DTC Information: DTC Detecting Condition

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2024 Kia Sorento. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Item Detecting Condition Possible Cause
DTC Strategy
  • Comparing generator (HSG) RPM and engine RPM
  • Belt cut
  • Lack of belt tension
  • Abnormal belt installation
  • Contamination of belt (water, foreign material etc)
  • Faulty belt
  • Faulty HSG
Enable Condition Case 1
  • Ignition "ON"
  • HCU ready "ON"
  • No ECM and MCU fault
  • Auxiliary battery voltage (10 to 16V)
  • No CAN communication fault
  • Normal MCU/HSG
  • HSG cranking (Case 1, case 2)
Threshold Value Case 1
  • Belt slip condition (integrating)
  • Difference between engine speed and HSG correction speed is higher than 1000 RPM
  • If the summation of difference between engine speed and HSG correction speed is higher than 200000 RPM, the 1 counter increase (DTC will occur if the counter is higher than 100 times)
Case 2
  • Belt slip condition (continuously)
  • Difference between engine speed and HSG correction speed is higher than 500 RPM (according to engine coolants temperature)
Case 3
  • Belt breakage condition
  • Sum of difference between engine speed and HSG correction speed is higher than specific value (according to engine coolants temperature)
DTC Confirmation
  • 2 driving cycles
Service Lamp
  • Set
