HCC 001873.04 (HCC 1873.04)

Code: 001873.04

Shortcode: 1873.04

Description:

This error code is triggered when the rear hitch position sensor voltage is out of range low, specifically below 0.25 volts. This can be caused by a defective sensor, poor wiring, or an issue within the control unit.

Reaction:

The HCC function is degraded when this error code is active.

Recommendations:

  • Check Wiring and Connections:
    • Inspect the wiring and connectors associated with the rear hitch position sensor for any damage, loose connections, or corrosion.
  • Test the Sensor:
    • Measure the sensor’s output voltage to ensure it is within the specified range.
  • Calibrate the Sensor:
    • Perform a proper calibration of the rear hitch position sensor according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Replace Faulty Components:
    • Replace the sensor or any faulty wiring if necessary.
  • Consult Technical Support:
    • If the problem continues, contact technical support for further diagnostics and troubleshooting.

Note:

Regular inspections and calibrations are essential to maintaining the proper operation of the rear hitch position sensor and preventing low voltage issues.
