DIAGNOSIS CHART FOR DTC No. P0AA6-00
 
 
Inspection procedures when BMU P0AA6-00: Insulation Resistance Drop Detection Diagnosis is set.
caution
  • When the DTC is set in the PHEV-ECU, PHEV A/C amplifier, power drive unit, REMCU or On Board Charger (OBC)/DC-DC converter, perform troubleshooting for the DTC first.
  • By performing the inspection items shown in the table below, you can narrow down the trouble spot where the insulation resistance is declined in the high voltage circuit.
  • Perform the inspection items in order from (1), and take the necessary steps for the trouble spots corresponding to each judgment results.

(1) Confirm the timing of when DTC No. P0AA6-00 is set.
1. Open hood, back door, rear left side door or rear right side door. (After that, work in the open state until instructed.)
2. Change the power supply mode of the electric motor switch to OFF from ON condition, then wait for 3 minutes or more in key lock condition. (Check that the P indicator on the selector lever turns off.)
3. Connect the M.U.T.-IIISE with the power supply mode of the electric motor switch changed to OFF.
4. Change the power supply mode of the electric motor switch to ON (READY indicator: OFF).
5. On the system selection screen of the M.U.T.-IIISE, select "BMS".
6. Erase the DTC using self-diagnosis function.
7. Satisfy the confirmation conditions and confirmation time in the table below from the top, and check the timing of when the DTC No. P0AA6-00 is set again.

(2) Measure the voltage at the service plug connector.
dangerWhen servicing the high voltage system parts, always wear the specified protective gears, and shut off the high voltage by removing the service plug.
1. Remove the service plug from the service plug box (Refer to PRECAUTIONS ON HOW TO USE THE HIGH-VOLTAGE VEHICLE).
dangerDo not use the special tool electric insulation tester (MB992355) to measure the insulation resistance at the service plug connector. If used, the BMU may be damaged.
2. Measure the voltage between the following terminals on the service plug box assembly using a high voltage multimeter.
noteJudge by the voltage value after 1 minute or more has passed from the start of measurement.
