P3222

DTC P3222-313 Generator Inverter Temperature Sensor Circuit High / Low
DTC P3223-312 Generator Inverter Temperature Sensor Circuit High

DESCRIPTION

DTC Detection Condition:




The HV control ECU uses a temperature sensor, which is built into the inverter, to detect the temperature of the generator inverter. The same cooling system that is routed to the MG1 and MG2 cools the inverter.

This cooling system is independent from the engine cooling system.

The characteristic of the generator inverter temperature sensor is the same as the boost converter temperature sensor.

The HV control ECU limits the load based on the signals transmitted by the generator inverter temperature sensor, in order to check the effectiveness of the inverter cooling system and prevent the inverter from overheating. Furthermore, the HV control ECU detects a malfunction in the wiring of the generator inverter temperature sensor, as well as in the sensor itself.






HINT: After confirming DTC P3222 (INF 313) or P3223 (INF 312), confirm MG1 INVERT TEMP in DIAGNOSIS / OBD/MOBD / HV ECU / DATA LIST using the intelligent tester.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:
- Before inspecting the high-voltage system, take safety precautions to prevent electrical shocks, such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip. After removing the service plug grip, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from reconnecting it while you are servicing the high-voltage system.
- After disconnecting the service plug grip, wait for at least 5 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals.


HINT: At least 5 minutes are required to discharge the high-voltage condenser inside the inverter.
