| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P0BCD-315 | Generator Inverter Temperature Sensor Circuit Range / Performance |
| P0BD0-314 | Generator Inverter Temperature Sensor Circuit Intermittent / Erratic |
DTC SUMMARY
MALFUNCTION DESCRIPTIONThis indicates when the temperature sensor value for generator inverter is abnormal. The cause of this malfunction may be one of the following:
Internal inverter malfunction
Inverter with converter assembly internal circuit malfunction
Hybrid cooling system malfunction
Coolant circulation abnormal (frozen or leaking, etc.)
Inverter low-voltage circuit malfunction
The connectors are not connected properly
DESCRIPTION
The MG ECU, which is built into in the inverter with converter assembly, detects the temperature of the generator inverter using the temperature sensor built into the generator inverter. If necessary, the MG ECU will limit inverter output to help prevent the generator inverter from overheating. The power management control ECU also detects malfunctions in the sensor based on the temperature sensor values. The inverter with converter assembly detects malfunctions in the generator inverter temperature sensor and its wiring.
| DTC No. | INF Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|---|
| P0BCD | 315 | Generator inverter temperature calculated by the power management control ECU is different from the actual temperature for 10 seconds or more, and the generator inverter temperature is excessively high. (1 trip detection logic) |
|
| P0BD0 | 314 | Sudden change in generator inverter temperature sensor output or hunting: Generator inverter temperature is high and either of the following conditions is met:
(1 trip detection logic) |
Tech Tips
*: If only DTC P0BD0-314 is output, a temperature sensor malfunction is more likely to be the cause than a sudden change in actual temperature.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
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 Click here.
Tech Tips
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 Click here.
Tech Tips
After the repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.
Turn the power switch on (READY) and wait for 90 seconds or more.
Drive the vehicle for approximately 10 minutes referring to the freeze frame data or Data List item: "Vehicle Spd".
PROCEDURE
CHECK DTC OUTPUT (HYBRID CONTROL)
Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.
Check if DTCs are output.

| P314A-828 | Inverter Coolant Pump Speed Signal |
Tech Tips
P0BCD-315 or P0BD0-314 may be output as a result of the malfunction indicated by the DTCs above.
Turn the power switch off.

CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION (INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY CONNECTOR)
CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
Check that the service plug grip is not installed.
Note
After removing the service plug grip, do not turn the power switch on (READY), unless instructed by the repair manual because this may cause a malfunction.
Check the connection condition of the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly and the contact pressure of each terminal. Check the terminals for deformation, and check the connector for water ingress and foreign matter Click here.
Note
Before disconnecting the connector, confirm that it is properly connected by checking that the locking claws are engaged and that the connector does not pull out.
| OK |
|---|
| - The connector is connected securely. |
| - The terminals are not deformed and are connected securely. |
| - No water or foreign matter in the connector. |

Tech Tips
When connecting the connector, insert it with the locking lever in the raised position. Rotate the lever downward and make sure that the connector is pulled into its socket. When the locking lever is in its fully closed position, a click will be heard as its locking claws engage. After the click is heard, pull up on the connector to confirm that it is properly connected.
