Hi
Getting a error code for over voltage, Battery module is suspect, but how can I test it ?.
Have removed plug to it and ran the engine, done a scan and the error is not showing, would that suggest the the Battery Control Module has a fault ?.

@spike47: Hi.
First - let's look at the wiring diagram for the Battery Control Module on this car - which is called J367:
As you can see - the 2 x pin connector on J367 connects the module to J533 and to a fuse. J533 is what a diagnostic device calls the (CAN) Gateway module - I suspect this is the module from which the SCAN snippet in your post was copied.
Notice in my picture that I show the term "LIN bus". LIN is short for Local Interconnect Network - it's a low-speed, single-wire (as depicted in my diagram) communication protocol. In a LIN set-up there is a LIN master (in this case J533) and a number of LIN slaves (in this case the Alternator and J367).
When you removed the 2 x pin connector from J367 (shown as T2 in my diagram) - surely the SCAN would have reported that J533 was no longer able to talk to J367?
So, I can't answer your question because you have removed valuable data from your SCAN report and only posted a sub section of the diagnostic information. I'm not sure why folk keep doing this - maybe it's because they don't want to complicate their posts. However, there are many ways to read a SCAN report and the major advantage of a full report is that it gives the fault information context about the way that the ENTIRE car is built
If you want to pursue this matter - post-up the FULL (meaning not edited) SCAN with the 2 x pin connector plugged into J367 (please). Again, don't edit ANY part of the report

Please don't PM to ask questions about coding, or vehicle repairs. The better place to deal with these matters is on-line, in the forum proper. That way you get the benefit of the expertise of the wider forum! Thank you.
