Inspection Procedure
- Before inspecting the high-voltage system, take safety precautions to prevent electrical shocks, such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip. After removing the service plug grip, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.
- After disconnecting the service plug grip, wait for at least 5 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals.
HINT:
At least 5 minutes is required to discharge the high-voltage capacitor inside the w/ converter inverter assembly.
- READ OUTPUT DTC (HV)
- Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
- Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/ MOBD / HV ECU / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.
- Read output DTCs. (See
DTC CHECK / CLEAR
)
Result: The DTCs shown in the table below are output

- Turning the ignition switch to the ON position with the service plug grip and inverter cover removed causes interlock switch system DTC P0A0D-350 to be output.
- P0A78-287 and P0A78-505 may be output due to a malfunction which causes the DTCs in the table above to be output. In this case, first troubleshoot the output DTCs in the table above. Then, perform a reproduction test to check that no DTCs are output.
YES: GO TO DTC CHART
NO: Go to next step
- CHECK CONNECTION CONDITION OF HV CONTROL ECU CONNECTOR (LOOSENESS AND POOR CONTACT)
- Check the connections of the HV control ECU connectors.
OK: Connectors are connected securely and there is no poor connection.
NG: CONNECT SECURELY
OK: Go to next step
- Check the connections of the HV control ECU connectors.
- CHECK CONNECTION CONDITION OF MG ECU CONNECTOR (LOOSENESS AND POOR CONTACT) CAUTION: Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
- Turn the ignition switch off and remove the service plug grip. (See
HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM
)NOTE: Do not put the vehicle into the READY-on state with the service plug grip removed as this may cause a malfunction.
- Remove the inverter cover. (See
INVERTER WITH CONVERTER
)NOTE:
- Wrap the interlock round terminal for the inverter cover with vinyl tape to prevent it from shorting to ground.
- Prevent water in the reservoir tank from entering the inverter.
- Removing the inverter cover causes the MG ECU board to be exposed. Therefore, temporarily install the inverter cover for each area to be inspected.
- Check the connections of the MG ECU connectors.
OK: Connectors are connected securely and there is no poor connection.
NG: CONNECT SECURELY
OK: Go to next step
- Turn the ignition switch off and remove the service plug grip. (See
HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM
)
- INSPECT W/ CONVERTER INVERTER ASSEMBLY CAUTION: Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
- Check that the service plug grip is removed.
- Check that the bolts for the three-phase AC cable for Motor are tightened to the specified torque.
Torque: 10 N*m (102 kgf*cm, 7 ft.*lbf)
NG: TIGHTEN THEM TO SPECIFIED TORQUE
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT HYBRID VEHICLE TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY (MOTOR) CAUTION: Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
- Check that the service plug grip is removed.
- Disconnect the three-phase AC cable of the HV Motor from the w/ converter inverter assembly.
- Move the shift lever to the N position and lift up the vehicle.
- Using a milliohmmeter, measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
TESTER CONNECTION AND SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Specified Condition U - V 48 to 59 mΩ or less (20°C) V - W 48 to 59 mΩ or less (20°C) W - U 48 to S9 mΩ or less (20°C) NOTE: If the Motor temperature is too high, the resistance varies greatly. Therefore, measure the resistance at least 8 hours after the vehicle is stopped. - To correct the resistance varying depending on the temperature, use the following formula to calculate the resistance at 20°C.
HINT:
- R20 = Rt / {1 + 0.00393 X (T - 20)}
- R20: Resistance at 20°C ( mΩ)
- Rt: Measured resistance ( mΩ)
- T: Temperature when the resistance is measured (°C)
- Calculate the difference between the maximum and minimum resistance.
Standard Resistance: Difference is 5 mΩ or less
- Using a megohmmeter, measure the insulation resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.NOTE: Be sure to set the megohmmeter to 500 V when performing this test. Using a setting higher than 500 V can result in damage to the component being inspected.
