Yes
- Go To 3
No
- Replace the High Voltage Battery Pack in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to BATTERY, HIGH-VOLTAGE, REMOVAL .
- Perform the BATTERY PACK CONTROL MODULE (BPCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BPCM VERIFICATION TEST .
- Review the vehicles service history.
- CHECK THE VOLTAGE OF THE (H397) BATTERY CONTACTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT
- Turn the ignition off. Remove the key from the Ignition Switch, close the doors and allow the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) to shut down.NOTE:
Allow up to two minutes for the EVCU to shut down. Opening the vehicle door will interrupt the shut down process.
- Disconnect the High Voltage Battery Pack C3 low voltage harness connector.
- Measure the voltage between ground and the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit at the High Voltage Battery Pack C3 low voltage harness connector.
- Turn the ignition on.
Is the voltage above 5.0 volts?
Yes
- Go To 4
No
- Go To 5
- Turn the ignition off. Remove the key from the Ignition Switch, close the doors and allow the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) to shut down.
- CHECK THE (H397) BATTERY CONTACTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Turn the ignition off. Remove the key from the Ignition Switch, close the doors and allow the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) to shut down.NOTE:
Allow up to two minutes for the EVCU to shut down. Opening the vehicle door will interrupt the shut down process.
- Disconnect the EVCU C2 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance between the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit and all other circuits at the High Voltage Battery Pack C3 low voltage harness connector.
Is the resistance above 10k Ohms between the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit and all other circuits?
Yes
- Replace the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to UNIT, ELECTRIC VEHICLE CONTROL (EVCU), REMOVAL .
- Perform the BATTERY PACK CONTROL MODULE (BPCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BPCM VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Repair the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit for a short to the circuit that measured below 10k Ohms.
- Perform the BATTERY PACK CONTROL MODULE (BPCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BPCM VERIFICATION TEST .
- Turn the ignition off. Remove the key from the Ignition Switch, close the doors and allow the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) to shut down.
- CHECK THE (H397) BATTERY CONTACTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Turn the ignition off. Remove the key from the Ignition Switch, close the doors and allow the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) to shut down.NOTE:
Allow up to two minutes for the EVCU to shut down. Opening the vehicle door will interrupt the shut down process.
- Disconnect the EVCU C2 harness connector.
- Measure the resistance of the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit between the EVCU C2 harness connector and the High Voltage Battery Pack C3 low voltage harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?
Yes
- Go To 6
No
- Repair the open in the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit.
- Perform the BATTERY PACK CONTROL MODULE (BPCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BPCM VERIFICATION TEST .
- Turn the ignition off. Remove the key from the Ignition Switch, close the doors and allow the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) to shut down.
- CHECK THE (H397) BATTERY CONTACTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit in the EVCU C2 harness connector.
Is the resistance above 10k Ohms?
Yes
- Replace the Electric Vehicle Control Unit (EVCU) in accordance with the Service Information. Refer to UNIT, ELECTRIC VEHICLE CONTROL (EVCU), REMOVAL .
- Perform the BATTERY PACK CONTROL MODULE (BPCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BPCM VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Repair the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the BATTERY PACK CONTROL MODULE (BPCM) VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to BPCM VERIFICATION TEST .
- Measure the resistance between ground and the (H397) Battery Contactor Control circuit in the EVCU C2 harness connector.
