   HINT: 

   • P0AA373 may be output as a result of the malfunction indicated by the DTCs above.
     1. The chart above is listed in inspection order of priority.
     2. Check DTCs that are output at the same time by following the listed order. (The main cause of the malfunction can be determined without performing unnecessary inspections.)
5. Turn the power switch off.

1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
2. Turn the power switch on (IG).
3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.
4. Read the freeze frame data of DTC P0AA373.

   Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Trouble Codes 

   NOTE:

   As freeze frame data is stored immediately before and after a DTC is stored, make sure to only read the values for the moment the DTC was stored ("0(s)").

   Result

   Result	Proceed to
   Difference between "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" is less than 76 V.	A
   Difference between "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" is 76 V or more.	B

   HINT: 

   If VH-Voltage after Boosting is output even when an off command is being sent to the system main relay (positive side), P0AA373 is output. If the difference between the "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and the "VH-Voltage after Boosting" is large, it is determined that there is an inverter (VH sensor) malfunction.

5. Turn the power switch off.

4. Disconnect the 2 HV battery high voltage connectors from the HV battery junction block assembly.
   NOTE:

   Insulate each disconnected high-voltage connector with insulating tape. Wrap the connector from the wire harness side to the end of the connector.

5. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

   Standard Resistance (for 2WD)

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   W3-1 (CEI) - z17-1 (-)	Power switch off	10 kΩ or higher

   Standard Resistance (for AWD)

   Tester Connection	Switch Condition	Specified Condition
   Y7-1 (CEI) - z17-1 (-)	Power switch off	10 kΩ or higher

   HINT: 

   • If a system main relay is stuck closed, inspect the HV battery junction block assembly without removing it from the vehicle, in order to keep the relay closed.
   • If the result of reading the freeze frame data is A, the HV battery junction block assembly must be replaced. Measuring resistance can determine that this is either a present or past malfunction.
