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. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
2. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 2 minutes or more.
3. Turn the ignition switch to ON and wait for 2 minutes or more. [*1]

   HINT:

   [*1]: Normal judgment procedure.

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

4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Motor Generator / Utility / All Readiness.
5. 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.

6.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL ECU - INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY)

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) Disconnect the inverter with converter assembly connector.

(c) Disconnect the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.

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

Standard Resistance (Check for Open):

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
A187-29 (HMCH) - A192-2 (HMCH)	Ignition switch off	Below 1 Ω
A187-30 (HMCL) - A192-1 (HMCL)	Ignition switch off	Below 1 Ω

Standard Resistance (Check for Short):

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
A187-29 (HMCH) or A192-2 (HMCH) - Body ground and other terminals	Ignition switch off	10 kΩ or higher
A187-30 (HMCL) or A192-1 (HMCL) - Body ground and other terminals	Ignition switch off	10 kΩ or higher

(e) Connect the cable to the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.

(f) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(g) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Voltage:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
A187-29 (HMCH) or A192-2 (HMCH) - Body ground and other terminals	Ignition switch ON	Below 1 V
A187-30 (HMCL) or A192-1 (HMCL) - Body ground and other terminals	Ignition switch ON	Below 1 V

NOTICE:

Turning the ignition switch to ON with the hybrid vehicle control ECU and inverter with converter assembly connectors disconnected causes other DTCs to be stored. Clear the DTCs after performing this inspection.

HINT:

As there might be an intermittent malfunction, inspect the following items even if the measured resistance is as specified.

Check that each connector between the inverter with converter assembly and hybrid vehicle control ECU is not loose or disconnected.

(h) Turn the ignition switch off.

(i) Reconnect the hybrid vehicle control ECU connector.

(j) Reconnect the inverter with converter assembly connector.
