Title: HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL: MOTOR GENERATOR CONTROL SYSTEM (for LITHIUM-ION BATTERY): P0E3116,P0E3117,P0E311F; DC/DC Converter Voltage Sensor "A"(VL) Circuit Voltage Below Threshold; 2020 - 2024 MY RAV4 HV [06/2020 -        ]

DTC

P0E3116

DC/DC Converter Voltage Sensor "A"(VL) Circuit Voltage Below Threshold

DTC

P0E3117

DC/DC Converter Voltage Sensor "A"(VL) Circuit Voltage Above Threshold

DTC

P0E311F

DC/DC Converter Voltage Sensor "A"(VL) Circuit Intermittent

DESCRIPTION

The motor generator control ECU, which is built into the inverter with converter assembly, detects pre-boosting high voltage (VL) using the voltage sensor in the boost converter to control boosting. The motor generator control ECU also monitors the boost converter voltage sensor signal line and detects malfunctions.

DTC No.

  • When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.

    Click here 2020 - 2024 MY RAV4 HV [06/2020 -        ]; HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL: MOTOR GENERATOR CONTROL SYSTEM (for LITHIUM-ION BATTERY): DTC CHECK / CLEAR

  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the Techstream on.
  3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  4. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 2 minutes or more.
  5. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the Techstream on.
  6. Turn the ignition switch to ON (READY) and wait for 5 seconds or more. [*1]

    HINT:

    [*1]: Normal judgment procedure.

    The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.

  7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Motor Generator / Utility / All Readiness.
  8. Check the DTC judgment result.

    HINT:

    • If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
    • If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE, perform the normal judgment procedure again.

PROCEDURE

1.
