DESCRIPTION

A194388E01
The battery current sensor assembly installed on the negative (-) battery terminal detects the amount of current supplied from the generator.
The battery current sensor assembly changes current to voltage (at the negative (-) battery terminal) and sends it to the power management control ECU. The power management control ECU controls the voltage of the generator based on the signals from the battery current sensor assembly.

DTC No.
