W/Harness Inspection

HEV Battery System
P1B70 High Voltage Battery Voltage Too Low - Inspection/Repair:_:W/Harness Inspection

Terminal & Connector Inspection

1. Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals.
Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
2. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
3. Has a problem been found ?






Hybrid Battery 72 cell voltage inspection

Hybrid Battery 72 cell voltage inspection
1. Ignition ON (SSB LED "BLUE"), with GDS in "Current Data", view each of the 72 "Battery Cell Voltage" fields. Record any battery cell numbers above 4.8V.
2. Remove Safety Switch and wait 5 minutes.
3. Check looseness between battery module assembly and BMS ECU, Poor connection, Bent, corrosion, contamination, deformation and damage. If necessary, repair or replace as necessary then, go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
4. After checking "Current Data", confirm that battery cell voltage going to the BMS ECU is really under 1.5V by measuring rear side of the BMS connector.
- If measured cell voltage is lower than 1.5V :
Check whether it is open in the each cell wire goes to the BMS ECU from High Voltage battery.
If it is open, repair or replace as necessary, then, go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" Procedure.
- If measured cell voltage is still under 1.5V after checking, repairing and replacing the wires,then, it is necessary to replace the battery pack assembly (that means battery over discharge status)
- If measured cell voltage is higher than 1.5V, this DTC came from BMS ECU itself problem or a history DTC.Go ro "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

Specification :Battery Cell Voltage ragne with No DTC : 1.5 - 4.8V
Hybrid Battey 50 - 60% (State of Charge) : Approx. 3.75V
** Notice : It is very difficult to judge whether it is good or not only with battery cell voltage in the specific charging status. Because voltage will be changable in operating temperature according to SOC, voltage, temperature and current.

WARNING:
** Warning & Notice
Hybrid Battery system uses around 270V voltage.
It may cause death or damage due to electrical shock, if you do not follow below Instructions.
▪ Follows instructions of workshop manual.
▪ Wear and use insulated glooves and tools.
▪ IG "OFF", Disconnect ground cable of auxiliary battery and "OFF" the safety connector of the high voltage battery.
▪ Check high voltage terminal on Power Relay Assembly is lower than 30V.
▪ Be careful that it should not be short between terminals when measuring battery cell voltage. You may be injured due to spark, parts damage or electrical shock.
▪ Metalic material cause high voltage short that may cause damage of life or vehicle. Therefore, get rid of all the metalic material before working. (Metalic Material : Watch, Ring, any metalic products etc.)
▪ After disconnect W/H goes to BMS ECU from High voltage battery, be careful not to happen short between exposed terminal and terminal on high voltage connector.

Inspection with Analysis of Current Data
1. Ignition ON/Hybrid Ready (Cluster Indicator "READY" On), check "Current Data".
2. Check "Hybrid battery pack voltage" and "1 - 72 battery cell voltage" in current data while engine ON or EV mode with acceleration.
