Circuit/System Description
Voltage is supplied to the electronic suspension control (ESC) module by the battery positive (B+) voltage circuit. The ESC module monitors the supplied voltage to determine if it is within a valid operating range. Damage to components, and incorrect data may occur if the voltage is out of range. The ESC module disables all outputs, and sets DTC C0895 00, if high or low battery voltage is detected.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The ignition is ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
Battery voltage is outside the normal range of 9.0-15.5 volts.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The ESC module disables all functionality.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC will clear when the ESC module receives battery voltage in the normal range of 9-15.5 volts. |
| • | A history DTC will clear if the condition does not return after 50 consecutive ignition cycles. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | A high or low voltage value in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system. |
| • | Overcharging with a battery charger or jump starting can cause this DTC to set. |
| • | Inspect ground connection G400. Verify that it is clean and tight. |

Circuit/System Verification
- Engine running, accessories OFF, measure and record the battery voltage at the battery terminals. The voltage should be between 12.6 and 15.0 volts.
- Observe the scan tool ESC Battery Voltage Signal parameter. The reading should be between 12.6 and 15.0 volts.
| ⇒ | If not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test . |
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the ESC module.
- Ignition OFF and scan tool disconnected, open and close the driver door, and wait 1 minute. Test for less than 5 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 47 and ground.
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 32 and ground.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the ESC module.
| ⇒ | 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 a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
