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

  1. Read the S circuit voltage on a scan tool
  2. Compare the S tap reading to its neighbors
  3. Inspect the S sense lead and connector for corrosion
  4. Measure resistance through the S circuit
  5. Replace the sense module if the S channel reads low
  6. Clear the code and retest
