DESCRIPTION
The inverter activation signal is sent to the compressor with motor assembly from the power management control ECU. Compressor control is stopped and the DTC is stored if there is an open or short in the signal circuit.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| B1473/73 | Open or short in A/C inverter start-up signal system. |

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Wear electrically insulated gloves and pull out the service plug grip before inspection as procedures may require disconnecting high-voltage connectors. Be sure to carry the removed service plug grip because other workers may install it by mistake.
Do not touch the high-voltage connectors or terminals for 10 minutes after the service plug grip is removed.
The hybrid control system and air conditioning system output DTCs separately. Inspect DTCs following the diagnostic procedure for the hybrid control system first if any DTCs from those systems are output simultaneously.
PROCEDURE
