MALFUNCTION DESCRIPTION
The hybrid vehicle control ECU detects a VL sensor malfunction.
The cause of this malfunction may be one of the following:
Voltage sensor malfunction
Motor generator control ECU (MG ECU) malfunction
Communication (wire harness) malfunction
Inverter with converter assembly malfunction
Refer to the description for DTC P0E3116.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Warning Indicate | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P0E311C | Boosting Converter Voltage Sensor "A" Voltage Out of Range | Boost converter voltage (VL) sensor performance malfunction:
When not boosting, difference between "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and "Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage" is large and difference between "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" is large. (1 trip detection logic) |
Inverter with converter assembly | Comes on | Master Warning:
Comes on |
SAE Code:
P0E32 |
The hybrid vehicle control ECU monitors the boost converter voltage sensor signal. If the hybrid vehicle control ECU detects an abnormality in the sensor signal, the hybrid vehicle control ECU will illuminate the MIL and store a DTC.

After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 2 minutes or more.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Turn the ignition switch to ON (READY). [*1]
With the shift lever in D, depress both the accelerator pedal and brake pedal at the same time to raise the "Hybrid/EV Battery SOC" to a sufficient level. [*2]
Move the shift lever to P, check that the engine is stopped and move the shift lever to N. [*3]
Set the A/C for maximum cooling. [*4]
Leave the vehicle for a few minutes. [*5]
When the accelerator pedal is not depressed with the ignition switch ON (READY) and shift lever in P, if "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and the "Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage" is approximately the same after repair, the condition is judged as normal.
[*1] to [*5] : Normal judgment procedure.
The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Utility / All Readiness.
Check the DTC judgment result.
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE, perform the normal judgment procedure again.
P0E311C may be output as a result of the malfunction indicated by the DTCs in table below.
The chart above is listed in inspection order of priority.
Check DTCs that are output at the same time by following the listed order. (The main cause of the malfunction can be determined without performing unnecessary inspections.)
