Not Available

What does the VCLEFT_a477_LVBatteryUnrecoverableByVehicle alert mean?

The low voltage battery management system (LVBMS) reports the low voltage (LV) battery's internal protection transistor (MOSFET) has opened and it is not recoverable by the vehicle. However, the LV battery may be recoverable using an external LV Lithium Ion Battery charger tool. A separate alert will indicate whether the battery requires replacement.

What you'll see in your Tesla

  • Not Available

What triggers it

The LVBMS reports to the vehicle controller that the LV battery is not recoverable due to any of the following conditions: depleted LV battery state of charge (SoC) due to deep discharge; one or more cell voltage(s) at less than its threshold; the sum of all cell voltages is less than its threshold.

When it clears

The LV battery is replaced and its internal protection transistor (MOSFET) is detected closed.

Potential impact

The LV battery is not recoverable by the vehicle. If recovery via an external charger tool is unsuccessful, replacement will be necessary.

Affected models

Cybertruck
