B012BDC/AC Converter A High Voltage Power Outlet "E" Circuit/Open
- Generic OBD-II code · Body
- How the car detects it
- B012B is the last outlet circuit code, for outlet E. Many trucks combine bed sockets with one in the cabin. Ford's SSM 49562 for the 2021 F-150 with the 7.2 kW system notes that a message about a tripped bed-panel breaker could really come from the breaker above the 120 V outlet in the instrument panel, or from that outlet's connector not being fully plugged in; an over-the-air update corrected the wording. Ford's patent US11043801B2 also lets each socket be switched on its own from the screen or a button. Which outlet E is remains unpublished, and B012B appears in no manufacturer document. Before blaming the converter, check breaker, connector and socket of the outlet concerned.
