DTC Descriptors

DTC P0D58
- Proximity Detection Circuit Low Voltage

DTC P0D59
- Proximity Detection Circuit High Voltage

Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

This diagnostic runs with the drive motor battery charger cable disconnected to verify the vehicle side circuit integrity. The hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2 uses a 5 V regulated signal through a 2700 ohms resistor to a low reference circuit in the battery charger to detect if the drive motor battery charger cable is attached.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The vehicle 12 V battery system voltage needs to be above 9 V.

* The charge port door is closed.

* Vehicle in Service Mode.

* No charge port door DTCs are set.
Or

* The vehicle 12 V battery system voltage needs to be above 9 V.

* The vehicle needs to be driven above 20 kph (15 mph) for more than 10 seconds.

* No vehicle speed DTCs are set.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC P0D58

The hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2 measures a voltage less than 4.2 V for 1 second.

DTC P0D59

The hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2 measures a voltage greater than 4.8 V for 1 second.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* DTC P0D58 and P0D59 are type A DTCs.

* Disable the high voltage battery charging.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTC P0D58 and P0D59 are type A DTCs.

Diagnostic Aids

Verify proper charge port door operation and diagnose any charge port door DTC prior to diagnosing DTC P0D58 or P0D59.

Circuit/System Testing

Danger: Always perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.


The High Voltage Disabling procedure includes the following steps:


* Identify how to disable high voltage.


* Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage.


* Identify condition under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.


Before working on any high voltage system, be sure to wear the following Personal Protection Equipment:


* Safety glasses with appropriate side shields when within 15 meters (50 feet) of the vehicle, either indoors or outdoors.


* Certified and up-to-date Class "0" Insulation gloves rated at 1000V with leather protectors.


- Visually and functionally inspect the gloves before use.


- Wear the Insulation gloves with leather protectors at all times when working with the high voltage battery assembly, whether the system is energized or not.


Failure to follow the procedures may result in serious injury or death.


1. Vehicle OFF, disable the high voltage at the T18 battery charger. Refer to High Voltage Disabling High Voltage Disabling. Disconnect the drive motor battery charger cable. Disconnect the harness connector at the X98 hybrid battery charger receptacle.

2. Test for less than 10 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal C and ground.

If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the T18 battery charger.

3. Test for 4.5-5.5 V between the signal circuit terminal D and ground.

If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K114B hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2.

If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K114B hybrid/EV powertrain control module 2.

4. If all circuits test normal, replace the X98 hybrid battery charger receptacle.
