L110F HYBRID VEHICLE CONTROL: HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM: P0A94-589, P0A94-590: DC / DC Converter Performance
P0A94-590 - 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 MG ECU monitors the boost converter voltage sensor signal line and detects malfunctions.





MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The MG ECU monitors the boost converter voltage (VL) sensor circuit. If the MG ECU detects an open or short circuit malfunction of the VL sensor circuit, the hybrid vehicle control ECU will illuminate the MIL and set a DTC.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN





1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

2. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).

4. Turn the power switch off.

5. Turn the power switch on (READY), and then after a few seconds, turn the power switch off. [A]

6. Repeat [A] 3 times. [B]

7. Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

8. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes. [C]

9. Check that the permanent DTCs are cleared.

10. If the permanent DTCs are not cleared, perform the universal trip, and then check for permanent DTCs again.

HINT
- If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
- If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. REPLACE INVERTER WITH CONVERTER ASSEMBLY

(a) Replace the inverter with converter assembly Installation.

HINT
The boost converter voltage (VL) sensor is connected to the MG ECU inside the inverter with converter assembly. If P0A94-589 or P0A94-590 is output, replace the inverter with converter assembly.
