The P0AEB fault code refers to a high circuit issue detected in the Hybrid Battery Temperature Sensor 'D'. This sensor plays a crucial role in monitoring the temperature of the hybrid battery pack, ensuring it operates within safe limits. When the circuit reports a high value, it indicates that the sensor may be malfunctioning or that there is an issue with the wiring or connections to the sensor.

What are the symptoms of the P0AEB code?

Symptoms associated with the P0AEB code may include:

• Warning lights illuminated on the dashboard (usually the Check Engine or battery light).
• Decreased fuel efficiency or performance in hybrid operation.
• Inconsistent power delivery from the hybrid battery.
• Possible overheating of the hybrid battery during use.

What causes the P0AEB code?

Common causes of the P0AEB fault code include:

• Faulty Hybrid Battery Temperature Sensor 'D'.
• Damaged wiring or poor connections in the sensor circuit.
• A short circuit in the battery management system.
• Overheating battery conditions due to inadequate cooling.

How to fix P0AEB?

To resolve the P0AEB fault code, follow these recommended steps:

1. Inspect the wiring and connectors of the Hybrid Battery Temperature Sensor 'D' for any damage or corrosion.
2. Test the sensor for proper operation with a multimeter.
3. Replace the Hybrid Battery Temperature Sensor 'D' if it is found to be faulty.
4. Clear the code and perform a test drive to monitor if the issue returns.
5. If the problem persists, further diagnostic of the battery management system may be needed.
