What does code P0E34 mean?

Q: What does code P0E34 mean?

DC/DC Converter Voltage Sensor A High. P0E34 indicates that the powertrain control module has detected an abnormally high voltage signal from the sensor monitoring the output of the DC/DC converter, which is the component that steps high-voltage battery power down to charge the 12-volt system. The computer compares this signal against expected limits and sets the code when the reported voltage exceeds the calibrated threshold for a set time.
