INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Note

If DTC P0A78-284, 286, P0A7A-322, 324, P0A94-553 or 557 is output, replace the inverter with converter assembly after this inspection.

Tech Tips


  • When an overvoltage condition in the auxiliary battery voltage occurs due to receiving external assistance, etc., control may be stopped temporarily and this DTC may be output due to the self-protection function of the inverter water pump with motor assembly. (When there is no longer an overvoltage condition in the auxiliary battery voltage, control resumes. Therefore, it is not necessary to replace the inverter water pump with motor assembly.)

  • 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 (when the power switch is turned on (READY), the inverter water pump with motor assembly operates).

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK QUANTITY OF HV COOLANT


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

    2. Check for HV 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
      HV coolant leaks are evident. C

      Note

      The inverter water pump with motor assembly has a protection function that activates when there is an HV coolant leak. Therefore, it is not necessary to replace the inverter water pump with motor assembly unless the cause of the HV coolant leak is the inverter water pump with motor assembly.

      Tech Tips

      After repairing the HV coolant leaks and adding coolant, perform the "(Inverter) " 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.

    OK
  3. READ VALUE USING GTS (INVERTER W/P REVOLUTION)

    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 with motor assembly may not operate.

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


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Data List / Inverter W/P Revolution.

    4. Read the Data List.

      Inverter W/P Revolution Power switch on (IG) 625 rpm or less

      Tech Tips

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

    5. Turn the power switch off.


    NG
    OK
  4. CLEAR DTC


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

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

    4. Read and record the DTCs and freeze frame data.

    5. Clear the DTCs and freeze frame data.

    6. Turn the power switch off.

  5. READ VALUE USING GTS (ACTIVATE THE (INVERTER) 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 with motor assembly may not operate.


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

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

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

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

      Result
      Tester Display Switch Condition Specified Condition
      Inverter W/P Revolution Power switch on (IG) 2375 to 5750 rpm

      Tech Tips


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

      • When the inverter water pump with motor 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.


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


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

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

    4. Read the freeze frame data item Ambient Temperature using the GTS.

    5. Check if the freeze frame data item Ambient Temperature is below the freezing temperature of the HV coolant.

      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 HV water pump, the coolant temperature in the inverter with converter assembly rises because the HV coolant cannot circulate. As a result, a DTC may be stored.

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

      • If a DTC is stored 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 stored.

    6. Turn the power switch off.
