  1. DESCRIPTION 
    1. The HV control ECU has a self-diagnosis system. If the computer, hybrid vehicle control system or the components are not working properly, the ECU carries out a diagnosis to detect the malfunction, and illuminates the master warning lamp in the combination meter together with any of indicators on the multi-information display, the HV system warning, the HV battery warning or the discharge warning.

    HINT:

    The master warning lamp illuminates when THS II fails and it blinks when in inspection mode.
