DTC P0A93-346: Inverter Cooling System Performance: Procedure

  1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT (EV) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).
    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / EV / Trouble Codes.
    4. Check if DTCs related to the EV control system are output.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      Only P0A93-346 is output, or DTCs other than the ones in the table below are also output. A
      Any of the following DTCs are also output. B
      DTC No. Relevant Diagnosis
      P0A02-719 Motor Electronics Coolant Temperature Sensor Circuit Low
      P0A03-720 Motor Electronics Coolant Temperature Sensor Circuit High
      P0C73-776 Motor Electronics Coolant Pump "A" Control Performance
      P314A-828 Inverter Coolant Pump Speed Signal

      HINT: 

      P0A93-346 may be set due to a malfunction which also causes DTCs in the preceding table to be set. In this case, first troubleshoot the output DTCs in the preceding table. Then, perform a test to attempt to reproduce the problems, and check that no DTCs are output.

    5. Turn the power switch off.

    A: Go to next step 

  2. INSPECT VEHICLE EXTERIOR 
    1. Check that the front bumper does not have a cover, etc. installed which could block the grill and ducts.

      HINT: 

      • If the grill and ducts of the front bumper are blocked, the inverter coolant temperature could rise and cause this DTC to be output.
      • If a cover, etc. is found when inspecting the vehicle, explain the situation to the customer and then remove the cover after getting the customer's permission.
      • If no cover is found on the vehicle, interview the customer to determine whether or not a cover had been installed previously. If a cover had been installed previously, explain to the customer that the grill and ducts of the front bumper should not be blocked.

  3. CHECK CONNECTOR CONNECTION CONDITION (INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY CONNECTOR). Refer to  PROCEDURE - Step 7 

    NG → CONNECT SECURELY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK QUANTITY OF EV COOLANT. Refer to  PROCEDURE - Step 3 

    B → ADD EV COOLANT 

    C → REPAIR COOLANT LEAK AND ADD COOLANT 

    A: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK COOLANT HOSE. Refer to  PROCEDURE - Step 4 

    NG → CORRECT THE PROBLEM 

    OK: Go to next step 

  6. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (ELECTRIC COOLING FAN). Refer to  PROCEDURE - Step 5 

    NG → See step   13 

    OK: Go to next step 

  7. READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (DATA LIST) 
    1. Turn the power switch off and leave the vehicle for at least 1 hour.
    2. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    3. Turn the power switch on (IG).
    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / EV / Data List.
    5. Select "Inverter Coolant Water Temperature" and "Motor Inverter Temperature" in the Data List.
    6. Read the Data List.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      The difference between "Inverter Coolant Water Temperature" value and "Motor Inverter Temperature" value is smaller than 20°C (36°F) A
      The difference between "Inverter Coolant Water Temperature" value and "Motor Inverter Temperature" value is 20°C (36°F) or more. B
    7. Turn the power switch off.

    B → See step   11 

    A: Go to next step 

  8. CHECK COOLANT (CHECK FOR CONDITIONS THAT MAY HAVE CAUSED FREEZING). Refer to  PROCEDURE - Step 6 

    B → See step   10 

    A: Go to next step 

  9. REPLACE COOLANT. Refer to  PROCEDURE - Step 7 

    NEXT → END 

  10. REPLACE WATER PUMP WITH MOTOR ASSEMBLY. Refer to  COMPONENTS 
  11. REPLACE INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY. Refer to  COMPONENTS 
  12. GO TO DTC CHART (HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM). Refer to  DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART 
  13. CHECK COOLING FAN SYSTEM. Refer to  Cooling Fan Circuit
