P2D69Battery Charging System Positive Contactor D Circuit
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- How the car detects it
- P2D69 collects electrical faults of positive charging contactor D, a fourth plus-side switch after A (P0D07), B (P2BC4) and C (P2D5B). What D connects is not public: none of the makers documents P2D69, and the NHTSA bulletin index since 2015 names neither P2D69 nor any contactor D. Under CARB a plug-in hybrid must notice charger faults that prevent or slow down charging, but does not make them switch on an idle output only for a functional check, so a rarely used path may only be checked while it is in use. A GM patent offers a check at key-on: a coil pulse too short to close a healthy contactor still shows by its current whether the contacts are already shut. Specific faults: P2D6A–P2D6F; minus side: P2D70.
