| Terms | Definition |
|---|---|
| Monitor Description | Description of what the plug-in charge control ECU assembly monitors and how to detects malfunctions (monitoring purpose and its details). |
| Related DTCs | A group of diagnostic trouble codes that are output by the plug-in charge control ECU assembly based on the same malfunction detection logic. |
| Typical Enabling Condition | Preconditions that allow the plug-in charge control ECU assembly to detect malfunctions. With all preconditions satisfied, the plug-in charge control ECU assembly sets DTCs when the monitored value(s) exceeds malfunction threshold(s). |
| Sequence of Operation | Order of monitor priority, applied if multiple sensors and components are involved in a single malfunction detection process. Each sensor and component are monitored in turn and subsequent items are not monitored until the previous detection operation completes. |
| Required Sensor/Components | Sensors and components used by the plug-in charge control ECU assembly to detect each malfunction. |
| Frequency of Operation | Number of times the plug-in charge control ECU assembly checks for each malfunction during each driving cycle. "Once per driving cycle" means that the plug-in charge control ECU assembly only checks for malfunctions once during a single driving cycle. "Continuous" means that the plug-in charge control ECU assembly checks for malfunctions whenever enabling conditions are met. |
| Duration | Minimum time for which the plug-in charge control ECU assembly must detect continuous deviation in monitored value(s) in order to set a DTC. Timing begins when typical enabling conditions are met. |
| Malfunction Thresholds | Value beyond which the plug-in charge control ECU assembly determines malfunctions exist and sets DTCs. |
| MIL Operation | Timing of MIL illumination after a malfunction is detected. "Immediate" means that the plug-in charge control ECU assembly illuminates the MIL as soon as a malfunction is detected. "2 driving cycles" means that the plug-in charge control ECU assembly illuminates the MIL if the same malfunction is detected again during the next driving cycle. |
