U027CLost Communication With Off-Board Charger Control Module

  • Generic OBD-II code · Network
How the car detects it
DC fast charging uses a charger outside the car, so the vehicle needs a controller that negotiates with the station. Ford has a module with almost this name in its battery-electric vehicles: the off-board charger controller (OBCC) of the Mustang Mach-E, E-Transit and F-150 Lightning. Ford reprogrammed it in program 22B48 and SSM 50923 because some stations aborted DC charging, and SSM 52130 tells technicians to disregard P1A3C in the OBCC after an interrupted fast-charge session. Whether Ford stores U027C when the OBCC goes silent is not published, and no other maker documents the code. Without this module DC fast charging is not possible, while AC charging through the on-board charger normally still works. Driving is unaffected.
