The cause of the malfunction may be the low-voltage circuit.
Check whether there is an open circuit in the inverter +B low-voltage power source system or a problem in the communication between the hybrid vehicle control ECU and inverter.
| Area | Inspection |
|---|---|
| Inverter +B low-voltage power source system check | Check for inverter overcurrent malfunction. |
| Communication malfunction between hybrid vehicle control ECU and MG-ECU inside inverter with converter assembly | Check for inverter overcurrent malfunction due to communication malfunction. |
| Check for short to ground in inverter +B low-voltage power source system | - |
This diagnostic procedure is referenced to in the diagnostic procedure of several DTCs.
If the result of this diagnostic procedure is normal, proceed as directed in the procedure for the DTC.
Refer to the precautions before inspecting high voltage circuit.
After the ignition switch is turned off, there may be a waiting time before disconnecting the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
When disconnecting and reconnecting the auxiliary battery
When disconnecting and reconnecting the auxiliary battery, there is an automatic learning function that completes learning when the respective system is used.
Remove the PCU NO. 1 fuse from the No. 1 engine room relay block and No. 1 junction block assembly.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
|---|---|---|
| PCU NO. 1 fuse | Always | Below 1 Ω |
Install the PCU NO. 1 fuse.

Be sure to wear insulated gloves.
Check that the service plug grip is not installed.
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.
Disconnect the inverter with converter assembly connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
|---|---|---|
| A192-4 (GND1) - Body ground | Ignition switch off | Below 1 Ω |
| A192-12 (GND2) - Body ground | Ignition switch off | Below 1 Ω |
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.
| Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
|---|---|---|
| A192-1 (IGC1) - Body ground | Ignition switch ON | Same as auxiliary battery voltage |
| A192-9 (IGC2) - Body ground | Ignition switch ON | Same as auxiliary battery voltage |
Turning the ignition switch to ON with the inverter with converter assembly connector disconnected causes other DTCs to be stored. Clear the DTCs after performing this inspection.
Turn the ignition switch off.
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal and wait for 2 minutes or more.
Reconnect the inverter with converter assembly connector.
