P0C85Hybrid/EV Battery Temperature Sensor H Circuit Intermittent/Erratic

P0C85 indicates that the hybrid or electric vehicle battery temperature sensor in circuit H is sending an intermittent or erratic signal to the battery energy control module. The computer detects this when the sensor voltage momentarily drops out or jumps in a way that does not match the expected temperature profile, often logging the fault without permanently disabling the system.
