P0626Powertrain
Generator field terminal — high signal
Where to start
A high signal in the field circuit. Usually a break or a corroded connector rather than the alternator. Checked before removing anything.
A code is not a diagnosis. It says which check failed, not which part to replace. Clearing it without repair only means the car will report it again in a few trips.

How the app helps
CarScan reads this code from your car through an OBD-II adapter, shows whether it is active now or only stored, names the module that reported it, and puts it into a plain-text report for your mechanic.
