DTC P0A93-346: Inverter Cooling System Performance [10/2014 - 10/2015]: Description

The inverter converts the high-voltage direct current of the HV battery into alternating current for MG1 and MG2. The inverter generates heat during the conversion process. Therefore, the inverter is cooled by a special cooling system consisting of the inverter water pump assembly, the cooling fan, and a radiator. This cooling system is independent of the engine cooling system. The power management control ECU monitors the inverter water pump assembly, cooling fan and cooling system, and detects malfunctions.
