Engine Coolant Pump Circuit Short to Ground or Open

The operation duty ratio (WPO) of the monitoring inverter water pump with motor assembly becomes a certain amount or less when the inverter water pump with motor assembly operation command is output (1 trip detection logic).

  • Open or short in inverter water pump with motor assembly circuit
  • Inverter water pump with motor assembly
  • ECM

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM outputs an operation duty signal (WPO) to steplessly control the speed of the inverter water pump with motor assembly. The ECM outputs an operation duty signal (WPO) to the inverter water pump with motor assembly and monitors the actual duty signal (WPO) being output. When the operation duty signal (WPO) is being output to the inverter water pump with motor assembly and the actual operation duty signal (WPO) is a certain value or less, the ECM detects a malfunction and stores a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

HINT:

  • 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.

    Click here

  • When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.

    Click here

  1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  3. Turn the GTS on.
  4. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  5. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
  6. Turn the ignition switch to ON [A].
  7. Turn the GTS on.
  8. Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).

    Click here

  9. Start the engine and maintain the engine speed at 2500 rpm or more for at least 40 seconds [B].
  10. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [C].
  11. Read the pending DTCs.

    HINT:

    • If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    • If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
  12. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
  13. Input the DTC: P26CA14.
  14. Check the DTC judgment result.

    GTS Display

    Description

    NORMAL

    • DTC judgment completed
    • System normal

    ABNORMAL

    • DTC judgment completed
    • System abnormal

    INCOMPLETE

    • DTC judgment not completed
    • Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions

    HINT:

    • If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
    • If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE, perform steps [B] through [C] again.
    • [A] to [C]: Normal judgment procedure.

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

    • When clearing the permanent DTCs, do not disconnect the cable from the auxiliary battery terminal or attempt to clear the DTCs during this procedure, as doing so will clear the universal trip and normal judgment histories.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
  • Vehicle Control History may be stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly if the engine is malfunctioning. Certain vehicle condition information is recorded when Vehicle Control History is stored. Reading the vehicle conditions recorded in both the freeze frame data and Vehicle Control History can be useful for troubleshooting.

    Click here

    (Select Powertrain in Health Check and then check the time stamp data.)

  • If any "Engine Malfunction" Vehicle Control History item has been stored in the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly, make sure to clear it. However, as all Vehicle Control History items are cleared simultaneously, if any Vehicle Control History items other than "Engine Malfunction" are stored, make sure to perform any troubleshooting for them before clearing Vehicle Control History.

HINT:

Read Freeze Frame Data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE

1.

INSPECT ECM (INTERNAL CIRCUIT)

*a

Front view of wire harness connector

(to Inverter Water Pump with Motor Assembly)

(a) Disconnect the inverter water pump with motor assembly connector.

(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(c) Perform the Active Test using the GTS.

Powertrain > Engine > Active Test

Tester Display

Activate the Electric Water Pump

(d) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard:

Tester Connection

Condition

Specified Condition

C131-3 (SWP) - Body ground

During Active Test

Resistance fluctuates*

HINT:

  • *: When the connector of the inverter water pump with motor assembly is disconnected, the ECM will enter fail-safe mode. When the ECM is in fail-safe mode, a continuous duty signal will be output and the resistance will fluctuate as the transistor inside the ECM is turned on an off.
  • If the resistance fluctuates while the ECM is in fail-safe mode after the connector of the inverter water pump with motor assembly is disconnected, it can be determined that the transistor is operating.
  • If the transistor does not operate, the ECM may be malfunctioning.
  • If the resistance fluctuates after turning the ignition switch to ON, it can be determined that the ECM is in fail-safe mode.
