than 0.5 Ξ© between each of the AC circuit terminals listed below:
    • Drive motor 1st position phase U and phase V terminal
    • Drive motor 1st position phase V and phase W terminal
    • Drive motor 2nd position phase U and phase V terminal
    • Drive motor 2nd position phase V and phase W terminal
    • If not the specified value, test the AC circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the appropriate M15 drive motor with generator assembly.
  5. Test for infinite resistance between each of the AC circuit terminals listed below and ground:
    • Drive motor 1st position phase U terminal
    • Drive motor 1st position phase V terminal
    • Drive motor 1st position phase W terminal
    • Drive motor 2nd position phase U terminal
    • Drive motor 2nd position phase V terminal
    • Drive motor 2nd position phase W terminal
    • If not the specified value, test the AC circuit for a short to ground or a short between the AC circuit terminals and the aluminum cable mounting block. If the circuit tests normal replace the appropriate M15 drive motor with generator assembly.
  6. Replace the 3 phase cable assembly and the appropriate M15 drive motor with generator assembly. If the DTC resets replace the T6 drive motor power inverter module.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • β€’ You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • β€’ Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • β€’ The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • β€’ You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • β€’ You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
