Anyone know what this is?
It's taped to the battery cable, but more importantly, it's hooked to the "ind ctrl", pin 15, green PCM terminal.
If I dont need the module, where should that wire connect in a standalone harness?

Isn't that the thing that helps calculate charge / load on the battery? How it's wired I'm not sure I never messed with an 05+ engine / harness.

The way I understand, you only need it if you are using the factory alternator controlled by the PCM.

OK, "search is" my friend. It's a Generator Battery Control Module. But I have not found out if it will do anything without the serial data hooked up to the instrument or BCM. Anyone?

ttt,
I wired it into the charging circuit. Looks like the alternator defaults to 13.8 V even if the thing fails, so guessing it wont hurt.
Any other input on this?
