U352FHigh Voltage System Interlock Circuit J Low

  • Generic OBD-II code · Network
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
U352F means loop J reads below its lower threshold, the picture an interrupted loop gives. In high-voltage plugs the interlock pins are shorter than the power pins, so they part first when the plug is withdrawn. A TE Connectivity product manager puts the resulting lead at just one to three milliseconds for a plug pulled quickly, while switching the whole system off can take close to a second, and adds that a closed loop does not prove full mating. A Hyundai and Kia connector patent names the same weakness of fast separation. A plug in loop J that has been pulled back slightly, or a dropped interlock pin, is thus the first suspect. No maker lists U352F; the contactors stay open.
What you may notice
  • High-voltage system switches off and stays off
  • No ready mode after work near high-voltage plugs
  • Charging not possible
Likely causes
  • LikelyHigh-voltage plug in loop J partly withdrawn, interlock pins already apart
  • PossibleInterlock pin in loop J pushed back in its cavity
  • PossibleLoop J wire chafed through to ground
