DTC Code DTC Name
P0C73-776 Motor Electronics Coolant Pump "A" Control Performance

DESCRIPTION

The water pump with motor assembly transmits rotation speed information to the power management control ECU (HV CPU). The power management control ECU (HV CPU) monitors the speed and detects malfunctions.

DTC No. INF Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0C73 776

A speed or intermittent stop malfunction occurs in the inverter water pump assembly.

A revolution malfunction (speed is too high/low or stop) or an intermittent stop malfunction (operation stops intermittently when the revolution speed is abnormal) occurs in the inverter water pump assembly.

  • Inverter cooling system

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Inverter water pump assembly

  • Power management control ECU

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

In the case of a coolant leak, the inverter water pump assembly activates a fail-safe function. If the inverter water pump assembly is not the cause of the coolant leak, it is not necessary to replace it.

Tech Tips

After the repair, clear the DTCs and perform the following procedure to check that DTCs are not output.


  1. Turn the power switch on (READY) and wait for 2 minutes or more.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK QUANTITY OF HV COOLANT


    1. Check the coolant level in the inverter reserve tank.

    2. Check for coolant leaks.

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      No leaks are found and coolant level in the inverter reserve tank assembly is above the low line. A
      No leaks are found and coolant level in the inverter reserve tank assembly is below the low line. B
      Coolant leaks are evident. C

      Tech Tips

      After repairing the coolant leaks and adding coolant, perform the "Activate the Water Pump" Active Test (HV Active Test item) and the "Control the Electric Cooling Fan" Active Test (Engine Active Test item) and make sure that there are no malfunctions.

  2. CHECK COOLANT HOSE


    1. Check if the hoses of the cooling system are kinked or clogged.


    NG

    CORRECT THE PROBLEM

    OK

  3. CHECK INVERTER WATER PUMP ASSEMBLY

    Note

    Be sure to perform the inspection with the auxiliary battery voltage at 11 V or more.

    Tech Tips


    • When the auxiliary battery voltage is low, the inverter water pump assembly may not operate.

    • When the inverter water pump assembly operation command line (SWP - IWP) is open or its connection is faulty, the inverter water pump assembly is operated forcibly.


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Data List.

    4. Select Inverter W/P Revolution in the Data List.

    5. Read the Data List.

      OK
      Inverter W/P Revolution is 625 rpm or less.

      Tech Tips

      When the inverter water pump assembly is not operating, the Data List item "Inverter W/P Revolution" displays a value lower than 625 rpm.

    6. Turn the power switch off.

  4. CLEAR DTC


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.

    4. Clear DTCs and freeze frame data.

  5. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (ACTIVATE THE WATER PUMP)

    Note

    Be sure to perform the inspection with the auxiliary battery voltage at 11 V or more.

    Tech Tips

    When the auxiliary battery voltage is low, the inverter water pump assembly may not operate.


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Active Test / Activate the Water Pump.

    4. Select Inverter W/P Revolution in the Data List.

    5. While performing the "Activate the Water Pump" Active Test, check Inverter W/P Revolution in the Data List.

      Result
      Data List Item Specified Condition
      Inverter W/P Revolution 2250 to 5625 rpm

      Tech Tips


      • Perform the Active Test with the inverter coolant temperature between 5 to 149°F (-15 and 65°C).

      • When the inverter water pump assembly is not operating, the Data List item "Inverter W/P Revolution" displays a value lower than 625 rpm.

    6. Turn the power switch off.

  6. CHECK HV COOLANT (CHECK FOR CONDITIONS THAT MAY HAVE CAUSED FREEZING)


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Read the freeze frame data Ambient Temperature using the intelligent tester.

    4. Check if the freeze frame data Ambient Temperature is below freezing.

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      Ambient Temperature value is above freezing temperature of the HV coolant A
      Ambient Temperature value is below freezing temperature of the HV coolant B

      Tech Tips


      • HV coolant (SLLC) with a 30% concentration freezes at -15 °C (5°F) and HV coolant (SLLC) with a 50% concentration freezes at -35°C (-31°F).

      • If the HV coolant freezes in the HV radiator or inverter water pump assembly, the coolant temperature in the inverter with converter assembly rises because the HV coolant cannot circulate. As a result, a DTC may be set.

      • A DTC is set when the water pump impeller cannot rotate due to freezing of the HV coolant.

      • If a DTC is set due to freezing of HV coolant, the problem cannot be reproduced. Judge whether freezing of HV coolant occurred according to the freeze point of the HV coolant, HV coolant change history and ambient temperature when the DTC was set.

    5. Turn the power switch off.
