Abstract

A method for operating a processor controlling a dual battery mounted on a hybrid electric vehicle, includes opening a relay positioned between a first battery for a load and a second battery for starting, and checking whether the attempt to start is successful when an attempt to start the hybrid electric vehicle is detected, closing the relay so that the first battery and the second battery are electrically connected in parallel when the processor concludes that the attempt to start is unsuccessful, and charging the second battery by entering the second battery into a charging mode when a reattempt to start the hybrid electric vehicle is successful.
