HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0AFC-129

DTC Code DTC Name
P0AFC-129 Hybrid Battery Pack Sensor Module

DESCRIPTION

The battery smart unit (battery energy control module) sends HV battery voltage information to the power management control ECU via serial communication.

DTC No. INF Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0AFC 129 HV battery voltage circuit malfunction Battery smart unit

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The power management control ECU calculates the differences between the received HV battery voltage, boost converter voltage, and inverter voltage. If any of the differences exceed prescribed values, the power management control ECU determines that there is a malfunction in the battery smart unit circuit. When the power management control ECU detects this malfunction, it will illuminate the MIL and set a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN


  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

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

  4. Turn the power switch off.

  5. Turn the power switch on (READY).

  6. With the shift lever in D, depress both the accelerator pedal and brake pedal at the same time to raise the SOC to a sufficient level.

  7. Move the shift lever to P, check that the engine is stopped.

  8. Set the A/C for maximum cooling.

  9. Leave the vehicle for a few minutes.

    Tech Tips

    During step 9, make sure that the engine is stopped. If the engine starts, restart from step 6.

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

  11. Check that permanent DTCs are cleared.

  12. If the permanent DTCs are not cleared, perform the universal trip, and then check for permanent DTCs again.

    Tech Tips


    • If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.

    • If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

Performing the check procedures for a long time with the shift lever in N may cause DTC P3000-388 to be set.

Tech Tips

If, after performing troubleshooting, it is necessary to replace the battery smart unit, voltages need to be confirmed after installing the new battery smart unit. Confirm that "Power Resource VB", "VL-Voltage before Boosting", and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" in the Data List are 280 V or more with the power switch on (READY), shift lever in P, and the engine stopped. When the system is normal, the "Power Resource VB", "VL-Voltage before Boosting", and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" values should be almost equal (voltage boosting will not occur when the shift lever is in N). If the difference between each voltage exceeds the values specified below, there is a malfunction in the inverter with converter assembly.

Inspection voltage Maximum voltage difference
Difference between "Power Resource VB" and "VL-Voltage before Boosting" 40 V
Difference between "Power Resource VB" and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" 40 V
Difference between "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" 50 V

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT (HYBRID CONTROL)


    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

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

    4. Check if DTCs are output.

      Tech Tips


      • *1: If any INF codes are output for this DTC, refer to the corresponding diagnostic procedure.

      • P0AFC-129 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.

    5. Turn the power switch off.
