Removal and Installation
WARNING:
- Because hybrid vehicles and electric vehicles contain a high voltage battery, there is the risk of electric shock, electric leakage, or similar accidents if the high voltage component and vehicle are handled incorrectly. Be sure to follow the correct work procedures when performing inspection and maintenance.
- Be sure to remove the service plug in order to disconnect the high voltage circuits before performing inspection or maintenance of high voltage system harnesses and parts.
- To prevent the removed service plug from being connected by mistake during the procedure, always carry it in your pocket or put it in the tool box.
- Be sure to wear insulating protective equipment consisting of glove, shoes, face shield and glasses before beginning work on the high voltage system.
- Clearly identify the persons responsible for high voltage work and ensure that other persons do not touch the vehicle. When not working, cover high voltage parts with an insulating cover sheet or similar item to prevent other persons from contacting them.
- Refer to "High Voltage Precautions" High Voltage Precautions.
CAUTION:
There is the possibility of a malfunction occurring if the vehicle is changed to READY status while the service plug is removed. Therefore do not change the vehicle to READY status unless instructed to do so in the Service Manual.
REMOVAL
WARNING:
Disconnect high voltage. Refer to "How to Disconnect High Voltage" Service and Repair.
1.Check voltage in high voltage circuit. (Check that condenser are discharged.)
a.Lift up the vehicle and remove the Li-ion battery under covers. Refer to "Removal and Installation" Service and Repair (without Li-ion battery heater models), "Removal and Installation" Service and Repair (with Li-ion battery heater models).
b.Disconnect high voltage harness connector from front side of Li-ion battery. Refer to "Removal and Installation" Service and Repair (without Li-ion battery heater models), "Removal and Installation" Service and Repair (with Li-ion battery heater models).
c.Measure voltage between high voltage harness connector terminals.
DANGER:
Touching high voltage components without using the appropriate protective equipment will cause electrocution.
Standard: 5 V or less
CAUTION:
For voltage measurements, use a tester which can measure to 500 V or higher.
2.Remove radiator upper grille. Refer to "RADIATOR CORE SUPPORT UPPER : Removal and Installation" Radiator Core Support Upper.
3.Remove quick charge port connector (1) inside motor room.
WARNING:
-To prevent electric shock hazards, be sure to put on insulating protective gear before beginning work on the high voltage system.
- Protect the terminals of disconnected high voltage harness connector with insulation tape so that they are not exposed.
4.Remove connector clip (A), and then remove interlock detecting circuit connector.
WARNING:
To prevent electric shock hazards, be sure to put on insulating protective gear before beginning work on the high voltage system.
5.Remove quick charge port mounting bolts, and pull quick charge port out from front of vehicle to remove it.
WARNING:
To prevent electric shock hazards, be sure to put on insulating protective gear before beginning work on the high voltage system.
INSTALLATION
To install, pay attention to the following and follow procedure for removal in reverse order.
CAUTION:
Be sure to reinstall high voltage harness clips in their original positions. If a clip is damaged, replace it with a new clip before installing.
Harness Protector Installation Procedure
Set the protector at the position (A), wind vinyl tape for wire harness around (B) in the manner of half-lap to fix the harness protector.
