STOP AND START SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P33B300

DTC Code DTC Name
P33B300 External BBC Circuit

DESCRIPTION

When the engine is started (high electrical load) from engine stopped by the stop and start control, the external backup boost converter (eco run vehicle converter assembly) supplements battery voltage in order to prevent the function from being disabled due to decrease in power source voltage supplied to the navigation system.

After receiving a request from the engine stop and start ECU, the external backup boost converter (eco run vehicle converter assembly) helps maintain the power source voltage if the battery voltage drops due to the high electrical load when the engine is restarted by stop and start control. The DON2 terminal of the external backup boost converter (eco run vehicle converter assembly) receives power supply voltage supplement requests from the engine stop and start ECU and switches from idle mode to supplement mode.

When the engine is started by the stop and start control, if the external backup boost converter (eco run vehicle converter assembly) does not maintain the specified voltage, an error is sent to the engine stop and start ECU. Then, the engine stop and start ECU stores DTC P33B300, and the stop and start cancel indicator blinks.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN


  1. CONFIRMATION AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING

    Tech Tips


    • If the cable is disconnected from the battery terminal, stop and start control is prohibited until refresh charge is completed.

      In this case, let the vehicle idle to complete the refresh charge. The refresh charge is complete when the Data List item Status of Battery Charge Control changes from "Refresh Charge Mode". (Usually, idling the engine for 5 to 60 minutes with the battery fluid temperature at 11°C (52°F) or higher, the refresh charge will be completed.)

    • If the GTS is not available and the Data List item Status of Battery Charge Control cannot be checked, charge the battery by idling the engine for approximately 5 to 60 minutes or driving the vehicle, and then drive the vehicle and check that stop and start control operates.

      If the engine is started with the hood open, the system determines that a jump start has occurred. Therefore, make sure that the hood is closed before starting the engine and driving the vehicle.

    • After the refresh charge completes, turn the engine switch off, wait for at least 30 seconds, and then start the engine again. If the vehicle enters refresh charge mode again while the engine is idling, the initial refresh charge did not properly complete, so wait for the refresh charge to complete.

    • Allow the engine to idle for 3 minutes after it is warmed up and check that the engine idle speed is within 50 rpm of the target idle speed.


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Clear the DTCs.


      Powertrain > Stop and Start > Clear DTCs

    5. Start the engine and warm it up.

    6. Drive the vehicle at 7 km/h (4.3 mph) or more.

      CAUTION:

      When performing Confirmation Driving Pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

    7. Depress the brake pedal and stop the vehicle.

    8. Keep the engine stopped by stop and start control for 1 second or more. (Keep the shift lever in D.)

    9. Release the brake pedal with the shift lever in D to start the engine.

      Tech Tips

      If the engine cranks slowly when the engine is restarted, it can be determined that the battery voltage is low.

    10. Check that DTCs are not output.


      Powertrain > Stop and Start > Clear DTCs

  2. STOP AND START SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK

    Tech Tips


    • If the cable is disconnected from the battery terminal, stop and start control is prohibited until refresh charge is completed.

      In this case, let the vehicle idle to complete the refresh charge. The refresh charge is complete when the Data List item Status of Battery Charge Control changes from "Refresh Charge Mode". (Usually, idling the engine for 5 to 60 minutes with the battery fluid temperature at 11°C (52°F) or higher, the refresh charge will be completed.)

    • After the refresh charge completes, turn the engine switch off, wait for at least 30 seconds, and then start the engine again. If the vehicle enters refresh charge mode again while the engine is idling, the initial refresh charge did not properly complete, so wait for the refresh charge to complete.


    1. Start the engine and warm it up.

    2. Turn the air conditioning system off.

    3. Drive the vehicle at 7 km/h (4.3 mph) or more.

      CAUTION:

      When performing Confirmation Driving Pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

    4. Depress the brake pedal and stop the vehicle.

    5. Allow the engine to stop by stop and start control. (Keep the shift lever in D.)

    6. Release the brake pedal with the shift lever in D to start the engine.

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.

Tech Tips


  • DTCs for the stop and start system are not cleared even if the malfunction has been repaired. After repairing the malfunction, be sure to clear the DTCs.

PROCEDURE


  1. CONFIRM FREEZE FRAME DATA (STATE OF EXTERNAL BBC)

    Note

    Clearing the DTC will also clear the freeze frame data, so before clearing be sure to record the freeze frame data.


    1. Following the display on the GTS, check the freeze frame data and read "State of External BBC" in the freeze frame data when P33B300 was output.
