PTD 000158.04 – Supply Voltage (ELX) Too Low
PTD 000158.04 (PTD 158.04)
Code: 000158.04
Shortcode: 158.04
Description:
This diagnostic trouble code is generated when the control software detects that the supply voltage (ELX) of the control unit for range shifting is below 9 V. This can be caused by battery issues, wiring problems, or faults in the control unit.
Reaction:
When this error is detected, the transmission will go to neutral to prevent potential damage.
Recommendations:
Check Battery Voltage:
- Ensure that the battery is fully charged and functioning correctly.
- Replace the battery if it is unable to maintain a charge above 9 V.
Inspect Wiring and Connections:
- Check the wiring and connections between the battery and the control unit for range shifting.
- Repair or replace any damaged or corroded wires and connectors.
Control Unit Inspection:
- Test the control unit to ensure it is receiving the correct voltage.
- Replace the control unit if it is found to be faulty.
Consult Technical Support:
- If the issue persists, seek assistance from technical support or a qualified technician.
Monitor System:
- After addressing the issue, monitor the supply voltage to ensure it remains within the specified range.
Note:
Maintaining a healthy battery and ensuring clean, secure electrical connections are essential for preventing low voltage issues and ensuring the reliable operation of the control unit.
