DTC P0D32 (Battery Condition Monitor Module)
DTC P0D32: DC-DC Converter Over Temperature (Battery Condition Monitor Module Detected)
General Description
The DC-DC converter stops output if the DC-DC converter temperature exceeds a specified temperature for overheat protection. When the battery condition monitor module receives information of DC-DC converter stop due to overheat from the DC-DC converter for a specified duration, the battery condition monitor module detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.
