Fault Type(s):
1 =  Driver current exceeded 
hardware limits.
2 = Driver current exceeded 
congured over-current limits.
3 =  Driver commanded PWM 
active, using diagnostic pulses. 
Voltage measured high, should 
be low. Typically caused by 
driver failure, or driver pin 
short to high.
4 =  Driver commanded PWM 
active, using diagnostic 
pulses. Voltage measured 
low, should be high. Either 
open circuit, or driver pin 
short to ground.
5 =  Driver commanded PWM is 
0, and voltage measured low 
(should be high). Either open 
circuit, or driver pin short  
to ground.
7 =  Driver undercurrent - 
Monitored current is below 
undercurrent threshold.
Fault types 1-2 are  
always checked.
Fault types 3-5 are only checked 
if driver checks are enabled.
1. Open or short on driver load.
2. Dirty connector pins at controller 
or contactor coil.
3. Bad connector crimps or  
faulty wiring.
4. Driver overcurrent, as set by the 
Driver 6 Overcurrent parameter.
Note: Driver 6 is a digital (On/Off) 1 
Amp output.
Set: Driver 6 is either open or 
shorted, or Driver 6 exceeded 
its overcurrent setting.
Clear: Correct the open or short, 
and then Reset Controller.
