P0AC2-123 - Hybrid Battery Pack Current Sensor "A" Circuit High

DESCRIPTION

- The battery current sensor, which is located in the HV battery junction block assembly on the positive side of the HV battery, detects the amperage that flows to and from the HV battery. The battery smart unit receives a voltage of between 0 and 5 V that is in proportion to the amperage flowing in the cable. This voltage goes into the IB terminal from the battery current sensor. A battery current sensor output voltage below 2.5 V indicates that the HV battery is being discharged, and a voltage above 2.5 V indicates that the HV battery is being charged. The hybrid vehicle control ECU determines the amount of either charge or discharge amperage of the HV battery based on the signals that are input to terminal IB of the battery smart unit from the battery current sensor. The hybrid vehicle control ECU also calculates the SOC (state of charge) of the HV battery based on the accumulated amperage.









MONITOR DESCRIPTION

If the battery smart unit detects a malfunction in the battery current sensor, the hybrid vehicle control ECU illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:
- Before inspecting the high-voltage system, take safety precautions such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip to prevent electrical shocks. After removing the service plug grip, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.
- After disconnecting the service plug grip, wait for at least 10 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals. After waiting for 10 minutes, check the voltage at the terminals in the inspection point in the inverter with converter assembly. The voltage should be 0 V before beginning work.
HINT
Waiting for at least 10 minutes is required to discharge the high-voltage capacitor inside the inverter with converter assembly.

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK FOR DTCS (DTC P0A1F-123 IS OUTPUT)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the power switch on (IG).

(c) Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.

(d) Check if DTCs are output.

Result





B -- GO TO DTC CHART (P0A1F-123) Hybrid Battery System
A -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY SMART UNIT - BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR)

CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

(a) Remove the HV battery Removal.

(b) Disconnect the z87 battery smart unit connector.

HINT
For the removal and installation procedures related to the battery smart unit connector inspection, Removal.

(c) Disconnect the z39 HV battery junction block assembly (battery current sensor) connector.

HINT
For the removal and installation procedures related to the HV battery junction block assembly (battery current sensor) connector inspection, Removal.

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





Standard Resistance (Check for open):





Standard Resistance (Check for short):





(e) Reconnect the z87 battery smart unit connector.

(f) Reconnect the z39 HV battery junction block assembly (battery current sensor) connector.

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK BATTERY SMART UNIT (VIB VOLTAGE)

CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

(a) Place the HV battery in the vehicle so that measurements can be made at the battery smart unit connector.





NOTICE:
Make sure all the covers are installed to the HV battery when placing it in the vehicle, and then remove the covers again after the HV battery is in place.

HINT
- Follow the installation procedures to the point where the HV battery is set in the vehicle Installation.
- Do not install the service plug grip.

(b) Reconnect all the connectors that were disconnected when the HV battery was removed.

(c) Turn the power switch on (IG).

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

Standard Voltage:





HINT
If the power switch is turned on (IG) with the service plug grip removed, DTC P0A0D-350 for the interlock switch system will be set. If this DTC is output, clear the DTC using the Techstream Hybrid Battery System.

NG -- REPLACE BATTERY SMART UNIT Removal
OK -- Continue to next step.

4. CHECK BATTERY SMART UNIT (BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR VOLTAGE)

CAUTION:
Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

(a) Turn the power switch on (IG).





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

Standard Voltage:





HINT
If the power switch is turned on (IG) with the service plug grip removed, DTC P0A0D-350 for the interlock switch system will be set. If this DTC is output, clear the DTC using the Techstream Hybrid Battery System.

NG -- REPLACE HV BATTERY JUNCTION BLOCK ASSEMBLY Removal

OK -- REPLACE BATTERY SMART UNIT Removal
