P2CC1Generator Voltage Sense Circuit B

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
How the car detects it
P2CC1 is the general fault of a second sense line through which the engine controller reads the actual charging voltage. In the charging system, generator means the alternator; a sense input taps the voltage at the rectifier or battery without load current, so wiring losses do not distort it. Remy describes such a Kelvin sense lead on Chrysler alternators, connected straight to the rectifier plate behind a 2.4 kΩ protective resistor; that terminal is labelled B, which is not the circuit letter of this code. A circuit B is presumably needed only where a second alternator or measuring point exists. No manufacturer documents P2CC1 publicly; Deutz, for example, lists only circuit A codes (P063A, P063C, P063D) for its alternator. Range, low and high: P2CC2 to P2CC4.
What you may notice
  • Battery or charging warning lamp on
  • Charging voltage regulated to a fixed or unsuitable value
Likely causes
  • LikelySense wire B, its fuse or connector open or corroded
  • PossibleSecond alternator or its regulator faulty
  • RareSense input in the engine control module faulty
