HCC 001873.03 – Rear Hitch Position Sensor Circuit Voltage High
HCC 001873.03 (HCC 1873.03)
Code: 001873.03
Shortcode: 1873.03
Description:
This error code indicates that the rear hitch position sensor voltage is out of range high, specifically above 4.75 volts. This could be due to a faulty sensor, wiring issues, or a malfunction in the control unit.
Reaction:
The HCC function is degraded when this error code is active.
Recommendations:
- Inspect Wiring and Connections:
- Check the wiring and connections to the rear hitch position sensor for any damage, loose connections, or corrosion.
- Test the Sensor:
- Verify the sensor’s output voltage to confirm it is operating within the specified range.
- Calibrate the Sensor:
- Perform a calibration of the rear hitch position sensor following the manufacturer’s guidelines.
- Replace Faulty Components:
- If the sensor or wiring is found to be faulty, replace the defective components.
- Consult Technical Support:
- If the issue persists after these steps, contact technical support for further diagnostics and assistance.
Note:
Regular maintenance and calibration of the rear hitch position sensor are crucial for reliable operation and to prevent voltage-related issues.
