P0B97
Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage Sense S Circuit Low
What it means
P0B97 means Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage Sense S Circuit Low.
Check these first
- An S circuit tap reading below the surrounding cell voltages
- High resistance in the S sense lead
- A corroded pin in the S circuit connector
- A weak cell at the S voltage tap
- A sense module input fault on the S channel
What to do next
- Read the S circuit voltage on a scan tool
- Compare the S tap reading to its neighbors
- Inspect the S sense lead and connector for corrosion
- Measure resistance through the S circuit
- Replace the sense module if the S channel reads low
- Clear the code and retest
