An open circuit fault occurs when the actual value is less than the pre-defined limit. Check system cables, connectors, coils and configurations. Re-seat all coil connectors. The mask of all failed channels indicates additional channels with the same fault - convert the hex number to a bitmap to decipher the mask, with channel 1 indicated by the least significant bit and channel 16 indicated by the most significant bit. For example, a mask of 0x3c converts to 0011 1100, meaning channels 3, 4, 5, and 6 all experienced the same failure. The key at the bottom of the error message shows the MC driver bias channels provided by the Driver Module used with each mult
