Circuit Description
Output Driver Modules (ODM) are used by PCM to turn on current-driven devices needed to control various engine and transaxle functions. Each ODM can control up to 7 outputs, including fan 1 relay, by supplying ground to device PCM is commanding on. ODMs can diagnose each circuit individually. If ODM "B" output 1 (fan 1 relay driver circuit) detects an improper voltage level, P1651 is set.
Conditions required to set DTC are:
- Ignition is on.
- An improper voltage level detected on fan 1 relay driver circuit.
- Condition present for at least 30 seconds.
