Toyota Corolla Cross: Generator High-voltage Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The cause of this malfunction may be the generator high-voltage circuit.

Check the generator internal resistance and the connection condition of the high-voltage line between the inverter and generator to check whether there is an open or short circuit.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

This diagnostic procedure is referenced to in the diagnostic procedure of several DTCs.

If the result of this diagnostic procedure is normal, proceed as directed in the procedure for the DTC.

CAUTION:

Refer to the precautions before inspecting high voltage circuit.

PROCEDURE

CAUTION:

Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

(a) Check that the service plug grip is not installed.

NOTICE:

After removing the service plug grip, do not turn the ignition switch to ON (READY), unless instructed by the repair manual because this may cause a malfunction.

(b) Remove the inverter cover from the inverter with converter assembly.

(c) Check that the bolts for the motor cable are tightened to the specified torque, the generator cable is connected securely, and there are no contact problems. Specified Condition: T = 8.0 N*m (82 kgf*cm, 71 in.*lbf)

(d) Disconnect the motor cable from the inverter with converter assembly.

(e) Check for arc marks at the terminals for the motor cable.

(f) Reconnect the motor cable.

(g) Reinstall the inverter cover.

CAUTION:

Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

(a) Check that the service plug grip is not installed.

NOTICE:

After removing the service plug grip, do not turn the ignition switch to ON (READY), unless instructed by the repair manual because this may cause a malfunction.

(b) Remove the inverter cover from the inverter with converter assembly.

(c) Disconnect the motor cable from the inverter with converter assembly.

(d) Using a milliohmmeter, measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below. HINT: If the generator (MG1) temperature is high, the resistance will vary greatly from the specification. Therefore, measure the resistance at least 8 hours after the vehicle is stopped. Standard Resistance: Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition Y2-4 (W) - Y2-5 (U) Ignition switch off 41.5 to 47.9 mΩ [*1] Y2-5 (U) - Y2-6 (V) Ignition switch off 41.6 to 48.0 mΩ [*2] Y2-6 (V) - Y2-4 (W) Ignition switch off 41.8 to 48.1 mΩ [*3] HINT: To correct the variation of the measured resistance due to temperature, use the following formula to calculate the resistance at 20°C (68°F). R20 = Rt / {1 + 0.00393 X (T - 20)} The calculation is based on the following: R20: Resistance at 20°C (68°F) (mΩ) Rt: Measured resistance (mΩ) T: Temperature when the resistance is measured (°C)

(e) Check the difference in measured resistance values according to the table below.

Standard:

(f) Using a megohmmeter set to 500 V, measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

NOTICE:

Be sure to set the megohmmeter to 500 V when performing this test. Using a setting higher than 500 V can result in damage to the component being inspected.

Standard Resistance:

(g) Reconnect the motor cable.

(h) Reinstall the inverter cover.
