| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P0516 | Battery Temperature Sensor Circuit Low |
| P0517 | Battery Temperature Sensor Circuit High |
DESCRIPTION
The battery temperature sensor installed on the battery current sensor assembly detects battery temperature.
A thermistor is integrated into the battery temperature sensor, and the resistance in the battery temperature sensor changes according to the battery temperature.
The resistance of the thermistor in the battery temperature sensor decreases as the battery temperature increases. The resistance increases as the temperature decreases.
The battery temperature sensor is connected to the power management control ECU. The power management control ECU supplies 5 V from the THB terminal to the battery temperature sensor through resistor R.
The battery temperature sensor and resistor R are connected in series. This results in fluctuations in the voltage supplied from the THB terminal when the resistance changes according to the battery temperature.
The power management control ECU determines the battery temperature according to fluctuations in voltage. When the battery temperature is high, the power management control ECU determines to reduce the amount of current supplied from the generator in order to protect the battery.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0516 | Battery temperature sensor output value is less than 0.2 V for 0.5 seconds or more with the ignition switch ON (1-trip detection logic) |
|
| P0517 | Battery temperature sensor output value is more than 4.8 V for 0.5 seconds or more with the ignition switch ON (1-trip detection logic) |
