VLC 002388.05 – Center Spot Light Circuit Current Low

VLC 002388.05 (VLC 2388.05)

Code: 002388.05

Shortcode: 2388.05

Description:

This error code, VLC 002388.05, indicates that the Vehicle Load Center (VLC) control unit has detected an open circuit in the center spot light circuit. The current in the circuit is below 500 milliamperes (0.5 amps), suggesting a possible disconnection or break in the circuit.

Reaction:

When this fault is detected, the center spot light will not operate, reducing visibility and illumination around the vehicle.

Recommendations:

Inspect Wiring and Connections:

  • Check the wiring and connectors associated with the center spot light circuit for any signs of damage, disconnections, or corrosion. Secure or replace any faulty wiring or connectors.

Check the Spot Light Bulb:

  • Ensure that the center spot light bulb is functioning properly. Replace any burnt-out or damaged bulbs.

Test the Relay and Fuse:

  • Verify that the relay and fuse for the center spot light circuit are intact and functioning. Replace any faulty relays or blown fuses.

Measure Circuit Current:

  • Use a multimeter to measure the current in the center spot light circuit to confirm it is below 500 milliamperes. This can help pinpoint the location of the open circuit.

Consult Technical Support:

  • If the issue persists, contact technical support for further diagnostics and assistance. Provide detailed information about the fault and the steps taken to resolve it.

Note:

Open circuits can be caused by factors such as wire fatigue, mechanical damage, or environmental factors. Regular inspection and maintenance of electrical circuits can help prevent these issues.
