P24EFControl Module Wake-up Circuit/Open
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- Some control modules drive a discrete wake-up output that switches other units on before or alongside the network. P24EF reports an open circuit on that line. GM uses it in the HPC2 battery-side processor of its 2016 and 2019 hybrid tables: with the output commanded off, a control voltage between 2.82 and 7.04 V counts as open, because an intact line would be pulled clearly low. The test samples every 12.5 ms and fails when 480 of 560 samples are bad, about seven seconds; it is Type A, so the MIL comes on after one trip. A broken wire, a backed-out pin or a module with a failed output are the typical reasons. The driver may face a module that does not wake up. P24F0 and P24F1 are the low and high faults.
- What you may notice
- Malfunction indicator lamp on
- Connected module stays asleep, with related communication codes
- Likely causes
- LikelyBroken wake-up wire in the harness
- PossiblePin pushed back or corroded in a module connector
- RareWake-up output of the control module defective
- Inspection (ITP)
- Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
