C055AABS Pump Motor Supply Voltage Circuit A High

  • Generic OBD-II code · Chassis
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
Supply voltage A of the ABS pump motor is above its upper limit. The motor draws heavy current, so overvoltage stresses motor, relay or semiconductor switch; typical causes are a faulty alternator regulator, a jump-start or charger at too high a voltage, or a measuring fault in the module. No maker documents C055A publicly. Mitsubishi shows comparable limits on the 2023 Outlander PHEV: the motor feed is specified at 10–16 V, and the brake unit stores C1056-17 (generic C0565, ABS module system voltage high) once its ignition supply reaches at least 16 V, with a detection delay of at most 1 s, suspending ABS, ASC and related functions. Circuit B has its own codes (C05A5 ff.). Measure the charging voltage first.
What you may notice
