Transit electric high voltage error

I am experiencing issues with my 2022 Ford Transit electric. At 76701 km, a high-voltage system error message is being displayed. Symptoms include the error being stored, engine shut-off, and reduced engine power. Could this be a voltage sensor issue?

Sounds like a nasty problem with your Transit. High-voltage errors can be tricky. It could be a voltage sensor, but there are other possibilities. A heavily discharged or defective battery can cause similar issues. Also, have you checked for any signs of cable damage, especially around the battery pack and the high-voltage components? Sometimes, a bad connection can trigger these errors. Is the error happening consistently, or is it intermittent?

Thanks for the quick reply. The error is intermittent, and I have not checked for cable damage. Where exactly should I be looking for cable damage? I am not very experienced with EV systems.

Okay, intermittent errors can be the worst to diagnose! Given your lack of EV experience, I wouldn't recommend poking around the high-voltage system yourself; it's seriously dangerous. Cable damage could be anywhere from the battery pack to the motor controller. It's best to get it checked out by a qualified technician who knows these Transit electrics. Given the symptoms, a battery issue is quite likely. Take it to a workshop.

Understood. I took it to a workshop, and the error memory was read. The workshop confirmed the battery was heavily discharged. After charging the battery, the error was gone. Repair cost was 290€. Thank you for your help!
