AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1475/75

DTC Code DTC Name
B1475/75 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

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.
