HINT:

*1: The insulation malfunction detection circuit in the battery ECU assembly monitors the insulation resistance between the high voltage circuits and body. If the insulation resistance decreases, the hybrid vehicle control ECU stores DTC P0AA649 and illuminates the master warning light first regardless of malfunction area.
Depending on the vehicle condition, the high voltage circuit insulation resistance may return to normal. So if DTC P0AA649 outputs, complete the following steps as soon as possible.
*2: If the following operations are performed within the same trip after DTC P0AA649 is stored, just one of the related DTCs (P1C7C49, P1C7D49, P1C7E49 or P1C7F49) will be stored.
1. Apply the parking brake firmly.
2. Wait for 1 minute or more with the vehicle stopped, the brake pedal firmly depressed, the power switch on (READY), shift lever in D and the air conditioning system on (Lo/MAX COOL, blower speed HI).
3. Turn the power switch off and wait for 2 minutes or more.
  HINT:
  - DTCs and freeze frame data are useful information in determining the malfunctioning part. Before performing diagnosis, make sure to check and make a note of all output DTCs and freeze frame data. (Even if a high-voltage insulation malfunction cannot be reproduced, once stored, DTCs of insulation will not be cleared unless the clear operation is performed.)
  - When the insulation resistance of the HV battery area decreases and the power switch is turned on (IG), DTC P1C7D49 is stored within 2 minutes.
When measuring insulation resistance using a megohmmeter, measure the resistance while jiggling the high voltage wire harness.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

HINT:

If a decrease in insulation resistance cannot be confirmed using a megohmmeter, check "Short Wave Highest Value Level" in the Data List.

SHORT WAVE HIGHEST VALUE LEVEL

(a) "Short Wave Highest Value Level" shows a decrease in insulation resistance. When insulation resistance decreases, "Insulation Lower" will be displayed. However, even though the insulation resistance of the vehicle is normal, "Short Wave Highest Value Level" may decrease, so that "Not Judge" will be displayed for any of the following conditions.

Within approximately 1 minute since the power switch was turned on (IG).
When the system voltages ("Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage", "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and "VH-Voltage after Boosting") are changing.
During boosting. If the Data List item "Boost Ratio" is not 0% or within a few seconds of it becoming 0%. (The values of "Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage", "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" are about the same when not boosting.)
When "No" is displayed for any of the following Data List items:
- Short Wave Highest Value Availability just after MG Inv On/Off

- Short Wave Highest Value Availability just after A/C Inv On/Off

- Short Wave Highest Value Availability just after SMR On/Off

(b) When "Short Wave Highest Value Level" shows "Insulation Lower LV3", insulation resistance will be close to 0 Ω. In this case, damage to a high-voltage cable or hybrid component (high-voltage), or a short to body ground due to intrusion of foreign matter, such as metal particles, can be suspected.

If problem symptoms cannot be reproduced and a malfunction still exists after replacing a part as instructed, checking the following freeze frame data can help determine a trouble area.

Items to be Checked Using Freeze Frame Data:

Freeze Frame Data	Diagnostic Note
Short Wave Highest Value Level	Indicates that the insulation resistance has decreased.
VL-Voltage before Boosting VH-Voltage after Boosting Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage Boost Ratio	During boosting (when "Boost Ratio" is not 0%), or when "VL-Voltage before Boosting", "VH-Voltage after Boosting" or "Hybrid/EV Battery Voltage" is varying, "Short Wave Highest Value Level" may decrease even though the insulation resistance is normal.
SMRP Status SMRB Status SMRG Status	When "SMRP Status", "SMRB Status" and "SMRG Status" are all OFF, the insulation malfunction detection circuit detects a decrease in insulation resistance in the HV battery area ((*d) in the wiring diagram). Example: When the power switch is turned on (IG) (not on (READY)), all 3 system main relays are off and it is suspected that the HV battery assembly is disconnected from the high voltage circuits. If "Short Wave Highest Value Level" decreases a few minutes after the power switch is turned on (IG) (not on (READY)), the HV battery assembly may have an insulation malfunction.
Motor Inverter Shutdown Status	When "Motor Inverter Shutdown Status" is ON, the insulation malfunction detection circuit cannot detect a decrease in insulation resistance in the motor system AC (alternating current) section (motor (MG2) side of (*e) in the wiring diagram). The motor system AC (alternating current) section includes the motor (MG2) in the hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly, motor cables and the AC (alternating current) section of the motor drive circuit in the inverter with converter assembly.
Generator Inverter Shutdown Status	When "Generator Inverter Shutdown Status" is ON, the insulation malfunction detection circuit cannot detect a decrease in insulation resistance in the generator system AC (alternating current) section (generator (MG1) side of (*e) in the wiring diagram). The generator system AC (alternating current) section includes the generator (MG1) in the hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly, generator cables and the AC (alternating current) section of the generator drive circuit in the inverter with converter assembly.
A/C Consumption Power	The compressor with motor assembly AC (alternating current) section ((*c) in the wiring diagram) includes the air conditioning motor, wiring between the air conditioning motor and air conditioning inverter, and the AC (alternating current) section of the air conditioning motor drive circuit in the air conditioning inverter. With the vehicle stopped, turn on/off the air conditioning system and observe "Short Wave Highest Value Level" to use as a diagnosis reference.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

When troubleshooting DTC P0AA649, use either a tool wrapped with vinyl insulation tape or an insulated tool. (It is extremely dangerous when a high-voltage charge passes through a non-insulated tool causing a short.)
Before the following operations are conducted, take precautions to prevent electric shock by turning the power switch off, wearing insulated gloves, and removing the service plug grip from HV battery.
- Inspecting the high-voltage system
- Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly
- Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the HV battery
To prevent electric shock, make sure to remove the service plug grip to cut off the high voltage circuit before servicing the vehicle.
After removing the service plug grip from the HV battery, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.
After removing the service plug grip, wait for at least 10 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals. After waiting for 10 minutes, check the voltage at the terminals in the inspection point in the inverter with converter assembly. The voltage should be 0 V before beginning work.
