DTC P0AA6 (59)

DTC P0AA6 (59):  HV Battery Voltage System Isolation Fault

General Description 

GHH415027Courtesy of HONDA, U.S.A., INC.

There are high voltage parts, including the battery pack, in the electric powertrain system. The high voltage part is insulated from the body on both positive and negative circuits. The battery condition monitor module A detects decreases in the insulation resistance (short circuit resistance), and if the resistance drops to a specified resistance (short circuit resistance), a malfunction is detected and a DTC is stored.

Monitor Execution, Sequence, Duration, DTC Type 

Execution Continuous
Sequence None
Duration -
DTC Type One drive cycle, MIL off, POWER SYSTEM indicator on, 12 volt battery charging system indicator off

Enable Conditions 

Condition  
Main contactor ON
Vehicle condition Vehicle ON mode, or Plug-in charge off, or Plug-in quick charge off

Malfunction Threshold 

The short circuit resistance value is 369 kΩ or less for at least 700 milliseconds.

Possible Cause 

NOTE: The causes shown may not be a complete list of all potential problems, and it is possible that there may be other causes.
  • Motor power cable short to ground
  • Battery charger internal failure
  • Inverter internal failure
  • DC-DC converter internal failure
  • Battery pack internal failure
  • Motor failure
  • Contactor failure
  • Electric A/C compressor internal failure
  • Battery condition monitor module A internal failure

Confirmation Procedure 

Operating Condition 

Turn the vehicle to the ON mode, and wait at least 30 seconds.

With the HDS 

None.

Diagnosis Details 

Conditions for setting the DTC 

When a malfunction is detected, the POWER SYSTEM indicator comes on and a Pending DTC, a Confirmed DTC, and the freeze data are stored in the battery condition monitor module A memory.

Conditions for clearing the DTC 

The POWER SYSTEM indicator is cleared if the malfunction does not return in the next trip in which the diagnostic runs. The POWER SYSTEM indicator, the Pending DTC, the Confirmed DTC, and the freeze data can be cleared with the scan tool Clear command.
