Default Charging Problem

Hi, one item to check is the connections to the PCM, for cleanliness and in properly. You should disconnect the battery when removing and replacing these connectors. It is located in the pass side wheelwell, and can be accessed by removing the filler panel. Of course all other connections need to be clean and tight also, both sides of the battery, and starter, the alt connections including the smart wire. The wires from the starter to the alt go through 2 fusible links, check them for continuity.
Good Luck.

has anyone?? ever had these codes? Its obvious that the pcm isnt allowing the alternator to charge. I have had high voltage come across
in the past few months also. Has anyone had experience with this same symptom? And what have you done to correct?
