MONITOR DESCRIPTION

When the MG ECU detects an abnormal current in the generator inverter, the HV control ECU illuminates the MIL and sets 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 DTCs. (Click here)

    Result:
    The DTCs shown in the table below are output:

    DTC No.
    Relevant Diagnosis
    P0A1D
    HV ECU circuit malfunction
    P0A4B, P0A4C, P0A4D
    Generator resolver circuit
    P0A72, P0A75
    Generator current sensor circuit
    P0A7A (Except for 809, 810, and 811)
    Generator inverter function malfunction
    P0A92
    Generator function malfunction
    P0A1A
    HV ECU circuit malfunction

    HINT:
    1. Turning the ignition switch to the ON position with the service plug grip and inverter cover removed causes interlock switch system DTC P0A0D-350 to be output.
    2. P0A7A-809, 810, and 811 may be output due to a malfunction which causes the DTCs in the table above to be output. In this case, first troubleshoot the output DTCs in the table above. Then, perform a reproduction test to check that no DTCs are output.



YES
GO TO DTC CHART
NO


2.CHECK CONNECTION CONDITION OF MG ECU CONNECTOR (LOOSENESS AND POOR CONTACT)

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 the 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. Check the connections of the MG ECU connectors.

    OK:
    Connectors are connected securely and there is no poor connection.



NG
CONNECT SECURELY
OK


3.CHECK HYBRID VEHICLE TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY (GENERATOR)

CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.



    A105181
  1. Check that the service plug grip is removed.

  1. Check that the bolts for the HV Generator three-phase AC cable are tightened to the specified torque.

Torque:
10 N*m{ 102 kgf*cm , 7 ft.*lbf }



NG
TIGHTEN THEM TO SPECIFIED TORQUE
OK


4.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (MG ECU - GENERATOR RESOLVER)


    A105167
  1. Remove the w/ converter inverter assembly.

  1. Disconnect the M6 generator resolver connector.

  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
    GRF (I24-12) - Body ground
    Below 1 V
    GRFG (I24-22) - Body ground
    Below 1 V
    GSN (I24-11) - Body ground
    Below 1 V
    GSNG (I24-10) - Body ground
    Below 1 V
    GCS (I24-9) - Body ground
    Below 1 V
    GCSG (I24-8) - 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 (Check for open):
    Tester Connection
    Specified Condition
    GRF (I24-12) - GRF (M6-1)

    Below 1 Ω
    GSN (I24-11) - GSN (M6-2)
    Below 1 Ω
    GSNG (I24-10) - GSNG (M6-7)
    Below 1 Ω
    GCS (I24-9) - GCS (M6-3)
    Below 1 Ω
    GCSG (I24-8) - GCSG (M6-8)
    Below 1 Ω

    Standard Resistance (Check for short):
