DESCRIPTION
The hybrid vehicle control ECU controls the SOC (state of charge) of the HV battery at a constant level while driving. The HV battery is composed of 20 modules, and each module consists of 12 1.2 V cells in series. The battery smart unit monitors the battery block voltage at 20 locations.
| DTC Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0A80-123 | The difference in voltage between the battery blocks is larger than the standard (2 trip detection) |
|
Tech Tips
This DTC cannot be set unless the vehicle is driven for approximately 10 minutes after clearing the DTCs. Two trip detection logic is used. After the first road test, turn the power switch off and perform a road test again.

CHECK BATTERY SMART UNIT
Make sure the areas in front and at the back of the vehicle are safe.
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (READY).
Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Data List / Battery Block Vol - V01 to V20.
Fully warm up the engine and turn the air conditioning off.
Firmly depress the brake pedal with your left foot.
Move the shift lever to the D position.
Record each battery block voltage in the data list ("Battery Block Vol - V01 to V20") while fully depressing the accelerator pedal.
Compare the battery block voltages ("Battery Block Vol - V01 to V20") between the even and odd number groups in each combination shown in the table below.
| Odd number group | Even number group | Battery block voltages to be compared |
|---|---|---|
| Battery Block Vol - V01 | Battery Block Vol - V02 | Battery Block Vol - V01 - Battery Block Vol - V02 |
| Battery Block Vol - V03 | Battery Block Vol - V04 | Battery Block Vol - V03 - Battery Block Vol - V04 |
| Battery Block Vol - V05 | Battery Block Vol - V06 | Battery Block Vol - V05 - Battery Block Vol - V06 |
| Battery Block Vol - V07 | Battery Block Vol - V08 | Battery Block Vol - V07 - Battery Block Vol - V08 |
| Battery Block Vol - V09 | Battery Block Vol - V10 | Battery Block Vol - V09 - Battery Block Vol - V10 |
| Battery Block Vol - V11 | Battery Block Vol - V12 | Battery Block Vol - V11 - Battery Block Vol - V12 |
| Battery Block Vol - V13 | Battery Block Vol - V14 | Battery Block Vol - V13 - Battery Block Vol - V14 |
| Battery Block Vol - V15 | Battery Block Vol - V16 | Battery Block Vol - V15 - Battery Block Vol - V16 |
| Battery Block Vol - V17 | Battery Block Vol - V18 | Battery Block Vol - V17 - Battery Block Vol - V18 |
| Battery Block Vol - V19 | Battery Block Vol - V20 | Battery Block Vol - V19 - Battery Block Vol - V20 |
Check if the difference in the voltage of each combination is 0.3 V or more.
| Result | Proceed to |
|---|---|
| Difference in voltage of each combination is 0.3 V or more. | A |
| Other than above | B |
Tech Tips
The difference in the voltage of each combination may be 0.3 V or more due to a battery smart unit internal error.
