Title: HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL: HYBRID CONTROL SYSTEM (for NICKEL METAL HYDRIDE BATTERY): Pattern Select Switch EV Mode Circuit; 2018 - 2024 MY Camry HV [07/2017 - ]

Pattern Select Switch EV Mode Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The EV drive mode signal will be sent to the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly when the EV drive mode switch (electric parking brake switch assembly) is operated. If the specified conditions are met, the system enters EV drive mode and the vehicle will be driven using EV drive mode. This signal is then transmitted from the hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly via CAN to the combination meter assembly to illuminate the EV drive mode indicator.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Depending on the condition of the hybrid control system and the driving conditions, the drive mode may not be able to be changed to EV mode and a warning message will be displayed on the multi-information display.

HINT:

Under the following conditions, the drive mode will not be able to be changed to EV mode:

The hybrid control system is extremely hot.
The hybrid control system is extremely cold.
The engine is warming up.
The SOC (State of Charge) of the HV battery is low.
The vehicle is being driven at a speed higher than the specified value.
- The vehicle speed is approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) or higher.
The accelerator pedal is being fully depressed or the vehicle is climbing a slope.
The defroster is on.
DTCs are stored.

PROCEDURE

1.	ASK ABOUT VEHICLE CONDITION

(a) Check if a buzzer sounded and a message was displayed on the multi-information display when attempting to enter EV drive mode.

Result	Proceed to
No buzzer sounded and no message was displayed on multi-information display.	A
A buzzer sounded and a message was displayed on multi-information display.	B

HINT:

If a buzzer sounds or a message is displayed on the multi-information display, one or more of the EV drive mode entry conditions have not been met. Check that all of the EV drive mode entry conditions have been met before pressing the EV drive mode switch.
