U3515 High Voltage System Interlock Circuit C
Generic fault on HVIL loop C. See U3511 for general HVIL behavior. A communication loss with this module breaks any function relying on its data — diagnostic tools may show 'no response' and dependent modules can fall into limp mode.
Is it safe to drive with U3515?
The car may go into limp mode (reduced power). Get it diagnosed before a long trip.
Common causes
- Most likelyHV connector not fully mated
- Less likelyGateway module routing CAN messages incorrectly
- Less likelyCAN terminating resistor (120 Ω) drifted out of spec
Symptoms
- Multiple warning lights may illuminate
- Affected modules may go into limp mode or shut down
- Specific functions inoperative depending on module
- Diagnostic tools may show communication faults
