6. | CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU - INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY) |
CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
(a) Check that the service plug grip is not installed.
NOTICE:
After removing the service plug grip, do not turn the ignition switch to ON (READY), unless instructed by the repair manual because this may cause a malfunction.
(b) Disconnect the inverter with converter assembly connector.
(c) Disconnect the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
(d) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance (Check for Open):
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
A187-29 (HMCH) - A192-2 (HMCH) |
Ignition switch off |
Below 1 Ω |
A187-30 (HMCL) - A192-1 (HMCL) |
Ignition switch off |
Below 1 Ω |
Standard Resistance (Check for Short):
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
A187-29 (HMCH) or A192-2 (HMCH) - Body ground and other terminals |
Ignition switch off |
10 kΩ or higher |
A187-30 (HMCL) or A192-1 (HMCL) - Body ground and other terminals |
Ignition switch off |
10 kΩ or higher |
(e) Connect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
(f) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(g) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Voltage:
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
A187-29 (HMCH) or A192-2 (HMCH) - Body ground and other terminals |
Ignition switch ON |
Below 1 V |
A187-30 (HMCL) or A192-1 (HMCL) - Body ground and other terminals |
Ignition switch ON |
Below 1 V |
NOTICE:
Turning the ignition switch to ON with the hybrid vehicle control ECU and inverter with converter assembly connectors disconnected causes other DTCs to be stored. Clear the DTCs after performing this inspection.
HINT:
As there might be an intermittent malfunction, inspect the following items even if the measured resistance is as specified.
Check that each connector between the inverter with converter assembly and hybrid vehicle control ECU is not loose or disconnected.
(h) Turn the ignition switch off.
(i) Reconnect the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
(j) Reconnect the inverter with converter assembly connector.
NG | REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
|
7. | CHECK INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY |
(a) Disconnect the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition |
Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
A192-2 (HMCH) - A192-1 (HMCL) |
Ignition switch off |
80 to 170 Ω |
(c) Reconnect the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.
OK | REPLACE HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU |
NG | REPLACE INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY |
