AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P0AA6-611

DTC Code DTC Name
P0AA6-611 Hybrid Battery Voltage System Isolation Fault

DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored if there is insulation malfunction in the high-voltage circuit in the air conditioning system. Possible causes are poor insulation in the compressor with motor assembly, or mixing of any oil other than ND-OIL 11 in the refrigerant cycle.

A high-voltage motor is built into the compressor with motor assembly and is cooled directly with refrigerant. Compressor oil (ND-OIL 11) with high insulation performance is used because a leakage of electrical power may occur if regular compressor oil (ND-OIL 8) is used.

CAUTION:


  • Wear insulated gloves and pull out the service plug grip before inspection as procedures may require disconnecting high-voltage connectors. Carry the removed service plug in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are servicing the vehicle.

  • Do not touch the high-voltage connectors or terminals for 10 minutes after the service plug grip is removed.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:


  • Wear insulated gloves and pull out the service plug grip before inspection as procedures may require disconnecting high-voltage connectors. Carry the removed service plug in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are servicing the vehicle.

  • Do not touch the high-voltage connectors or terminals for 10 minutes after the service plug grip is removed.

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.

  • Electrical insulation performance may decrease significantly if even a small amount of oil other than ND-OIL 11 is used (or enters) in the refrigerant cycle, causing a DTC to be output.

  • If other oil is accidentally used and a DTC is output, collect as much oil in the refrigerant cycle into the compressor with motor assembly as possible and replace it with ND-OIL 11 to increase the ND-OIL 11 ratio amount.

  • Replace the main components of the air conditioning cycle (evaporator, condenser, and compressor) if a large amount of oil other than ND-OIL 11 enters the system. Failing to do so may cause electrical insulation performance to remain low, causing a DTC to be output.

  • The hybrid control system and air conditioning system output DTCs separately. Perform troubleshooting for the hybrid control system first if DTCs from these systems are output simultaneously.

Tech Tips

If it can be confirmed that any compressor oil other than ND-OIL 11 has been used in the vehicle, replace the main components of the air conditioning cycle.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

  2. INSPECT COMPRESSOR WITH MOTOR ASSEMBLY

    CAUTION:

    Because the compressor with motor assembly has a high-voltage circuit, wear insulated gloves and pull out the service plug grip to cut off the high-voltage circuit before inspection.


    1. Clear the DTCs.

      Body Electrical > Air Conditioner > Clear DTCs

    2. Turn the power switch on (READY).

    3. Prepare the vehicle according to the table below for 3 minutes.

      Item Condition
      Blower speed HI
      Temperature setting MAX COLD
      A/C switch On

    4. Turn the power switch off.

    5. Remove the service plug grip.

      CAUTION:

      Do not touch the high-voltage connectors or terminals for 10 minutes after the service plug grip is removed.

      Note

      After removing the service plug grip, turning the power switch on (READY) may cause a malfunction. Do not turn the power switch on (READY) with the service plug grip removed.

  3. INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING CYCLE

    CAUTION:

    Because the compressor with motor assembly has a high-voltage circuit, wear insulated gloves and pull out the service plug grip to cut off the high-voltage circuit before inspection.


    1. Reconnect the V2 the compressor with motor assembly connector.

    2. Install the service plug grip.

      Click here

    3. Turn the power switch on (READY).

    4. Set the A/C temperature to 25°C (77°F) and blower switch to LO and then operate the compressor with motor assembly for 10 minutes to circulate the refrigerant and collect as much compressor oil as possible in the compressor with motor assembly.

    5. Turn the power switch off.

    6. Using a spot cooler or other tool, cool down the compressor with motor assembly for 30 minutes, or leave the vehicle overnight before inspection.

      Note

      Do not operate the compressor before inspection.

    7. Remove the service plug grip.

      CAUTION:

      Do not touch the high-voltage connectors or terminals for 10 minutes after the service plug grip is removed.

      Note

      After removing the service plug grip, turning the power switch on (READY) may cause a malfunction. Do not turn the power switch on (READY) with the service plug grip removed.
