U0112

What it means

The Battery Energy Control Module "B" has stopped transmitting on the vehicle data bus, so other control units no longer receive its messages. The second battery-energy controller is silent, limiting high-voltage system availability. Typical causes are loss of power or ground at the module, an open or shorted CAN/LIN bus wire, a connector fault, or an internal module failure.
