Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR)
The AVR is responsible for regulating the DC excitation current sent to the rotor. If the AVR fails, it cannot maintain the required 120/240VAC output, causing a voltage sag that the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) misinterprets as an excessive load, resulting in a protective shutdown and a flashing overload LED.

CONF
Main Control Module
The Control Module serves as the brain of the EFI system and monitors the current transformers. An internal logic failure or a corrupted firmware state can cause the module to falsely detect current spikes or phase imbalances, locking the unit into a flashing overload error state regardless of actual electrical demand.

CONF
Current Transformer (CT) Sensor
The CT sensor measures the magnetic field around the output leads to calculate amperage. If the sensor's windings are compromised or the connector has high resistance, it will send an incorrect millivolt signal to the controller, simulating an over-current event that triggers the overload flash.
