AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1498/98

DTC Code DTC Name
B1498/98 Communication Malfunction (A/C Inverter Local)

DESCRIPTION

The power management control ECU and compressor with motor assembly transmit information to one another via a communication line. Compressor control is stopped and the DTC is output if communication information is cut off or abnormal information occurs.

The DTC is also detected if high-voltage power supplied from the inverter with converter assembly to the compressor control circuit is shut off.

The output DTC is memorized as previous trouble.

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
B1498/98
  • Communication line error or open between the power management control ECU and the compressor with motor assembly.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:


  • Wear electrically insulated gloves and pull out the service plug grip before inspection as procedures may require disconnecting high-voltage connectors. Be sure to carry the removed service plug grip because other workers may install it by mistake.

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

Note


  • The hybrid control system and air conditioning system output DTCs separately. Inspect DTCs following the flow chart for the hybrid control system first if any DTCs from those systems are output simultaneously.

  • Depending on the timing of the power supply to the 12 V power supply circuit and high-voltage circuit when the power switch is turned on (READY), an abnormal information signal may be output, causing this DTC to be stored. If the output DTC is a code that was memorized in the past, check the fuses and wire harnesses. If there is no malfunction, erase the DTC.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM


    1. Using the intelligent tester to check if the CAN communication system is functioning normally.
