Battery Current Sensor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 GMC Yukon, 2010 Chevrolet Tahoe, and 2010 Cadillac Escalade. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The battery current sensor is a serviceable component that is connected to the negative battery cable at the battery. The battery current sensor is a 3-wire hall effect current sensor. The battery current sensor monitors the battery current. It directly inputs to the BCM. It creates a 5-volt pulse width modulation (PWM) signal of 128 Hz with a duty cycle of 0-100 percent. Normal duty cycle is between 5-95 percent. Between 0-5 percent and 95-100 percent are for diagnostic purposes.
