Generator Resolver Circuit [08/2023 - ]: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2025 Lexus RX 450h+ and 2024 Lexus RX 450h+. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HYBRID MOTOR CONTROL INVERTER ASSEMBLY - GENERATOR RESOLVER) 
    WARNING:

    Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

    Pre-procedure1

    • Check that the service plug grip is not installed.
      NOTE:

      After removing the service plug grip, do not turn the ignition switch to ON (READY), unless instructed by the appropriate service information because this may cause a malfunction.

    • Disconnect the hybrid motor control inverter assembly connector.

    • Connect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
    • Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    • Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition Result
      B81-8 (GRF) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V V
      B81-9 (GRFG) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V V
      B81-10 (GSN) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V V
      B81-11 (GSNG) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V V
      B81-13 (GCS) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V V
      B81-12 (GCSG) - Body ground Ignition switch ON Below 1 V V
      NOTE:

      Turning the ignition switch to ON with the hybrid motor control inverter assembly disconnected causes other DTCs to be stored. Clear the DTCs after performing this inspection.

    Post-procedure1

    • Turn the ignition switch off.
    • Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal and wait for 2 minutes or more.
    • Reconnect the hybrid motor control inverter assembly connector.

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK GENERATOR RESOLVER 
    WARNING:

    Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

    Pre-procedure1

    • Check that the service plug grip is not installed.
      NOTE:

      After removing the service plug grip, do not turn the ignition switch to ON (READY), unless instructed by the appropriate service information because this may cause a malfunction.

    • Disconnect the hybrid motor control inverter assembly connector.

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

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition Result
      B81-8 (GRF) - B81-9 (GRFG) Ignition switch off 8.9 to 14.8 Ω Ω
      B81-10 (GSN) - B81-11 (GSNG) Ignition switch off 22.6 to 34.5 Ω Ω
      B81-13 (GCS) - B81-12 (GCSG) Ignition switch off 25.5 to 37.4 Ω Ω

      HINT: 

      To correct the variation of the measured resistance due to temperature, use the following formula to calculate the resistance at 20°C (68°F).

      R20 = Rt / {1 + 0.00393 X (T - 20)}

      The calculation is based on the following:

      R20: Resistance at 20°C (68°F) (mΩ)

      Rt: Measured resistance (mΩ)

      T: Temperature when the resistance is measured (°C (°F).)

      Standard Resistance (Check for Short)

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition Result
      B81-8 (GRF) or B81-9 (GRFG) - Body ground and other terminals Ignition switch off 1 MΩ or higher
      B81-10 (GSN) or B81-11 (GSNG) - Body ground and other terminals Ignition switch off 1 MΩ or higher
      B81-13 (GCS) or B81-12 (GCSG) - Body ground and other terminals Ignition switch off 1 MΩ or higher
      B81-7 (DRN3) - Other terminals Ignition switch off 1 MΩ or higher

    See step  3

  3. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION (RESOLVER CONNECTOR) 
    1. Check the connection condition of the resolver connector and the contact pressure of each terminal. Check the terminals for deformation, and check the connector for water ingress and foreign matter.

      HINT: 

      Refer to ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT INSPECTION PROCEDURE [10/2022 - ]

      OK

      - The connector is connected securely.

      - The terminals are not deformed and are connected securely.

      - No water or foreign matter in the connector.
