  1. MALFUNCTION DESCRIPTION

    This DTC indicates when the temperature inside the inverter has become abnormal. The cause of this malfunction may be one of the following:


    • Internal inverter malfunction
    • Inverter internal circuit malfunction

    • Malfunction in ECU that controls the inverter

    • Malfunction in sensor for inverter control (coolant sensor)


    • Hybrid cooling system malfunction
    • Coolant is leaking, insufficient coolant level, frozen or the passenger of coolant is clogged.

    • Grille is blocked.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

Tip:

After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.

Click here


  1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

  2. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.

  3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).

  4. Turn the power switch off and wait for 2 minutes or more.

  5. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.

  6. With power switch on (IG) and wait for 5 seconds or more.

  7. Turn the power switch on (READY) and wait for 5 seconds or more.

  8. Perform a road test according to the freeze frame data item "Vehicle Speed" for approximately 10 minutes.

    (Check the Data List items "Inverter Coolant Water Temperature", "Motor Inverter Temperature", "Generator Inverter Temperature", "Boosting Converter Temperature (Upper)" and "Boosting Converter Temperature (Lower)" to prevent the motor inverter from overheating.

    Note:

    As the state of charge of the HV battery voltage may be low after driving in fail-safe mode, it will automatically be charged for 5 to 10 minutes after repairs have been performed and turn the power switch on (READY).

  9. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Utility / All Readiness.

  10. Check the DTC judgment result.

    Tip:
    • If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.

    • If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

    • If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE, perform driving pattern again.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

  • B004STG

    Before the following operations are conducted, take precautions to prevent electric shock by turning the power switch off, wearing insulated gloves, and removing the service plug grip from HV battery.


    • Inspecting the high-voltage system

    • Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly

    • Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the HV battery

  • B004Y5N

    To prevent electric shock, make sure to remove the service plug grip to cut off the high voltage circuit before servicing the vehicle.

  • B004SX1

    After removing the service plug grip from the HV battery, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.

  • B004W3JC06
    *a Without waiting for 10 minutes

    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.

    Click here

    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.
