- CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC WARNING:
On vehicles equipped with the high voltage system, you must thoroughly read and follow all High Voltage Safety procedures. In addition, before performing any diagnostic or service procedure near a high voltage component, you must perform the High Voltage Power Down. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
Read the HIGH-VOLTAGE SAFETY PROCEDURES. Refer to HIGH VOLTAGE SAFETY PROCEDURES .
When the HIGH-VOLTAGE POWER-DOWN PROCEDURE is necessary. Refer to HIGH VOLTAGE POWER DOWN .
- With the scan tool, read Battery Pack Control Module (BPCM) DTCs and record on the repair order.
- Record the Freeze Frame Data (If available), Event Data (If available), and Environmental Data.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs.NOTE:
Most BPCM DTCs will require the EVSE to be disconnected in order to clear.
- Using the recorded data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
- With the scan tool, read BPCM DTCs.
Did the DTC return?
Yes

No
- Perform the TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure. Refer to TESTING FOR AN INTERMITTENT CONDITION and/or BPCM INTERMITTENT CONDITION .
- CHECK VEHICLE FOR COLLISION HISTORY
- Check vehicle history for collision damage.
- With the scan tool, verify that the ORC determined a collision event under the BPCM Data tab.
Has the vehicle been in a collision?
Yes
- Repair the vehicle in accordance with the Service Information. ALWAYS replace the HV Battery Packs in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY, REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION .
- Perform the BATTERY PACK CONTROL MODULE (BPCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HV VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Verify that the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) and the Hybrid Control Processor (HCP) are active on the CAN Bus before proceeding. A non-responsive HCP or ORC will set this DTC. Repair as necessary and retest.
- Once communication is established with the HCP or ORC, with the scan tool, perform the "Reset Impact Event Fault" routine in the BPCM.
- Perform the BATTERY PACK CONTROL MODULE (BPCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HV VERIFICATION TEST .
