VCBATT_a407 — Dcr Milli Ohms Above Threshold

Full alert identifier: VCBATT_a407_dcrMilliOhmsAboveThreshold

Alert description

The low voltage (LV) battery internal resistance is too high, based on a direct current internal resistance (DCR) calculation. Indicates LV battery replacement is necessary.

Potential impact

The LV battery may be unable to support precharge loads / precharge the high voltage (HV) bus, and requires replacement.

Set condition

Direct current internal resistance (DCR) calculation indicates the LV battery internal resistance exceeds expected threshold (normal operating range).

Clear condition

The vehicle controller loses all electrical power from the LV battery and power conversion system (PCS), as would happen during LV battery replacement.
