СИСТЕМА УПРАВЛЕНИЯ ГИБРИДНОЙ СИСТЕМОЙ, Diagnostic DTC:P0A78-505, P0A78-806

DTC Code DTC Name
P0A78-505 Drive Motor "A" Inverter Performance
P0A78-806 Drive Motor "A" Inverter Performance

DESCRIPTION

For a description of the inverter Click here.

If the motor inverter overheats, has a circuit malfunction, or has an internal short, the inverter transmits this information to the MG ECU via the motor inverter fail signal line. If an abnormal amount of current flows through the motor inverter, the MG ECU detects it and sends a signal to inform the power management control ECU of the malfunction.

Tech Tips

The term "drive motor A" indicates motor (MG2).

DTC No. DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0A78-505

Motor inverter fail signal detection (overcurrent due to MG ECU malfunction)*

(1 trip detection logic)

 Inverter with converter assembly
P0A78-806

Abnormal motor (MG2) current value detection (MG ECU malfunction)*

(1 trip detection logic)

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:


  • Before inspecting the high-voltage system or disconnecting the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly, take safety precautions such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip to prevent electrical shocks. After removing the service plug grip, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.

  • After removing the service plug grip, wait for at least 10 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals. After waiting for 10 minutes, check the voltage at the terminals in the inspection point in the inverter with converter assembly. The voltage should be 0 V before beginning work Click here.

    Tech Tips

    Waiting for at least 10 minutes is required to discharge the high-voltage capacitor inside the inverter with converter assembly.

Note

After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work Click here.

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 5 seconds or more.

  2. Perform a road test according to the freeze frame data and item "Vehicle Spd" for approximately 10 minutes.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT (HYBRID CONTROL)


    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. Check for DTCs.

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      P0A78-202 is not output. A
      P0A78-202 is also output. B

      Note


      • If P0A78-202 is output, troubleshoot it first. After completing the troubleshooting for P0A78-202, perform troubleshooting for this DTC.

      • Parts repaired or replaced during troubleshooting for P0A78-202 do not need to be re-inspected in this diagnosis procedure.

    5. Turn the power switch off.
