VCLEFT_a387_shortedCellInstc

The low voltage (LV) battery has failed a test that checks for shorted battery cells. May indicate the LV battery has a shorted cell and is unable to fully support the LV electrical system. Note: A single failure of this test does not reliably indicate a condition affecting LV battery function. Only after 5 failed tests will the vehicle controller set a separate alert indicating the LV battery has a shorted cell.

Live incidence rate

<0.01% (Extremely rare)

Vehicle messages

Impact

The LV battery may have at least one shorted cell, which could prevent it from adequately supporting the vehicle's electrical systems.

Description

The low voltage (LV) battery has failed a test that checks for shorted battery cells. May indicate the LV battery has a shorted cell and is unable to fully support the LV electrical system. Note: A single failure of this test does not reliably indicate a condition affecting LV battery function. Only after 5 failed tests will the vehicle controller set a separate alert indicating the LV battery has a shorted cell.

Cause

The LV battery has failed a test checking for a shorted battery cell. Alert log signal data should provide more information, including the load current, battery temperature, and voltage dip measured during testing.

Clear condition

Clears automatically before the next shorted cell test is run, or after vehicle controller resets / wakes from sleep.
