MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The MG ECU performs many diagnostic tests to verify proper operation of internal ECU systems. In this diagnostic monitor, the MG ECU checks for an R/D (Resolver/Digital Converter) malfunction involving the rear motor resolver. If MG ECU detects an R/D error, it will conclude that there is an internal malfunction involving the rear motor resolver. The HV control ECU will illuminate the MIL and set a DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:
  1. Before inspecting the high-voltage system, take safety precautions to prevent electrical shocks, such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip. After removing the service plug grip, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.
  2. After disconnecting the service plug grip, wait for at least 5 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals.

HINT:
At least 5 minutes is required to discharge the high-voltage capacitor inside the w/ converter inverter assembly.

1.READ OUTPUT DTC (HV)

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

  1. Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / DTC.

  1. Read output DTC. (Click here)

    Result:
    Any of the following DTCs are output:

    DTC No.

NO


2.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MG ECU - BODY GROUND)

CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

  1. Turn the ignition switch off and remove the service plug grip. (Click here)

    NOTICE:
    Do not put the vehicle into the READY-on state with the service plug grip removed as this may cause a malfunction.

  1. Remove the inverter cover. (Click here)

    NOTICE:
    1. Wrap the interlock round terminal for the inverter cover with vinyl tape to prevent it from shorting to ground.
    2. Prevent water in reservoir tank from entering the inverter.
    3. Removing the inverter cover causes the MG ECU board to be exposed. Therefore, temporarily install the inverter cover for each area to be inspected.

  1. Disconnect the I25 connector from the MG ECU.

  1. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below when the ignition switch is in the ON position.

    Standard voltage:
    Tester Connection
    		Specified Condition
    RRF (I25-21) - Body ground
    		Below 1 V
    RRFG (I25-22) - Body ground
    		Below 1 V
    RSN (I25-29) - Body ground
    		Below 1 V
    RSNG (I25-30) - Body ground
    		Below 1V
    RCS (I25-11) - Body ground
    		Below 1 V
    RCSG (I25-23) - Body ground
    		Below 1 V

    NOTICE:
    Turning the ignition switch to the ON position with the MG ECU connectors disconnected causes other DTCs to be stored. Clear the DTCs after performing the inspection.

  1. Turn the ignition switch off.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance:
    Tester Connection
    		Specified Condition
    RRF (I25-21) - RRFG (I25-22)
    		7.65 to 10.2 Ω
    RSN (I25-29) - RSNG (I25-30)
    		12.6 to 16.8 Ω
    RCS (I25-11) - RCSG (I25-23)
    		12.6 to 16.8 Ω

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance:
    Tester Connection
    		Specified Condition
    RRF (I25-21) or RRFG (I25-22) - Body ground
    		10 kΩ or higher
    RSN (I25-29) or RSNG (I25-30) - Body ground
    		10 kΩ or higher
    RCS (I25-11) or RCSG (I25-23) - Body ground
    		10 kΩ or higher

3.INSPECT REAR MOTOR RESOLVER


    A083675E05

  1. Disconnect the M11 rear motor resolver connector.

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance:
    Tester Connection
    		Specified Condition
    RRF (M11-1) - RRFG (M11-4)
    		7.65 to 10.2 Ω

    		12.6 to 16.8 Ω
    RCS (M11-3) - RCSG (M11-6)
    		12.6 to 16.8 Ω

  1. Using a megohmmeter, measure the insulation resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance:
    Tester Connection
    		Specified Condition
    RRF (M11-1) - RSN (M11-2)
    		10 MΩ or higher
