Battery voltage, low


Fault symptom

ABS (ANTI LOCK) warning lamp on, no ABS function.

Condition

Battery voltage < about 9 V for more than 60 seconds.

Diagnostic help

A reading of the control module's power supply (+30 circuit) can be obtained with the ISAT scan tool.


- Select ”READ VALUES”.

- - Select ”BATTERY VOLTAGE”.


The current battery voltage will be displayed. If the +15 circuit is not connected to the control module, perhaps because fuse 19 has blown, no communication will be established.

Diagnostic procedure

1 Check the fuses


Check that fuse 19 is intact.

Check that current is supplied to fuse 19.


Connect the test lamp to fuse 19 and a good grounding point.

- Take voltage readings on the control module's connector:

pin 1 to battery positive (B+) <0.5

pin 2 to battery positive (B+) <0.5

pin 3 to battery negative (B-) <0.1 V


Are all voltage readings OK?

yes

Continue with point 3.
