P0B6A - OBD Trouble Code

<<See All OBD Codes

See the error code P0B6A? Don’t know what to do? Well, all you need is the Parts Avatar guide to help you get through it. It should be noted that the high voltage battery pack contains a number of mini-batteries that are all connected together. The high voltage control module stores the code P0B6A, whenever the high voltage control module identifies a malfunction in more than one battery packs that form the high voltage battery assembly.

One can observe that a total number of 288 cells can be found in the hybrid/electric vehicle battery pack. Also, groups of three cells are fused all together in uniformity. The hybrid/EV battery pack assembly has a total of 96 cell groups in it. All these cell groups are electrically linked in-series. It should be noted that each and every individual cell group is evaluated at 3.7 V and for a nominal system voltage of 355 V direct current. These battery cells present are further noted to be sorted together into three sections. The battery section one is made up by the first 90 cells/30 cell groups found. Consisting of batteries from 67 to 96, this section is located close to the cowl. Behind the section one, one can locate the battery section two. It is made up of 72 cells/24 cell groups and contains a number of batteries from 43 to 66. The section number three is the transverse battery section that contains of the rest of the remaining 126 cells/42 cell groups. also, it consists of batteries ranging from 1 to 42. The three battery sections are equipped with components that can be serviced individually.

Making use of the four hybrid/EV battery interface control modules, the battery energy control module regulates the voltage of the 96 battery cell groups. To each and every individual cell group, there are voltage sense circuits linked. These sense circuits cease at a connector that can be found in the top of the battery section. Also found in the top surface of the battery section, a serviceable auxiliary battery wiring harness connects this connector to a hybrid/EV battery interface control module. Further the voltage reading is decoded and transmitted to the battery energy control module through the battery control harness by the hybrid/EV battery interface control module. In the battery sections one and two, one can find one hybrid/EV battery interface control module located, and also in the battery section three there are two hybrid/EV battery interface control modules connected with the battery. The components that are serviceable include the hybrid/EV battery interface control module, battery energy control module wiring harness, auxiliary battery wiring harness, and battery energy control module. Whenever an error is present, it is notified by the battery energy control module. Through serial data, the diagnostics and the system status are communicated battery energy control module to hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2. The hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2 is considered to be the main hub controlling all the diagnostic trouble code information.

What causes this problem with the Hybrid Battery Voltage Sense "J" Circuit Low?

• A malfunctioning hybrid/electric vehicle battery pack
• A damaged hybrid/electric vehicle battery interface control module
• Rise in the fuel consumption

Common Symptoms

•  A rise in the fuel consumption

We have listed out some ways which would help you to correct the occurrence of OBD Code P0B6A. They are mentioned here as follows:

• The electrical components that are identified as defective, burnt or disconnected should be replaced or repaired as per the requirements. Then the system should be test driven and reset. Also, If no components that are burnt, defective or shorted wiring or loose connectors are found then the exhaust gas temperature/pressure (or heated oxygen) sensor connector should be disconnected and then the exhaust gas temperature sensor should be disconnected.
• Also, it should be noted that if during cooling the resistance level fails to decrease with heat and increase as it cools, the sensor should be changed. Next, if everything turns out to be working in order, the key should be turned to the "ON" position and the presence of a voltage (and a ground signal) should be tested at the exhaust gas temperature/pressure (or heated oxygen) sensor electrical connector.
• A malfunctioning powertrain control module (or other related controller) should be suspected if the fuel shutoff switch and all system circuitry turns out to work according to the manufacturer’ specifications.
• There is no need to get strained if your OBD code is still flashing up as we are here at your service. Have a look at our superior variety of hybrid battery, hybrid battery pack, hybrid battery voltage sensor, battery cable, battery assembly, battery control module, powertrain control module, battery connection, exhaust leak, battery smart unit and many more. Now all your problems would vanish within no time.

Here are some steps which you should follow in order to diagnose this fault code:

A standard OBD-II trouble code scanner should be used to diagnose this trouble code P0B6A. The scanner will be used to check and view the freeze frame data and assess the code by a certified technician. The technician should also check for additional trouble codes stored. After the repairs have been performed, the codes should be retested and the vehicle should be restarted to see if the code pertains. If the code disappears it could likely be due to a faulty diagnose or may represent an intermittent issue.

Common mistakes when diagnosing the P0B6A Code

Here are a few common mistakes that should be avoided while diagnosing the error code P0B6A:

• A possible failure in the high voltage battery connection
• A malfunctioning high voltage battery assembly
• Issues with the wiring
