Fig 1: Sensor Output Graph (When MPI Module Temperature Is More With Power Save Mode)
G08568588

When the motor power inverter (MPI) module temperature is a specified value or more in the power save mode, the MPI module temperature decreases if the MPI module cooling system is normal. The MPI module temperature sensor stuck failure is detected by comparing the MPI module temperature decrease over a specified time to a specified value. If the change in MPI module temperature is a specified value within a set time, a malfunction is detected and a DTC is stored.
