DESCRIPTION
The HV battery uses nickel metal-hydride batteries and does not require external charging. The power management control ECU controls the SOC (state of charge) of the HV battery at a constant level during driving. The HV battery is composed of 40 modules, and each module consists of six 1.2 V cells in series. The battery smart unit monitors battery block voltage at 20 locations. Each battery block is composed of 2 modules in a set.
| DTC No. | INF Code | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|---|
| P0A80 | 123 | Difference in voltage between battery blocks is larger than the standard (2 trip detection) |
|
Tech Tips
P0A80-123 will not be set unless the vehicle is driven for approximately 10 minutes after clearing the DTC.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CHECK FREEZE FRAME DATA
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.
Read output DTCs.
Using the GTS, make a note of the freeze frame data item "Battery Block Vol -V01 to V20".
Compare the freeze frame data item "Battery Block Vol -V01 to V20" values with those shown in the following combination tables.
| Circuit A Battery Block | Circuit B Battery Block | Condition |
|---|---|---|
