What is code 50?

My Scanmaster is displaying code 50. I looked it up on the list of codes on Fred's Scanmaster write-up but didn't see it. Anyone know?

50 System voltage low You thumpin your stero while checkin? Or your battery / alt. may be getting weak. Did it trip a light or shows when you scan?

Thanks for the reply. I slung my belt off and it drained the battery significantly. When I got the belt back on, the car cranked up fine and the battery voltage was around 13 on the Scanmaster.

I did check it while the battery was low. Should it still flash 50?

Once you have your power problem solved, reset the computer. The DTC should then be gone.

That crossed my mind right before I re-checked this thread. Thanks
