NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [(E)]

id0117008020u6

Warning
•  Before removing the SRS air bag system-related parts, always disconnect the negative battery terminal and wait for 1 min. or more to allow the back-up power supply to deplete its stored power. (See AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE WARNINGS [STANDARD DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM].) (See AIR BAG SYSTEM SERVICE WARNINGS [TWO-STEP DEPLOYMENT CONTROL SYSTEM].)
•  Contact with the positive battery terminal could cause electrocution due to a short circuit and result in serious injury or death, or damage to vehicle parts. Do not contact the positive battery terminal when performing the procedure.
Caution
•  With the battery connected and the ignition switched ON, or if servicing is performed for a long period (10 min or more) with the ignition switched off.

Required Procedure After Negative Battery Terminal Disconnection/Connection

System name

Conditions after disconnecting the negative battery terminal

Required procedure

Reference

Before disconnecting negative battery terminal

After connecting negative battery terminal
i-stop system
Specified information in the PCM cleared and the i-stop does not operate normally.
Verify PCM PID [BATT_SOC] value and record. *1 (Without M Hybrid)
Perform battery condition initial setting (i-stop setting). *2
(See BATTERY CONDITION INITIALIZATION SETTING (i-stop SETTING).)
Sunroof system
Initial settings are reset, and operations are disabled.
—
Perform the initial settings of the sunroof system.
(See SUNROOF SYSTEM INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE.)

*1  :Because the [BATT_SOC] value before disconnecting the negative battery terminal is required for the battery condition initial setting (i-stop setting), record the [BATT_SOC] value before disconnecting the negative battery terminal.
*2  :For vehicles with i-stop, if the negative battery terminal is disconnected and re-connected, battery condition initial setting (i-stop setting) must be performed.

Negative Battery Terminal Disconnection


Vehicle without i-stop or vehicle with i-stop and with M Hybrid

1.  Switch the ignition to off.

Caution
•  Be careful not to contact the positive battery terminal.
Note
•  The positive battery cable nut cannot be removed to prevent it from falling off.

2.  Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

•  When disconnecting the plastic deformed negative battery terminal, expand the gap of the negative battery terminal using a flathead screwdriver, and remove the nut.

Vehicle with i-stop and without M Hybrid

1.  Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.

2.  Switch the ignition ON (engine off).

3.  Verify the “BATT_SOC” value using the M-MDS data logger function. (See PID/DATA MONITOR INSPECTION.)

4.  Record the “BATT_SOC” value.

“BATT_SOC” value is less than 75%
•  Inspect the battery. (See BATTERY INSPECTION [(E)].)
“BATT_SOC” value is 75% or more
•  Go to the next step.

5.  Switch the ignition off.

Caution
•  If the nut for the current sensor is loosened with the negative battery terminal connected to the battery, excessive torque will be applied to the negative battery terminal and the battery terminal will be damaged. When removing the negative battery terminal and current sensor, be careful not to damage the battery terminal.
•  Be careful not to contact the positive battery terminal.

6.  Disconnect the current sensor connector.

Note
•  The positive battery cable nut cannot be removed to prevent it from falling off.

7.  Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

•  When disconnecting the plastic deformed negative battery terminal, expand the gap of the negative battery terminal using a flathead screwdriver, and remove the nut.

Negative Battery Terminal Connection


Vehicle without i-stop

Caution
•  When tightening the negative battery terminal, tighten it to the specified torque. If it is not tightened to the specified torque, the battery charging/discharging may be affected. (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G (WITHOUT CYLINDER DEACTIVATION (E))].)


Vehicle with i-stop and with M Hybrid

1.  Perform battery condition initial setting (i-stop setting). (See BATTERY CONDITION INITIALIZATION SETTING (i-stop SETTING).)

Note
•  Connection of the negative battery terminal will be done in the battery condition initial setting (i-stop setting) procedure.


Vehicle with i-stop and without M Hybrid

Caution
•  Connect the negative battery terminal before connecting the current sensor connector. If the current sensor connector is connected first, the PCM may mistakenly recognize a signal from the current sensor and learn the battery condition incorrectly.
•  Verifying the tightness while holding the current sensor may apply excessive force to the terminal and the terminal could loosen, causing poor engine starting. When verifying the tightness of the negative battery terminal, only hold the terminal area, not the current sensor.

1.  Perform battery condition initial setting (i-stop setting). (See BATTERY CONDITION INITIALIZATION SETTING (i-stop SETTING).)

Note
•  Connection of the negative battery terminal and the current sensor connector will be done in the battery condition initial setting (i-stop setting) procedure.
