Inspection Procedure

  1. CLEAR DTC (HV) 
    1. Turn the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
    3. Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/ MOBD / HV ECU / DTC INFO / CLEAR CODES.

      NEXT: Go to next step 

  2. RECONFIRM OUTPUT DTC (HV) 
    1. Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS / OBD/ MOBD / HV ECU / DTC INFO / CURRENT CODES.
    2. Read output DTC. (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR )

      Result: 

      DTC P3107-215 is output again. 

    YES: GO TO step   4 

    NO: Go to next step 

  3. CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS 

    NEXT: REPLACE AIR BAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY CENTER 

  4. INSPECT HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU 
    1. Connect the oscilloscope to the HV control ECU terminals specified in the table below and check the waveform.
