DTC P0ADF-229 Hybrid Battery Negative Contactor Control Circuit Low
DTC P0AE0-228 Hybrid Battery Negative Contactor Control Circuit High

DESCRIPTION




DTC Detection Condition:




The SMRs (System Main Relay) are the relays that connect or disconnect the high voltage power system in accordance with commands from the hybrid vehicle control ECU.

The SMR system is composed of three SMRs and one system main resistor. SMRB and SMRG are located on the HV relay assembly in the battery carrier under the HV battery. SMRP and the system main resistor are located in the hybrid vehicle converter (DC/DC converter) assembly in the battery carrier. To connect to the high voltage power system, the vehicle will first turn on SMRP and SMRB to charge the vehicle through the system main resistor. Then, SMRP will be turned off after SMRG is turned on. To shut off the high voltage power system, SMRB and SMRG are turned off.

When there is an open in the AMD line or IGCT line, the given DTCs are output:

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

CAUTION:
- Before inspecting the high-voltage system or disconnecting the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly, take safety precautions such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip to prevent electrical shocks. After removing the service plug grip, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.
- After disconnecting the service plug grip, wait for at least 10 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals. After waiting, check the voltage at the inspection point in the inverter with converter assembly. The voltage should be 0 V before beginning work.


HINT: Waiting for at least 10 minutes is required to discharge the high-voltage capacitor inside the inverter with converter assembly.
