The vehicle controller has disabled communications over the bus that connects to the low voltage (LV) battery after detecting a condition (or conditions) that may cause the LV battery to become overdischarged. To avoid overdischarge that could make the LV battery unrecoverable, do not restore communications until the LV system is fully supported by the Power Conversion System (PCS).

Description

The vehicle controller has disabled communications over the bus that connects to the low voltage (LV) battery after detecting a condition (or conditions) that may cause the LV battery to become overdischarged. To avoid overdischarge that could make the LV battery unrecoverable, do not restore communications until the LV system is fully supported by the Power Conversion System (PCS).
