P0A84 Meaning
Cooling air flows into the intake on the right side of the rear seat and moves through an intake duct to the battery blower on the right surface of the luggage compartment. Additionally, cooling air passes through an intake duct (which connects the battery blower assembly to the upper right surface of the HV battery assembly) and flows toward the HV battery assembly.
Cooling air flows from top to bottom between the HV battery modules. Once it has cooled the modules, it is discharged from the lower right surface of the HV battery assembly.
The discharged air passes through an exhaust duct on the right surface of the luggage compartment and is vented into the cabin as well as outside the vehicle.
The battery computer uses battery temperature sensors to detect the temperature of the HV battery assembly. Based on the results of this detection, the battery ECU controls the battery fan assembly. (Thus, the battery blower assembly starts when the HV battery temperature reaches a predetermined level.)

The speed of the battery cooling fan assembly is controlled by the powertrain control module. Power to the battery cooling fan assembly is supplied when the FCTL terminal of the powertrain control module activates the battery fan relay. The powertrain control module sends control signals (SI) to the battery cooling fan assembly to achieve the fan speed corresponding to the HV battery temperature. Information about the voltage applied to the battery cooling fan assembly (VM) is sent to the powertrain control module as a monitor signal using serial communication via the

P0A8D Low 14 Volt Power Supply System Module Voltage

🔧 Code P0A8D – Low Voltage in the 14-Volt Power Supply System Module


What Does Code P0A8D Mean?

The P0A8D code indicates that the Engine Control Module (ECM) has detected insufficient voltage in the vehicle’s 14-volt power supply system.

This module is often used in hybrid or electrified vehicles, where it powers certain components at 14V (different from the traditional 12V system or the high-voltage system).


⚠️ Possible Symptoms

  • Check Engine or Service Engine Soon light illuminated,

  • No other noticeable symptoms in some cases,

  • In hybrid vehicles: possible partial deactivation of auxiliary electrical systems (air conditioning, power steering, etc.),

  • In severe cases: failure to charge the 12V battery.


🔍 Possible Causes

  • Faulty 14V Power Supply Module,

  • Open or shorted wiring in the 14V power circuit,

  • Loose, corroded, broken, or improperly connected connector,

  • Poor ground or poor contact in the circuit.


🛠️ How to Repair Code P0A8D?

Here are the recommended steps:

1. Visual Inspection

  • Locate the 14V power supply module (refer to the manufacturer’s manual),

  • Check the connectors: look for bent, corroded, or broken pins,

  • Inspect the wires for any damage, cuts, or melting.

2. Check Connections

  • Clean all relevant connectors,

  • Reconnect them securely after inspection.

3. Electrical Testing with a Multimeter (DVOM)

  • Measure the module’s output voltage (it should be close to 14 volts),

  • Check the circuit’s ground and continuity,

  • Ensure the input power is also correct.

4. Clear Codes and Test

  • Clear the code with an OBD-II scanner,

  • Start the vehicle and monitor if the code returns.

5. If the Code Returns…

  • Replace the 14-volt power supply module if confirmed faulty after testing,

  • Also check that the fuse associated with this module is not blown.


📌 Note

The P0A8D code is often specific to Toyota, Lexus, Honda hybrid vehicles, etc. On these models, the 14V module may be integrated into the inverter or the DC-DC converter. Therefore, it is sometimes necessary to consult a manufacturer’s repair manual to accurately identify the component.
