DTC P2504 | Charging system voltage high
--- | ---
DETECTION CONDITION | • The PCM determines that the generator output voltage is more than 18.5 V or battery voltage is more than 16.0 V while the engine running.
POSSIBLE CAUSE | • Short to power supply in wiring harness between generator connector terminal D and PCM connector terminal 2AN • Generator malfunction • PCM and/or generator are poorly connected.

Diagnostic procedure

STEP | INSPECTION | ACTION
--- | --- | ---
1 | VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED • Has FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded? | Yes | Go to the next step.
No | Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2 | VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY • Verify related service repair information availability. • Is any related repair information available? | Yes | Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information. • If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No | Go to the next step.
3 | INSPECT GENERATOR CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION • Turn the ignition switch off. • Disconnect the generator connector. • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Repair or replace the terminal, then go to Step 7.
No | Go to the next step.
4 | INSPECT GENERATOR CONTROL TERMINAL FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY • Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (Engine off). • Measure the voltage between generator terminal D (wiring harness-side) and body GND. • Is the voltage B+? | Yes | Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to power supply, then go to Step 7.
No | Go to the next step.
5 | INSPECT GENERATOR • Inspect the generator. (See GENERATOR INSPECTION [ZJ, Z6].) • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Replace the generator, then go to Step 7. (See GENERATOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZJ, Z6].)
No | Go to the next step.
6 | INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION • Turn the ignition switch off. • Disconnect the PCM connector. • Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). • Is there any malfunction? | Yes | Repair or replace the terminal, then go to next step.
No | Go to the next step.
7 | VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P2504 COMPLETED • Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors. • Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the WDS or equivalent. • Start the engine. • Is same DTC present? | Yes | Replace the PCM, then go to the next step. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [ZJ, Z6].)
No | Go to the next step.
8 | VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE • Perform the "AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE". (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE [ZJ, Z6].) • Are any DTCs present? | Yes | Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE [ZJ, Z6].)
No | DTC troubleshooting completed.
