Circuit/System Description

The following module/sensors monitor the system voltage circuit to determine if the voltage is within the normal operating range:

    •  Handbrake control module
    •  Power steering control module
    •  Electronic brake control module
    •  Suspension control module
    •  Steering wheel angle sensor
    •  Multi-axis acceleration sensor

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition is ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

C0800 03

The module/sensor detects that the system voltage is less than 9.2 V for 7 seconds.

C0800 07

The module/sensor detects that the system voltage is greater than 16 V for 7 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

A DIC message and/or a warning indicator may be displayed.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The system voltage returns to normal operating range.

Diagnostic Aids

    •  A high or low voltage DTC set in multiple module/sensors indicates a concern in the charging system.
    •  A possible cause of this DTC could be overcharging with a battery charger or jump starting.

Circuit/System Verification

  1. Engine running, measure and record the voltage at the C1 battery terminals.
  2. Verify that the battery voltage is 12.6-15.0 V.
  3. ⇒ If the battery voltage is not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test .
  4. Observe the scan tool of the appropriate module Battery Positive parameter. Verify that the scan tool displays a value that is within 2 V of the battery terminal voltage.

Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate module/sensor.
  2. Ignition OFF, test for less than 3 Ω between the ground circuit terminals listed below and ground:
  3. •  Terminal H, K83 Handbrake control module
    •  Terminal 1 X1, K43 Power steering control module
    •  Terminal 13, K17 Electronic brake control module
    •  Terminal 18, K19 Suspension control module
    •  Terminal 19, K19 Suspension control module
    •  Terminal 6, B99 Steering wheel angle sensor
    •  Terminal 6, B119 Multi-axis acceleration sensor
    ⇒ If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  4. Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the B+ or ignition circuits listed below and ground:
  5. •  Terminal A, K83 Handbrake control module
    •  Terminal 2 X1, K43 Power steering control module
    •  Terminal 1, K17 Electronic brake control module
    •  Terminal 25, K17 Electronic brake control module
    •  Terminal 1, K19 Suspension control module
    •  Terminal 17, K19 Suspension control module
    •  Terminal 5, B99 Steering wheel angle sensor
    •  Terminal 5, B119 Multi-axis acceleration sensor
    ⇒ If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the circuit for an open/high resistance.
  6. If all circuits test normal, replace the appropriate module/sensor.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
