CEL and Code 46 on a 97 TJ
Howdee Jeep brains trust,
Today my CEL lit up, voltmeter on the dash maxed out and upon further inspection, discovered Code 46 was the cause -
Charging System Voltage Too High - Battery voltage sense input above target charging during engine operation.
Apart from CEL and voltmeter, there was no other indication that anything was wrong.
I immediately pulled over, turned off the engine and restarted it.
After restarting, the Jeep ran normally... until the same thing happened again.
This happened 5 or 6 times in a 52km drive this morning.
I then cleared the code and reset the PCM.
Same thing happened once more - pulled over, turned off engine, restarted and good to go.
Spent the rest of the day 4wding and the same 52km trip home and it hasn't happened again.
Jeep seems OK now, but does anyone know what would cause this?
