DTC Code DTC Name
P0A1A-200 Generator Control Module
P0A1A-792 Generator Control Module
P0A1A-793 Generator Control Module

DESCRIPTION

The MG ECU located in the inverter with converter assembly monitors its internal operation and detects the following malfunctions.

DTC No. INF Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
P0A1A 200 The difference between the resolver angle for control and estimated resolver angle exceeds the allowable value.

  • Inverter with converter assembly

  • Hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly

  • Wire harness or connector
792 Resolver REF signal cycle error
793 Resolver REF signal oscillation stop error

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The MG ECU performs many diagnostic tests to verify proper operation of internal ECU systems. In this diagnostic monitor, the MG ECU checks for an R/D (Resolver/Digital Converter) malfunction involving the generator resolver. If MG ECU detects an R/D error, it will conclude that there is an internal malfunction involving the generator resolver. The power management control ECU will illuminate the MIL and set a DTC.

  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

  2. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

  3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).

  4. Turn the power switch off.

  5. Turn the power switch on (READY) and allow MG2 to rotate at 50 rpm or more for 30 seconds, then turn the power switch off. [A]

  6. Repeat [A] 3 times. [B]

  7. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

  8. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes. [C]

  9. Check that permanent DTCs are cleared.

  10. If the permanent DTCs are not cleared, perform the universal trip, and then check for permanent DTCs again.

Tech Tips

  • If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.

  • If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.

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.

PROCEDURE

  1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT (HYBRID CONTROL)

    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

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

    4. Check if DTCs are output.

  2. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION (INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY CONNECTOR)

    CAUTION:

    Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

    1. Check that the service plug grip is not installed.

      Note

      After removing the service plug grip, do not turn the power switch on (READY), unless instructed by the repair manual because this may cause a malfunction.

    2. Check the connector connections and contact pressure of the low voltage connectors of the inverter with converter assembly Click here.

      Note

      Before disconnecting the connector, confirm that it is properly connected by checking that the locking claws are engaged and that the connector does not pull out.

      A011XKAE01
      OK
      The connectors are connected securely and there are no contact pressure problems.

      Tech Tips

      When connecting the connector, insert it with the locking lever in the raised position. Rotate the lever downward and make sure that the connector is pulled into its socket. When the locking lever is in its fully closed position, a click will be heard as its locking claws engage. After the click is heard, pull up on the connector to confirm that it is properly connected.
