A/C Inverter Cooling / Heating System Malfunction

A/C inverter temperature outside specified range (temperature too high) or open or short to ground in temperature sensor circuit

  • Cooling fan system
  • Refrigerant volume
  • Compressor with motor assembly

Memorized

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

  • Before inspecting the high-voltage system, take safety precautions such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip to prevent electrical shocks. After removing the service plug grip, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.
  • Do not touch the high-voltage connectors or terminals for 10 minutes after the service plug grip is removed.

NOTICE:

  • After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

  • The hybrid control system and air conditioning system output DTCs separately. Perform troubleshooting for the hybrid control system first if DTCs for both systems are output simultaneously.
  • The air conditioning system uses the CAN communication system. Inspect the communication functions by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. Troubleshoot the air conditioning system after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.
