HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0C76-523

DTC Code DTC Name
P0C76-523 Hybrid Battery System Discharge Time Too Long

DTC SUMMARY

  1. MALFUNCTION DESCRIPTION

    The hybrid vehicle control ECU detects that the electrical charge stored in the high-voltage condenser of the inverter with converter assembly cannot be discharged.

    The cause of this malfunction may be one of the following:

    • Inside of inverter voltage sensor (VH) circuit malfunction

    • Voltage sensor (VH) malfunction

    • Motor generator control ECU (MG ECU) malfunction

    • Communication (wire harness) malfunction

    • High voltage system malfunction

    • Inverter with converter assembly malfunction

    • Shutdown signal circuit malfunction

    • Hybrid vehicle control ECU malfunction

    • Wire harness malfunction

    • Inverter with converter assembly malfunction

Warning Indicate

P0C76-523

Hybrid Battery System Discharge Time Too Long

The inverter voltage (VH) does not drop during discharge.

(Discharge: Offsetting of the residual pressure in the high-voltage side after power switch is turned off)

(1 trip detection logic)

  • Inverter with converter assembly

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Hybrid vehicle control ECU

Does not come on

Master Warning Light:

Comes on
Tip:

When the power switch is turned from on (READY) to off, the MG ECU discharges voltage stored in the inverter by allowing current to flow to motor (MG2) without generating torque. When the vehicle is normal, VH voltage becomes approximately 0 V after discharging. If VH voltage exceeds a specified value, this DTC is stored.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

  • Before inspecting the high-voltage system or disconnecting the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly, take safety precautions such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip to prevent electrical shocks. After removing the service plug grip, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.

  • After removing the service plug grip, wait for at least 10 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals. After waiting for 10 minutes, check the voltage at the terminals in the inspection point in the inverter with converter assembly. The voltage should be 0 V before beginning work.

    Tip:

    Waiting for at least 10 minutes is required to discharge the high-voltage capacitor inside the inverter with converter assembly.

Note:

After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

Tip:

After the repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.

  1. Turn the power switch off and wait for 30 seconds or more.

  2. Turn the power switch on (READY) and wait for 30 seconds or more.

  3. Turn the power switch off and wait for 30 seconds or more.

PROCEDURE

  1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT (HYBRID CONTROL)

    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.

    4. Check for DTCs.
