DTC P0A08-12: DC/DC Converter Status Circuit Short to Battery; DTC P0A08-14: DC/DC Converter Status Circuit Short to Ground or Open [12/2019 - 11/2023]: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The DC/DC converter varies output voltage based on voltage change signals (VLO signal line) received from the motor generator control ECU.
If the vehicle is being driven with an inoperative DC/DC converter, the voltage of the auxiliary battery will drop, which will prevent the continued operation of the vehicle. Therefore, the motor generator control ECU monitors the operation of the DC/DC converter and alerts the driver if it detects a malfunction.
