P16E2 PGM-FI-ACG LIN Communication Error
Is DTC P16E2 indicated?
YES
The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
NO
Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the alternator and the PCM. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot.?

Determine possible failure area (LIN(BATT SENSOR)/LIN circuit shorted, others)
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
?2.
Disconnect the following connector.
Alternator 1P connector
?3.
Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition
Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
Alternator 1P connector: disconnected
Test point 1
Alternator 1P connector No. 1
Test point 2
Body ground
Is there continuity?
YES
Go to step 4.
NO
Go to step 5.

Shorted wire check (LIN(BATT SENSOR)/LIN line):
Shorted wire check (LIN(BATT SENSOR)/LIN line)
?1.
Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.
?2.
Continue to check for continuity between the alternator 1P connector terminal and body ground, while disconnecting these connectors, one at a time:
12 volt battery sensor 2P connector
PCM connector B (51P)
Does continuity go away when one of the above connectors is disconnected?
YES
The LIN(BATT SENSOR)/LIN wire is OK. Replace the part that caused an open when it was disconnected.?
NO
Repair a short in the LIN(BATT SENSOR)/LIN wire between the 12 volt battery sensor, the alternator, and the PCM (B40).?
5.
Determine possible failure area (alternator, others):
Determine possible failure area (alternator, others)
The LIN wire is OK. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM, then recheck. If DTC P16E2 goes away and the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If DTC P16E2 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM.?
NO
Repair an open in the LIN wire between the alternator and the PCM (B40).?

Open wire check (LIN line):
Open wire check (LIN line)
?1.
Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.
?2.
Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.
