2012 Dodge Avenger 2.4L OBD Codes C2100, U140E, C2202, and C2102: Causes and Solutions
The battery light came on in my 2012 Dodge Avenger 2.4L today, despite having a brand-new battery. This has triggered several OBD-II diagnostic codes: C2100, U140E, C2202, and C2102. Below are the code descriptions and potential causes as reported by my OBD reader. I'm seeking expert advice on what these errors might indicate and how to resolve them. Any insights or troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated. - C2100: Battery Voltage Low - Possible causes: Faulty vehicle battery, charging system malfunction, ABS module issue, or faulty Engine Control Module (ECM) - U140E: Implausible Vehicle Configuration Data Received - Possible causes: Faulty ABS module, damaged ABS module harness (open or shorted), or poor electrical connection in the ABS circuit - C2200: Original VIN Mismatch or Missing - Possible causes: The Anti-Lock Brake Module (ABM) was installed from a different vehicle, or an incorrect Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is programmed into the system - C2102: System Voltage Low - Possible causes: Low system voltage due to battery or charging system issues I suspect there may be a deeper issue with the vehicle's electronic systems, possibly related to the ABS module or VIN programming. I'd like to know if this is a common occurrence in 2012 Dodge Avenger models and what steps I should take next—such as resetting codes, replacing modules, or having a professional diagnose the system.
