B1325 B0xxx · Body (B) Medium severity

System Voltage Out of Range

The body module has seen voltage either too low or too high. Check the charging system in both directions before replacing anything.

Severity guidance: Medium — drivability or emissions affected, book it in this week

Symptoms you will notice

  • Random warning lamps
  • Modules dropping off the bus
  • Dimming or flickering lights

Common causes

Ordered from most to least likely — start at the top.

  1. 1 Charging system fault (under- or over-charging)
  2. 2 Loose battery terminal
  3. 3 Faulty earth
  4. 4 Jump-start voltage spike

How to diagnose it

Cheapest and least invasive first — most of these codes are not a parts problem.

  1. ✓ Measure charging voltage at idle and at 2,000 rpm with loads on.
  2. ✓ Check battery terminals for tightness and corrosion.
  3. ✓ Look at the vehicle history for recent jump starts.
  4. ✓ Read the same fault across other modules to see how widespread it is.

Repair options

  • Repair the charging system
  • Clean and tighten terminals
  • Replace a damaged battery

B1325 — frequently asked questions

Multiple modules have the same code — what does that mean? +

A vehicle-wide supply problem, not a module fault. Start at the battery and alternator.

Can jump-starting damage modules? +

Yes if polarity is reversed or voltage spikes. Always connect a stable supply when boosting modern vehicles.
