Diagnosis & fix steps

Power Supply Lost with Ignition On. LOGIC: The ECM detected a loss of battery power while the "Key Switch" was still in the ON position. ACTION: 1. Check main 30A fuses at the battery. 2. Check the ECM power relay. 3. Inspect main battery ground at the frame. FIX: Tighten battery terminals; replace corroded fuses; replace ECM Power Relay.

Red Seal field insights

This is often caused by a "jiggling" fuse or a loose ground. If the code is intermittent, check the "Clean Machine Ground" wire that goes directly to the battery negative post.
