When it detects a heavy load, it adjusts the ignition timing and idle motor to prevent your alternator from stalling your engine, similar to the power steering pressure sensor and the AC idle-up function.

From experience, there can be other problems in the charging system that will cause the ELD code, such as bad wiring.

Did you do anything recently?

yes
