1. What does B1562 mean?

B1562 is documented for the 2024–2026 Dodge Charger (US) as a GPS-antenna circuit fault. Verified variants include short-to-ground, short-to-battery, and open-circuit descriptions. Official manufacturer communications also reference B1570-93 for USB communication—no operation.

2. Technical explanation

The supplied official manufacturer communication evidence identifies GPS antenna circuit fault variants: B1562-11, GPS antenna circuit short to ground; B1562-12, GPS antenna circuit short to battery; and B1562-13, GPS antenna circuit open. A separate official communication lists B1562-14 as GPS antenna circuit short to ground or open, and notes that the listed DTCs set in the TBM. The supplied evidence does not establish a single universal meaning for the base code B1562 without its suffix.

3. What system is affected?

GPS antenna circuit. The TBM is identified in one official communication as the module in which the listed DTCs set.

4. How serious is this code?

Not yet established by verified evidence.

5. Symptoms you may notice

  • B1570-93 is described in supplied official evidence as “USB Communication - No operation.”
  • Other driver-visible symptoms are not yet established by verified evidence.

6. Possible causes

  • GPS antenna circuit short to ground, as described by B1562-11.
  • GPS antenna circuit short to battery, as described by B1562-12.
  • GPS antenna circuit open, as described by B1562-13.
  • For B1562-14, the official evidence describes a GPS antenna circuit short to ground or open.
  • A root cause beyond the circuit-fault descriptions is not yet established by verified evidence.

7. Can I still drive the vehicle?

Not yet established by verified evidence.

8. Can I charge the vehicle?

Not yet established by verified evidence.

9. What you can safely do

  • Record the complete DTC suffix, such as B1562-11, B1562-12, B1562-13, or B1562-14, because the verified descriptions differ by suffix.
  • Arrange diagnosis by an authorized Dodge service provider if the code remains present or if USB communication has no operation.
  • Do not attempt high-voltage-system repair based on this code; no high-voltage repair procedure is established by the supplied evidence.

10. Step-by-step troubleshooting

  1. Use manufacturer diagnostic information to identify the exact stored B1562 suffix and the module reporting it.
  2. The supplied evidence states that the listed DTCs set in the TBM.
  3. Further diagnostic steps are not yet established by verified evidence.

11. When to contact service

Service need is not yet established by verified evidence. However, authorized Dodge service diagnosis is appropriate for a persistent GPS antenna circuit DTC or the verified USB no-operation condition.

12. What the service center may check

  • Confirm the exact B1562 suffix.
  • Confirm whether the DTC is stored in the TBM, consistent with the supplied official communication.
  • Check applicable Dodge manufacturer communications for the vehicle’s exact configuration. Additional inspection or test procedures are not provided in the supplied evidence.

13. Possible repair or resolution

  • Not yet established by verified evidence.
