P2E3D Battery Charger B Output Shorted
Battery charger B reports a output shorted condition. HV charging operation may be impaired. The on-board charger negotiates voltage, current and safety with the EVSE; a fault interrupts charging or limits it to AC slow-charge despite a DC fast charger being attached.
Is it safe to drive with P2E3D?
The car may go into limp mode (reduced power). Get it diagnosed before a long trip.
