What Does the B1461 Mercury Code Mean?

The Charge Port Light Ring (CPLR) is a component that indicates the current Customer State-of-Charge (CSoC) and charging operations of Battery Electric vehicles. When plugged into an external power source (120 or 240 volts), the Generic Function Module (GFM) activates the light ring around the charge port inlet. The CPLR displays charging, charging faults, and charging status. The LED light segments are monitored for faults. This Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) sets when the GFM senses an LED segment of the light ring has failed.
