P0CB5
Hybrid/EV Battery Temperature Sensor O Circuit High
What it means
P0CB5 means Hybrid/EV Battery Temperature Sensor O Circuit High.
Where it lives
For P0CB5, the circuit described runs through the sensor. The description of P0CB5 reports a fault at the sensor.
Check these first
- An open in the sensor O signal or return
- A short to voltage on the sensor O wire
- A disconnected sensor O connector
- High resistance at the sensor O ground
- A battery management system fault raising the reading
What to do next
- Read hybrid battery temperature sensor O on a scan tool
- Inspect the sensor O connector and wiring
- Test the sensor O circuit for an open and a short to voltage
- Measure the sensor O ground resistance
- Replace sensor O if the reading stays high
- Clear the code and retest
