DTC No.
INF Code
DTC Detection Condition
Trouble Area
P0A92
261
Generator magnetic force deterioration or same phase short circuit
  1. Hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The MG ECU monitors the hybrid vehicle generator. If the MG ECU detects a reduction in the magnetic force of the MG1 or an in-phase short, it interprets this as a Generator failure. The HV control ECU then 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.

    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. P0A92-261 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.

NO


2.REPRODUCTION TEST

  1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

  1. Leave the vehicle for 1 minute with the engine on (with the Generator rotating)

  1. Check for HV system DTCs by following the prompts on the intelligent tester screen.

    Result:
    DTC output
    		Proceed to
    P0A7A-344 or P0A92-521 is output

3.CHECK W/ CONVERTER INVERTER ASSEMBLY (GENERATOR)

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.
