Normal Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The voltage required for correct ABS operation is between 10 and 17 volts. Voltage outside of this range causes the ABS module to set DTC B1676.

DTC B1676 (Battery Pack Voltage Out of Range) - this DTC sets in every ignition cycle if, with the ignition in the RUN position and vehicle speed greater than 6 km/h (4 mph), the battery voltage is less than 10 volts or more than 17 volts. DTCs set in the ignition cycle can only be cleared by cycling the ignition off and on once the fault has been corrected.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Fuse
- Battery condition
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- ABS module
