The control modules on this vehicle monitor the battery voltage on the battery positive (B+) voltage circuits. This vehicle has multiple modules that will set the DTC. For more information on which modules, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .
• | The battery voltage supplied to the control module is in the range of 7-26 volts. |
• | The ignition is ON. |
The control module detects that the system voltage is less than 9 volts for 5 seconds.
The control module detects that the system voltage is greater than 18 volts for 5 seconds.
• | The control module immediately disables all outputs when an out of range voltage condition has been detected, with the exception of GMLAN and the run/crank relay, which 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 can cause this DTC to set. |

Charging System Description and Operation
⇒ | If 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 a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
