OBD-II Trouble Code Description for P0621 Fiat
Generator Lamp/L Terminal Circuit
What does this mean?
OBD2 Code P0621 Fiat definition:
The Engine Control Module (ECM) or Powertrain Control Module (PCM) uses the generator turn on signal circuit to control the load of the generator on the engine. A high side driver in the ECM/PCM applies a voltage to the voltage regulator. This signals the voltage regulator to turn the field circuit ON and OFF. The ECM/PCM monitors the state of the generator turn on signal circuit. The ECM/PCM should detect low voltage on generator turn on signal circuit when the ignition is ON and the engine is OFF, or when the charging system malfunctions. With the engine running, the ECM/PCM should detect high voltage on the generator turn on signal circuit. The ECM/PCM performs Ignition ON and RUN tests to determine the status of the generator turn on signal circuit.
Symptoms
Possible sumptoms of OBD code P0621 Fiat
– Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
Causes
Possible causes of OBD code P0621 Fiat
– Generator circuit – Generator circuit short to fround – Generator circuit open/high Resistance – Generator circuit short to voltage – Bad generator/alternator – Faulty ECM/PCM The Error code is generally activated on detection of the following conditions: – During the Ignition ON test, the ECM/PCM detects high voltage on the generator turn on signal circuit for 5 seconds. – During the RUN test, the ECM/PCM detects low voltage on the generator turn on signal circuit for 15 seconds.
Possible Solutions
– Replaced alternator/generator

Note:
1. The list of automotive Makes at the right edge of the screen. The currently selected ODB-ii codes is for the Fiat makes.
2. Look up the other OBD II Trouble Codes, please use the search box. Enter the 5 character trouble codes in the search box and submit the search.
3. Don’t assume a particular OBD-II code means the same for other auto manufacturers as there are many makes specific codes in use.
4. If your OBD-II trouble codes are for a different car, select that vehicle series before searching for the diagnostic codes because not all OBD2 codes used by one manufacture are used by the other makes.
