Inverter With Converter: Removal

CAUTION:
  • When working on high voltage systems, always wear insulating gloves.
  • Keep the removed service plug in your pocket to prevent other technicians from reconnecting it while you are servicing the vehicle.
  • After removing the service plug grip, do not touch the high voltage connectors and terminals for 5 minutes.
NOTE: After removing the service plug grip, do not operate the power switch as it may damage the hybrid vehicle control ECU.
  1. PRECAUTION 
    CAUTION: The hybrid system uses high voltage circuits, so improper handling could cause an electric shock or leakage. During service (including installation/ removal, inspection and replacement of parts), be sure to follow the procedures (see PRECAUTION ).

  20. VERIFY THAT VOLTAGE OF INVERTER WITH CONVERTER IS 0 V 
    CAUTION: Wear insulating gloves.
    1. Using a voltmeter, measure the voltage of the high voltage DC line.

      Standard voltage: 0 V 

      HINT:

      Use a measuring range of DC 400 V or more on the voltmeter.
