Battery Charger Hybrid/EV Battery Output Voltage Sensor Circuit
This code is in our catalogue but has not yet been through editorial review, so the guidance below is limited to what our structured data supports. We publish deeper diagnostic content only after a code has been reviewed — here is why.
The ECM detects a circuit fault on the battery charger hybrid/ev battery output voltage sensor circuit. Reading cannot be used reliably for control.
A trouble code records what a control module measured. It does not identify which part failed. Test before replacing anything.
