What U3516 means

U3516
High Voltage System Interlock Circuit C Performance Generic · network Data confidence 65%

The control module judged the High Voltage System Interlock Circuit C behaviour implausible for the current operating conditions.

Symptoms

  • Multiple warning lamps possible
  • Functions of the affected module unavailable

Possible causes

  • CAN bus wiring fault (open, short, chafed harness)
  • Faulty control module loading the bus
  • Connector or terminal corrosion
  • Power supply or ground fault of a module

Recommended checks

  • Perform a full-module scan to map which modules communicate
  • Check CAN bus resistance and voltages at the diagnostic connector
  • Inspect wiring and connectors of the affected module
  • Check module power supply and grounds
  • Disconnect suspect modules one at a time only with a documented procedure

Frequently asked questions about U3516

What does U3516 mean?

High Voltage System Interlock Circuit C Performance. The control module judged the High Voltage System Interlock Circuit C behaviour implausible for the current operating conditions.

Is U3516 generic or manufacturer-specific?

U3516 is a generic OBD-II code: it has the same meaning on every make and model that follows the SAE standard.

Can TuningBot remove U3516 at file level?

Not guaranteed. Powertrain (P) codes can be reliably disabled in the ECU calibration, but body, chassis and network codes depend on the specific control unit and how the fault is implemented - some can be handled, some cannot. Ask for a quote and our engineers will check your file and tell you, free of charge, whether U3516 is removable in your case.
