DTC P0ABF-00: Hybrid/EV Battery Current Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance [11/2021 - ]: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2025 Lexus NX 350h, 2024 Lexus NX 350h, 2023 Lexus NX 350h, and 2022 Lexus NX 350h. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

A battery current sensor, which is mounted on the positive cable side of each HV battery junction block assembly, detects the current flowing to or from the battery pack. The battery current sensor sends a voltage, which varies between 0 and 5 V in proportion to the amperage, to the IB0 terminal of the battery ECU assembly. Similarly, it sends a voltage, which varies between 0 and 5 V in inverse proportion to the amperage, to the IB1 terminal of the battery ECU assembly. When the voltage at the IB0 terminal is below 2.8 V and the voltage at the IB1 terminal is above 2.2 V, this indicates that the HV battery is being discharged. Additionally, Meanwhile, when the voltage at of the IB0 terminal is above 2.8 V and the voltage at of the IB1 terminal is below 2.2 V, this indicates that the HV battery is being charged. The battery ECU assembly sends the signals from its IB0 and IB1 terminals to the hybrid vehicle control ECU. The hybrid vehicle control ECU determines the charging and discharging amperage of the HV battery based on the received signals and calculates the SOC of the HV battery using the cumulative amperage value.
