DTC P1550 Battery Current Sensor Circuit |
DTC P1551 Battery Current Sensor Circuit Low |
DTC P1552 Battery Current Sensor Circuit High |
DESCRIPTION
The battery current sensor installed on the positive battery terminal detects the amount of current supplied from the alternator.
The battery current sensor changes current to voltage and outputs that voltage. The battery current sensor changes current at the positive battery terminal to voltage and sends it to the ECM. The ECM controls the voltage of the alternator based on the signals from the battery current sensor.DTC No.

WIRING DIAGRAM
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (Click here) and initialization (Click here).
1.INSPECT BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR ASSEMBLY |
Disconnect the A48 battery current sensor connector.
Measure the resistance of the battery current sensor.
- Standard resistance:
Tester Connection
| Specified Condition
|
VC5 (3) - E2 (2)
| 3 to 6 or 0.7 to 8 kΩ
|
VC5 (3) - IB (1)
| 0.2 to 0.3 kΩ
|
IB (1) - E2 (2)
| 1.5 to 8 or 3 to 6 kΩ
|
- HINT:
- The resistance differs according to the tester type.
| REPLACE BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR ASSEMBLY |
|
|
2.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR - ECM) |
Check the harness and the connectors between the ECM and the battery current sensor.
Disconnect the A48 battery current sensor connector.
Disconnect the E59 ECM connectors.
Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
- Standard resistance (Check for open):
Tester Connection
| Specified Condition
|
IB (A48-1) - IB (E59-116)
| Below 1 Ω
|
VC5 (A48-3) - VCIB (E59-70)
| Below 1 Ω
|
E2 (A48-2) - EIB (E59-93)
| Below 1 Ω
|
- Standard resistance (Check for short):
Tester Connection
| Specified Condition
|
IB (A48-1) or IB (E59-116) - Body ground
| 10 kΩ or higher
|
VC5 (A48-3) or VCIB (E59-70) - Body ground
| 10 kΩ or higher
|
| REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
