VCBATT_a371 — Failure To Precharge Risk

Full alert identifier: VCBATT_a371_failureToPrechargeRisk

Alert description

Based on historical data, the vehicle controller determines there is a high probability the low voltage (LV) battery will not successfully precharge the high voltage (HV) bus.

Potential impact

The high voltage electrical system will remain on to support vehicle functions including drive (HV contactors will remain closed), causing the vehicle show greater range loss over time than expected.

Set condition

Any of the following alerts: 4 instances of LVVoltageDropOnHighLoadCurrent; one instance of shortedCell; one instance of deadLVMinimalAhDischarged; one instance of resistanceEstimationHardFailure; one instance of dcrMilliOhmsAboveThreshold; one instance of prechargeLVLoadReduction.

Clear condition

LV battery replacement should clear this alert.
