Circuit | Short to Ground | Open/High Resistance | Short to Voltage | Signal Performance |
---|---|---|---|---|
B+ | B1325 03, B1325 4A | B1325 03, B1325 4A | -- | -- |
Ground Circuit | -- | B1325 03, B1325 4A | -- | -- |
The following control modules monitor the system voltage through the battery positive (B+) voltage circuits:
• | Instrument panel cluster (IPC) |
• | Passenger presence system (PPS) |
• | Radio |
If any of the control modules listed detect that the battery voltage is out of range, it will set DTC B1325.
• | The voltages supplied to the control modules are in the range of 7-26 volts. |
• | The ignition is ON. |
The control module detects a system voltage below 9 volts for 5 seconds.
The control module detects a system voltage above 18 volts for 5 seconds
The instrument panel cluster (IPC) failed the power on checksum test, either due to low voltage or corrupted memory
• | The control module immediately disables all outputs when an out of range voltage condition has been detected, with the exception of serial data and Run/Crank relay that are disabled after a 3 minute delay. |
• | The setting of other DTCs is inhibited. |
The DTC passes when the malfunction is no longer present.
• | 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. |

⇒ | If the battery voltage is not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test |
• | Terminal 5 (IPC) |
• | Terminal 5 (PPS) |
• | Terminal 8 X1 Radio |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
• | Terminal 10-20 (IPC) |
• | Terminal 1 (PPS) |
• | Terminal 1 X1 Radio |
⇒ | If the test lamp did not illuminate , test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
