Frequently Asked Questions
- What are "ghost DTCs" in my Audi e-tron?
- Ghost DTCs are Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) that are erroneously stored in the high-voltage battery charger control module (J1050) due to a software diagnosis issue. These codes, such as B200000, P0CA400, and U112100, do not indicate an actual fault with your 2021-2024 Audi e-tron or e-tron Sportback and are considered normal.
- Should I be concerned if my Audi e-tron has DTC B200000 or P0CA400?
- No, if you are not experiencing any actual charging issues, these DTCs are considered ghost codes and can be ignored. Audi TSB 2062631/5 clarifies that these codes are a result of a diagnostic software issue and do not require any repair or part replacement.
- What should I do if my Audi e-tron has actual charging problems?
