Hybrid/EV Battery Temperature Sensor E Circuit Range/Performance

28 brands affected · Generic SAE J2012 description.

Key terms: Control module: a small computer that runs one part of the car · SAE J2012: the standard generic code list · Powertrain: engine, transmission and emissions

Safety: This code relates to the battery temperature. A hot or poorly cooled battery can lose power, and a damaged battery carries a fire risk.

1What it means in plain English

The engine or powertrain control system has stored a fault that does not have specific guidance in this database yet.

2Common causes

Sensor or actuator fault
Wiring or connector fault
Vacuum or intake leak
Fuel or ignition problem
Control module fault
