Circuit | Short to Ground | Open/High Resistance | Short to Voltage | Signal Performance |
---|---|---|---|---|
B+ | C0895 | C0895 | -- | -- |
Ground | -- | C0895 | -- | -- |
Voltage is supplied to the electronic suspension control (ESC) module in the battery positive voltage circuit. The ESC module monitors the supplied voltage to determine if it is within a valid operating range.
Ignition is ON.
The DTC is set when the system voltage is outside the normal range of 9-15.5 V.
Disable All Functionality
The DTC is saved as history when the ESC module no longer sees system voltage outside the normal range of 9-15.5 V. The DTC will clear if the fault does not return after 50 consecutive ignition cycles.
• | A low voltage DTC in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system. |
• | DTC C0895 may set when the vehicle is placed on a battery charger, on fast charge, for a long period of time. It may also be set by an intermittent charging system malfunction |

Engine running, measure and record the voltage at the battery terminals. Verify that the battery voltage is 12.6-15.5 V.
⇒ | If the battery voltage is not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for an open/high resistance. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
