DTC Descriptor
DTC P0AFB
- Hybrid Battery System Voltage High - ACCM 300V
Diagnostic Fault Information
Typical Scan Tool Data
Circuit/System Description
The air conditioner control module (ACCM) monitors the high voltage direct current (HVDC) voltage to ensure that the voltage stays within the proper range. Damage to components, and incorrect data may occur when the voltage is out of range. If the ACCM detects high HVDC voltage, then DTC P0AFB will set.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* The engine is running or is in autostop mode.
* The 12 V system voltage is between 9.5-18 V.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ACCM detects that the hybrid battery voltage is greater than 415 V for 3 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The air conditioning is disabled.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* The DTC will pass when the ACCM detects a hybrid battery voltage less than 405 V for 3 seconds.
* A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles have occurred without a malfunction.
Diagnostic Aids
A high voltage DTC in multiple modules indicates a concern in the charging system.

Circuit/System Verification
1. Verify that no hybrid powertrain control module (HPCM) DTCs are set due to high battery voltage.
• If the specified DTCs are set, refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List - Vehicle.
2. Engine running or autostop, observe the scan tool ACCM High Battery Voltage parameter. The reading should be between 225 V and 380 V.
• If greater than the specified range, replace the ACCM.
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification Verification Tests after completing the diagnostic procedure.
