OBD II Trouble Code P0517: Battery Temperature Sensor Circuit High

<p>The OBD-II P0517 code is a code that is seen after scanning your vehicle&rsquo;s diagnostic system. An OBD-II P0517 code means that the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;cd=1&amp;cad=rja&amp;uact=8&amp;ved=0ahUKEwjqmdPaprTRAhVX5WMKHcGwA30QFggaMAA&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FEngine_control_unit&amp;usg=AFQjCNGjwcrei787goicXYjCMXmSyYREcg&amp;sig2=FToHIt_YbLwBKz4eFBqAig&amp;bvm=bv.142059868%2Cd.cGc" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">engine control module</a>&nbsp;(ECM) has detected a high&nbsp;<a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;cd=1&amp;cad=rja&amp;uact=8&amp;ved=0ahUKEwiwo7HlprTRAhVL0mMKHSLzA_QQFggaMAA&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FVoltage&amp;usg=AFQjCNFJrt3TiJDTE24En_RRB91dD-zyXw&amp;sig2=2ZE9OLkgt4B9YvUjNVkjqQ&amp;bvm=bv.142059868%2Cd.cGc" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">voltage</a>&nbsp;reading from the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;cd=1&amp;cad=rja&amp;uact=8&amp;ved=0ahUKEwilqIf3prTRAhUM3WMKHS8xADcQFggaMAA&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FAutomotive_battery&amp;usg=AFQjCNH64BqUlbYPtKrgkWaL9L9EU-I0JA&amp;sig2=YvGRwkxzZeWFay8fdmGn_w&amp;bvm=bv.142059868%2Cd.cGc" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">battery temperature sensor circuit</a>. Generally the normal voltage reading that the ECM should be receiving should be around 5 volts.</p> <p>To read the battery temperature, a 5 volt reference signal is sent from the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&amp;rct=j&amp;q=&amp;esrc=s&amp;cd=1&amp;cad=rja&amp;uact=8&amp;ved=0ahUKEwixl8WDp7TRAhVJ_WMKHQrkByEQFggaMAA&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FPulse-code_modulation&amp;usg=AFQjCNFSPOIuENHjxusIStGoxgu2k_MgnA&amp;sig2=S0A9yOp0jqlcSCX-JkuifQ&amp;bvm=bv.142059868%2Cd.cGc" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">PCM</a>&nbsp;to the battery temperature sensor, which is grounded through the sensor return circuit. When the battery temperature increases, it decreases the sensor resistance and the ECM will receive a voltage signal that is higher. When the battery temperature decreases, the voltage signal sent to the ECM decreases.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/fiix/obd-ii-trouble-code-p0517-battery-temperature-sensor-circuit-high-243bd1df8160"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
