Circuit  | Short to Ground  | Open/High Resistance  | Short to Voltage  | Signal Performance  | 
|---|---|---|---|---|
B+  | B1325 03, B1325 4A  | B1325 03, B1325 4A  | --  | --  | 
Ground  | --  | B1325 03, B1325 4A  | --  | --  | 
The following control modules monitor the battery voltage through the battery positive (B+) voltage circuits:
| • | Head-up display (HUD) | 
| • | Instrument panel cluster (IPC) | 
| • | Passenger presence system (PPS) | 
| • | Radio | 
| • | Ultrasonic parking aid (UPA) | 
If any of the control modules listed detect that the battery voltage is out of range, it will set DTC B1325.
| • | The battery voltage supplied to the control module is in the range of 7-26 volts. | 
| • | The ignition is ON. | 
The control module detects that the system voltage is less than 9 volts for 5 seconds.
The control module detects that the system voltage is greater than 18 volts for 5 seconds.
The HUD or IPC failed the power on checksum test, either due to low voltage or corrupted memory.
| • | The control module immediately disables all outputs when an out of range voltage condition has been detected, with the exception of serial data, which is disabled after a 3 minute delay. | 
| • | The setting of other DTCs is inhibited. | 
| • | The charge indicator turns ON. | 
| • | The driver information center (DIC) displays the SERVICE BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM message. | 
The DTC passes when the malfunction is no longer present.
| • | A high or low voltage value in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system. | 
| • | Overcharging with a battery charger or jump starting can cause this DTC to set. |

Charging System Description and Operation
| ⇒ | If not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test . | 
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. | 
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. | 
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. | 
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
