HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL  HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM  P0A361C  Generator Temperature Sensor Voltage Out of Range  P0A361F  Generator Temperature Sensor Circuit Intermittent  


DTC SUMMARY

MALFUNCTION DESCRIPTION


These DTCs are stored when the generator temperature sensor output is abnormal. The cause of this malfunction may be one of the following:

Hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly malfunction
·

Hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly internal malfunction


Generator temperature sensor malfunction
·

Internal generator temperature sensor malfunction

·

Open or short in generator temperature sensor


Wire harness between the generator temperature sensor and hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly
·

The connectors are not connected properly

·

Foreign matter or water on the connector terminals

·

Open or short in wire harness


HINT:

If any of these DTCs are stored, the generator temperature sensor is malfunctioning and the self-protection function may not operate. Therefore under certain high load driving condition, the temperature of the generator (MG1) becomes high. If the self-protection function does not operate, the generator (MG1) may malfunction and cause the vehicle to enter fail-safe mode.

DTC P0A361C
1.

Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

2.

Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.

3.

Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).

4.

Turn the power switch off.

5.

Leave the vehicle as is for 5 hours or more and then check the values of the Data List items "Generator Temperature", "Motor Temperature" and "Inverter Coolant Water Temperature". [*1]

6.

Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on. [*2]

HINT:

[*1] to [*2]: Normal judgment procedure.

The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.


7.

Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Utility / All Readiness.

8.

Check the DTC judgment result.

HINT:
·

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.
