Warning
<<High voltage>>
•  If the necessary measures are not taken before servicing an electric vehicle, it could cause electrical shock and result in serious injury or, in the worst case, death. Before servicing the electric vehicle, refer to [HIGH VOLTAGE SERVICE CAUTIONS] in the general information and implement the necessary measures. (See HIGH VOLTAGE SERVICE CAUTIONS.)

Outline

Malfunction symptom

High voltage battery does not warm up

Description
•  It takes a long time to fully charge with charge.
•  Frequency of poor acceleration or insufficient power is high.
Possible cause
Battery heater operation is poor:
•  Battery heater malfunction
•  Battery heater circuit malfunction
―  Poor connector contact
―  Open circuit in wiring harness
―  Blown fuse
•  High voltage battery module temperature sensor malfunction
High voltage battery malfunction:
•  High voltage battery module temperature sensor malfunction
Battery heater setting status:
•  Battery heater operation setting is off (High voltage battery charge/discharge function decreased because battery heater operation during low temperatures does not operate.)

Diagnostic Procedure

Warning
<<High voltage>>
•  If necessary measures such as wearing the correct protective gear are not taken when inspecting or removing/installing the high voltage parts, it could cause electrical shock and result in serious injury or, in the worst case, death.
•  Before inspecting or removing/installing the high voltage parts, refer to [HIGH VOLTAGE SERVICE CAUTIONS] in the general information and [High Voltage Part Inspection and Removal/Installation Notes] of the high voltage system service cautions and implement the necessary measures and preparations. (See HIGH VOLTAGE SERVICE CAUTIONS.) (See HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM SERVICE CAUTIONS.)

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1
INSPECT BATTERY HEATER FOR MALFUNCTION
•  Inspect the applicable part.
•  Is the part normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the malfunctioning location.
Return to the diagnostic procedure of other symptom troubleshooting.
2
VERIFY BATTERY HEATER OPERATION SETTING
•  Refer to the ownerÅfs manual and verify the battery heater operation setting status.
•  Is the battery heater operation setting turned on?
Yes
Return to the diagnostic procedure of other symptom troubleshooting.
No
Advise the customer to turn on the battery heater operation setting because the charge/discharge performance lowers when the high voltage battery temperature is low. (Additionally, explain that the high voltage battery state of charge (SOC) decreases by the battery heater operation.)Return to the diagnostic procedure of other symptom troubleshooting.
