DESCRIPTION


DTC No. INF Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area

P0A9D

P0A9E

P0AC7

P0AC8

P0ACC

P0ACD

 123 When the temperature of the battery temperature sensor is less than the standard value (open) or higher than the standard value (shorted) (1 trip detection).

  • HV battery

  • Battery smart unit

  • Wire harness or connector

Tech Tips

After confirming that a DTC is output, use the Techstream to check "Temp of BATT TB 1 to 3" in the hybrid vehicle control system ECU data list.

Temperature Displayed Malfunction
Below -45°C (-49°F) Open or +B short circuit
95°C (203°F) or more GND short circuit

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

If the temperature indicated by the battery temperature sensor is lower than the standard level (open), or is higher than the standard level (short), the battery smart unit interprets this as a sensor malfunction. If the battery smart unit detects that HV battery temperature is out of the normal range or its value is abnormal, the power management control ECU 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) and turn the Techstream on.

  6. Perform the universal trip.

  7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / HV / Trouble Codes.

  8. Check that permanent DTCs are cleared.

    Tech Tips


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

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

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:


  • Before inspecting the high-voltage system, take safety precautions to prevent electrical shocks, such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip. 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

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

  • When disposing of an HV battery, make sure to return it through an authorized collection agent who is capable of handling it safely. If the HV battery is returned via the manufacturer specified route, it will be returned properly and in a safe manner by an authorized collection agent.

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.
