DTC Descriptor
DTC P1AE8
- Drive Motor 1 Control Module Hybrid Battery Voltage Sense Circuit Low Voltage

DTC P1AE9
- Drive Motor 1 Control Module Hybrid Battery Voltage Sense Circuit High Voltage

DTC P1AEA
- Drive Motor 2 Control Module Hybrid Battery Voltage Sense Circuit Low Voltage

DTC P1AEB
- Drive Motor 2 Control Module Hybrid Battery Voltage Sense Circuit High Voltage

Circuit/System Description

The drive motor generator power inverter module (PIM) contains two motor control modules (MCM). Each MCM monitors its internal high voltage sensor for correct operation.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* Ignition is ON.
* Ignition voltage is 8-18V.
* The high voltage contactor relays are closed.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

P1AE8 and P1AEA

The motor control module (MCM) detects high voltage sensor voltage less than 0V.

P1AE9 and P1AEB

The motor control module (MCM) detects high voltage sensor voltage greater than 564V.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* DTCs P1AE8, P1AE9, P1AEA and P1AEB are Type B DTCs.
* The hybrid powertrain control module (HPCM) commands the battery energy control module (BECM) to open the high voltage contactor relays.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTCs P1AE8, P1AE9, P1AEA and P1AEB are Type B DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Clear the DTC information.
2. Ignition OFF for 1 minute.
3. Ignition ON.
4. Retest for DTCs P1AE8, P1AE9, P1AEA and P1AEB.

Circuit/System Testing

Ignition ON, retest for DTCs P1AE8, P1AE9, P1AEA and P1AEB.

If the DTC resets, program the PIM with the latest software version and recheck for DTCs. If the DTC resets after programming or if the PIM already contains the latest software version, replace the PIM.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.
