Diagnosis System [12/2018 - ]

The rear motor generator control ECU (MGR ECU) (hybrid motor control inverter assembly rear) has a self-diagnosis system. If the rear motor generator control ECU (MGR ECU), rear motor generator system or a component is not working properly, the ECU records the conditions that relate to the fault. The ECU also provides other appropriate messages on the multi-information display, such as the HV system warning message, HV battery warning message or discharge warning message.

Following is the description for storage of DTC using "2 trip detection logic". 

1. When a malfunction is first detected, the malfunction is temporarily stored in the motor generator control ECU memory (1st trip). If the same malfunction is detected during the next drive cycle, the MIL is illuminated (2nd trip).

1. The motor generator control ECU records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was moving or stationary, whether the engine was warmed up or not, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.

Standard Voltage

1. If voltage is below 11 V, recharge or replace the auxiliary battery.
   NOTE:

   After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

   Refer to PRECAUTION [12/2018 - 08/2019] , or refer to PRECAUTION [08/2019 - ]

1. The MIL is illuminated when the power switch is first turned on (IG), before the READY indicator illuminates.
2. When the READY indicator illuminates, the MIL should turn off. If the MIL remains illuminated, the diagnosis system has detected a malfunction or abnormality in a system.

   HINT: 

   If the MIL is not illuminated when the power switch is first turned on (IG), check the MIL circuit.

   for SFI System: Refer to MIL Circuit [11/2015 - ]

The inspection areas and outline of the inspection for each circuit are listed below.

• Each DTC diagnostic procedure for the hybrid control system consists of a combination of the various relevant system (circuit) inspections.
• When multiple DTCs are output, performing each diagnostic procedure in order of priority can lead to a more accurate diagnosis.

HINT: 

The "Example of Multiple DTCs being Output" below is only one example of a malfunction condition. Therefore, a determination should not be made based on this alone.

Example of Multiple DTCs being Output: 

1. The power supply of the microcomputer decreases while the vehicle is being driven.
   1. DTCs are detected and the vehicle behavior is as follows.

   Detected DTCs 

   • P06B3-1C (Drive Motor B" Control Module Position Sensor REF Power Source Circuit Voltage Out of Range): Power source malfunction*
   • P0A45-16 (Drive Motor B" Position Sensor Circuit Voltage Below Threshold): Sensor and actuator circuit malfunction*
   • P0C55-16 (Drive Motor B" Position Sensor Circuit "A" Circuit Voltage Below Threshold): Sensor and actuator circuit malfunction*
   • P1CAE-49 (Drive Motor B" Position Sensor Internal Electronic Failure): Sensor and actuator circuit malfunction*
     1. *: Check the priority level in the "DTC Order of Priority" chart above.

   Vehicle Behavior 

   1. AWD stopped
   2. System stopped
2. The inspection order of priority is: Microcomputer circuit → power source circuit → communication circuit → sensor and actuator circuit → system circuit. Therefore, check the repair procedure for P06B3-1C.
3. Follow the repair procedures and replace the hybrid motor control inverter assembly rear. Finish the repair.

It is possible to check only the specified malfunctioning parts without having to check irrelevant parts.
