AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1475

DTC Code DTC Name
B1475 A/C Inverter Cooling / Heating System Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The temperature sensor of the compressor with motor assembly detects the A/C inverter temperature.

If the temperature exceeds the maximum, operation of the compressor with motor assembly will be stopped, and this DTC will be stored.

DTC No. Detection Item DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area Memory
B1475 A/C Inverter Cooling / Heating System Malfunction A/C inverter temperature outside specified range (temperature too high) or open or short to ground in temperature sensor circuit

  • Cooling fan system

  • Refrigerant volume

  • Compressor with motor assembly

  • CAN communication system

 Memorized

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:


  • Before inspecting the high-voltage system, 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.

  • 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.
