P0A94-585 - DC / DC Converter Performance





HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL: HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM: P0A94-585: DC / DC Converter Performance
P0A94-585 - DC / DC Converter Performance

DESCRIPTION

The MG ECU uses a voltage sensor that is built into the boost converter to detect pre-boost high voltage (VL) to allow boost control. The boost converter voltage sensor outputs a voltage that varies between 0 and 5 V in accordance with changes in pre-boost voltage (VL). The higher the pre-boost voltage, the higher the sensor output voltage. Conversely, the lower the pre-boost voltage, the lower the output voltage. The MG ECU monitors the boost converter voltage sensor signal line and detects a malfunction.





MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The hybrid vehicle control ECU monitors the boost converter voltage sensor signal. If the hybrid vehicle control ECU detects an abnormality in the sensor signal, the hybrid vehicle control ECU will illuminate the MIL and set a DTC.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT (HV)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

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

(c) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.

(d) Check if DTCs are output.

Result:









HINT
- *1: If any INF codes are output for this DTC, refer to the corresponding diagnostic procedure.
- P0A94-585 may be output due to a malfunction which causes the DTCs in the table above to be output. In this case, first troubleshoot the output DTCs in the table above. Then, perform a reproduction test to check that no DTCs are output.
(e) Turn the power switch off.
