Review the 'Possible Causes' mentioned above and visually examine the corresponding wiring harness and connectors. Ensure to check for any damaged components and inspect the connector pins for signs of being broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded.
To diagnose the P1EAC Buick code, it typically requires 1.0 hour of labor. The specific diagnosis time and labor rates at auto repair shops can differ based on factors such as the location, make and model of the vehicle, and even the engine type. It is common for most auto repair shops to charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
The 2nd protection is a redundant method to monitor cell group overvoltage. The four hybrid/EV battery interface control modules independently read and test each cell group. The 2nd protection circuit fault is the actual hardwire signal from the four hybrid/EV battery interface control modules to the hybrid/EV battery energy control module and terminating in the hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2. The hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2 diagnoses this line to determine when a cell group overvoltage condition exists.
The 2nd protection self test diagnostic is used to check the signal circuit. The hybrid/EV battery energy control module performs this test, once, every power down cycle. When run/crank input signal transitions low and after a calibrated delay, the hybrid/EV battery energy control module informs the hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2, via serial data communication bus that it is about to run the diagnostics on the 2nd protection circuit. The hybrid/EV battery energy control module then proceeds to command, via internal serial data, each hybrid/EV battery interface control module to run the check on its hardwire output. Each of the four hybrid/EV battery interface control modules pulls the signal circuit low and releases it, in sequence. If any pulses are missing, the hybrid/EV battery energy control module is able to diagnose which hybrid/EV battery interface control module(s) has a fault and sets a related fault and sends this information to the hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2 on the serial data
