Malfunction of PHEV-ECU
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools
MB991223: Wiring harness set
MB992006: Extra fine probe
STEP 1. Check SAVE/CHARGE mode switch
Refer to GROUP 22A - Selector Lever
.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 2
.
Replace the Shift indicator panel assembly (Refer to GROUP 22A - Selector Lever
).
STEP 2. Check the ground line for open circuit (SAVE/CHARGE mode switch and body ground).
(1)
Disconnect the SAVE/CHARGE mode switch connector.
(2)
Take the measurements below at the SAVE/CHARGE mode switch wiring harness side connector.
Continuity SW1- terminal between SAVE/CHARGE mode switch wiring harness side connector and body ground.
OK: Continuity (less than 2 Ω)
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 3
.
Repair the connector or wiring harness.
STEP 3. Check the signal line for open and short circuit (PHEV-ECU and the SAVE/CHARGE mode switch).
(1)
Take the measurements below at the SAVE/CHARGE mode switch wiring harness side connector.
Continuity SVCH terminal between PHEV-ECU wiring harness side connector and body ground.
OK: No continuity
Continuity SVCH terminal between PHEV-ECU wiring harness side connector and SAVE/CHARGE mode switch wiring harness side connector.
OK: Continuity (less than 2 Ω)
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4
.
Repair the connector or wiring harness.
STEP 4. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), check the data list. <PHEV-ECU>
Check the input signals from the SAVE/CHARGE mode switch.
Operate the SAVE/CHARGE mode switch.
