DESCRIPTION
The power management control ECU alerts the driver and performs fail-safe control based on error signals received from the battery smart unit. This DTC is stored when the SOC (state of charge) of the HV battery starts to drop as a result of leaving the shift lever in N, running out of fuel, or a malfunction in the hybrid control system.
| DTC No. | INF Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|---|
| P3000 | 388 | Discharge inhibition control malfunction |

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Tech Tips
If the vehicle is stopped or parked with the shift lever in N for a long time, DTC P3000-388 may be stored because the HV battery cannot be charged.
When the engine cannot be started, DTC P3000-388 may be stored because the HV battery cannot be charged.
Repeated engine start checks may cause the SOC to drop, resulting in DTC P3000-388 being stored. In this case, charge the HV battery using the THS charger.
Cranking the engine once causes the SOC to drop approximately 1%.
Charging the HV battery once (10 minutes) using the THS charger restores the SOC approximately 2%.
Charging the HV battery using the THS charger takes approximately 10 minutes when the battery temperature is 25°C (77°F) or approximately 30 minutes when the battery temperature is 0°C (32°F).
The THS charger is a supplemental charging device that enables the engine to start (READY-on state).
PROCEDURE

CHECK ENGINE START
Turn the power switch on (READY).
Check if the engine starts.
Tech Tips
Depressing the accelerator pedal with the shift lever in P will cause the engine to start.
Turning the power switch on (READY) and off repeatedly while the SOC is low may cause the SOC to drop further, resulting in DTC P3000-389 being stored. Charge the HV battery using the THS charger as necessary.
Cranking the engine once causes the SOC to drop approximately 1%.
Charging the HV battery once (10 minutes) using the THS charger restores the SOC approximately 2%.
