Title: HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL: MOTOR GENERATOR CONTROL SYSTEM (for LITHIUM-ION BATTERY with PA10): P0A2A11,P0A2A15; Drive Motor "A" Temperature Sensor Circuit Short to Ground; 2023 - 2025 MY Corolla HV [09/2022 -        ]

DTC

P0A2A11

Drive Motor "A" Temperature Sensor Circuit Short to Ground

DTC

P0A2A15

Drive Motor "A" Temperature Sensor Circuit Short to Auxiliary Battery or Open

DTC SUMMARY

MALFUNCTION DESCRIPTION

These DTCs are stored when the motor temperature sensor output is abnormal. The cause of this malfunction may be one of the following:

Motor generator control ECU (MG ECU) malfunction

  • Motor generator control ECU (MG ECU) internal malfunction

Motor temperature sensor malfunction

  • Internal motor temperature sensor malfunction
  • Open or short in motor temperature sensor

Wire harness between the motor temperature sensor and motor generator control ECU (MG ECU)

  • The connectors are not connected properly
  • Foreign matter or water on the connector terminals
  • Open or short in wire harness

HINT:

If any of these DTCs are stored, the motor temperature sensor is malfunctioning and the self-protection function may not operate. Therefore under certain high load driving condition, the temperature of the motor (MG2) becomes high. If the self-protection function does not operate, the motor (MG2) may malfunction and cause the vehicle to enter fail-safe mode.

DESCRIPTION

The resistance of the thermistor built into the motor temperature sensor changes in accordance with changes in the motor (MG2) temperature. The lower the motor (MG2) temperature, the higher the thermistor resistance. Conversely, the higher the motor (MG2) temperature, the lower the resistance.

HINT:

The term "drive motor A" indicates the motor (MG2).

DTC No.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

HINT:

  • After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.

    Click here 2023 - 2025 MY Corolla HV [09/2022 -        ]; HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL: MOTOR GENERATOR CONTROL SYSTEM (for LITHIUM-ION BATTERY with PA10): UTILITY

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

    Click here 2023 - 2025 MY Corolla HV [09/2022 -        ]; HYBRID / BATTERY CONTROL: MOTOR GENERATOR CONTROL SYSTEM (for LITHIUM-ION BATTERY with PA10): DTC CHECK / CLEAR

  1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS 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 GTS on.
  6. With ignition switch ON 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.
