P2D7ECharging Start Switch Circuit
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- How the car detects it
- P2D7E is the umbrella circuit code for a charging start switch, the control with which a person begins a charging session by hand, for example to override a charging timer. It is set when the start switch line delivers no usable signal; the split into high, low, performance and intermittent follows in P2D7F to P2D82. No manufacturer documents P2D7E publicly. Patents show the part: Honda's early electric vehicle charger began charging only after its charge start switch was turned on, and Toyota's wireless charging system lets a passenger in the car or a person on the ground start charging with such a switch. CARB treats monitored hybrid parts as inputs that must be tested for circuit faults. Charging by button fails, while plug-in or timer charging may still work.
