Tech Tips
"Cooling Fan Frequency1" is detected when the battery cooling blower assembly is operating and its value changes in proportion to the battery cooling blower assembly speed.
If the battery cooling blower assembly speed is excessively high, this DTC is stored.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
CAUTION:
Before the following operations are conducted, take precautions to prevent electric shock by turning the power switch off, wearing insulated gloves, and removing the service plug grips from both FC stack assembly and EV battery.
Inspecting the high-voltage system
Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly
Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the EV battery
Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the FC stack assembly
Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the FC converter assembly
Tech Tips
No removal order is specified for the service plug grips of the FC stack assembly and EV battery.
After removing the service plug grip from the EV battery, 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 grip from the FC stack assembly, store it in a safe location and use the "HIGH-VOLTAGE, DO NOT TOUCH" sign to notify other technicians that you are working on the high-voltage system.
| *a | Without waiting for 10 minutes |
After removal of the service plug grips of both FC stack assembly and EV battery, wait for at least 10 minutes before touching the high-voltage connectors and 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.
Tech Tips
At least 10 minutes are necessary to discharge the high-voltage capacitors inside the inverter with converter assembly and FC stack 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.
When reinstalling the service plug grip to the FC stack assembly or the EV battery, slide the lever of the service plug until the letters "UNLOCK" are completely hidden, and insert it firmly.
When the vehicle is parked with the power switch off, if the FC control ECU judges that the FC stack temperature will go below 0°C (32°F), it activates the FC air compressor, hydrogen pump and FC cooling water pump for a maximum of 180 seconds and drains water from the FC stack assembly. When performing inspection or repairs with the power switch off (not on (IG) or on (READY)), disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal before performing work (If the auxiliary battery voltage is needed to conduct inspection, warm up the FC system beforehand).
Tech Tips
After the repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / EV / Active Test / Activate the Battery Cooling Fan.
Select fan mode 6 and operate the battery cooling blower assembly.
Operation of the battery cooling blower assembly can be confirmed by checking if air is sucked into the air intake port of the intake duct.

CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY VOLTAGE SENSOR - BATTERY COOLING BLOWER ASSEMBLY)
| Result | |||
|---|---|---|---|
|
CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
Check that the service plug grip is not installed to FC stack assembly and EV battery.
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.
Remove the luggage compartment front trim cover.
Disconnect the battery cooling blower assembly connector.
Note
Before disconnecting the connector, check that it is not loose or disconnected.
Disconnect the battery voltage sensor connector.
Note
Before disconnecting the connector, check that it is not loose or disconnected.
Check that each connector between the battery voltage sensor and battery cooling blower assembly is not loose or disconnected.

Note
When taking a measurement with a tester, do not apply excessive force to the tester probe to avoid damaging the holder.
Connect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Standard Voltage | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Note
Turning the power switch on (IG) with the service plug grip removed causes other DTCs to be stored. Clear the DTCs after performing this inspection.
If the power switch is turned on (IG) with the connectors disconnected, other DTCs will be stored. Be sure to clear the DTCs after the inspection.
When taking a measurement with a tester, do not apply excessive force to the tester probe to avoid damaging the holder.
Tech Tips
As there might be an intermittent malfunction, inspect the following items even if the measured voltage is as specified.
Check that each connector between the battery voltage sensor and battery cooling blower assembly is not loose or disconnected.
Turn the power switch off.
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
Reconnect the battery voltage sensor connector.
Reconnect the battery cooling blower assembly connector.
Install the luggage compartment front trim cover.

CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
Check that the service plug grip is not installed to FC stack assembly and EV battery.
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.
Remove the luggage compartment front trim cover.
Connect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / EV / Trouble Codes.
Clear the DTCs and freeze frame data.
Note
When DTCs are cleared, freeze frame data and INF codes are also cleared.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / EV / Active Test / Activate the Battery Cooling Fan.
| Tester Display | Measurement Item | Control Range | Restrict Condition |
