Circuit | Short to Ground | Open/High Resistance | Short to Voltage | Signal Performance |
---|---|---|---|---|
B+ | P0562 | P0562 | -- | -- |
Ground | -- | P0562 | -- | -- |
The engine control module (ECM) monitors the system voltage to ensure that the voltage stays within the proper range. Damage to components, and incorrect data may occur if the voltage is out of range. If the ECM detects that the system voltage is too low, then DTC P0562 sets.
The engine is running.
The ECM detects that the system voltage is less than 9 volts for 5 seconds.
DTC P0562 is a type C DTC.
DTC P0562 is a type C DTC.
A low voltage DTC in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system.

⇒ | 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. |
