- Verify that DTC P1AE7 is not set.
- If the DTC is set, refer to DTC P1AE6 or P1AE7 .
- Verify that DTCs P0A78, P0A79, P0BFD, P0BFE, P0C01, or P0C04 is not set.
- If any of the DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle .
- Ignition ON, engine OFF, observe the scan tool battery energy control module contactor system status parameter. The status should display closed.
- If not the specified value, refer to Symptoms - Hybrid ControlsΒ .
- Hood closed, transmission in park, and Ignition OFF for at least 2 minutes.
- Ignition ON, engine OFF, within 5 seconds of ignition ON, observe the hybrid powertrain control module 300V Circuit parameter and compare it to both data parameters listed below. Each motor parameter should be within 20 V of the hybrid powertrain control module 300 V circuit parameter.
- Motor 1 Isolation Voltage
- Motor 2 Isolation Voltage
- If only one Motor Isolation Voltage value is not within the specified range, replace the drive motor generator power inverter control module.
- If both Motor Isolation Voltage values are not within the specified range, refer to DC Circuit Testing in Circuit/System Testing.
- If both Motor Isolation Voltage values are within the indicated range, a loss of isolation condition is not currently present, refer to AC Circuit Testing in Circuit/System Testing.
