VLC 522311.05 – Rear Washer Pump Circuit Current Low
VLC 522311.05 (VLC )
Code: 522311.05
Shortcode:
Description:
This error code, VLC 522311.05, indicates that the Vehicle Load Center (VLC) control unit has detected an open circuit in the rear washer pump 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 rear washer pump will not operate, preventing the rear windshield from being properly cleaned.
Recommendations:
Inspect Wiring and Connections:
- Check the wiring and connectors associated with the rear washer pump circuit for any signs of damage, disconnections, or corrosion. Secure or replace any faulty wiring or connectors.
Check the Washer Pump:
- Ensure that the rear washer pump is functioning properly. Replace any faulty or damaged washer pumps.
Test the Relay and Fuse:
- Verify that the relay and fuse for the rear washer pump circuit are intact and functioning. Replace any faulty relays or blown fuses.
Measure Circuit Current:
- Use a multimeter to measure the current in the rear washer pump 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.
