P0E9DDC/DC Converter Current Sensor B Circuit Low

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
P0E9D reports that the signal of DC/DC converter current sensor B has dropped below its valid range. Porsche documents it for the Taycan of model years 2020 to 2024 as P0E9D00, current sensor 2 of the converter with a short to ground, logged by the HV power electronics on the front axle (A49), the rear axle (A50) or both. A red warning tells the driver to stop safely because of an electrical fault, yet once the ignition has been cycled the entry is no longer active. Porsche blames a diagnostic threshold for current monitoring that was set too low and reprograms both control units, using PIWIS Tester version 43.500.000 or newer. Outside that case a real ground short or a dead sensor supply is the likely cause. The high counterpart is P0E9E.
What you may notice
  • Red warning to stop the vehicle safely
  • Fault no longer active after an ignition cycle
  • Drive power reduced or vehicle not ready to drive
Likely causes
  • LikelyCurrent monitoring threshold set too low in the software
  • PossibleSensor B signal shorted to ground
  • RareSensor supply missing inside the power electronics
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
