DC-DC Converter Operation Inspection

1.  Verify that the DC-DC converter related DTC is detected. (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST [PCM (SKYACTIV-G 1.5, SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5)].)

•  If DTCs are detected, repair the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
•  If a DTC is not detected, go to the next step.

2.  Inspect the battery. (See BATTERY INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G 1.5, SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5])

•  If there is a malfunction, recharge or replace the battery, then go to the next step. (See BATTERY RECHARGING [SKYACTIV-G 1.5, SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5].) (See BATTERY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G 1.5, SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5].)

3.  When the engine is restarted by the i-stop control, verify that the following measured voltages are not lower than 11.5V.

•  Auto light sensor/humidity sensor/rain sensor supply terminal (vehicle wiring harness-side connector terminal D)
•  Audio unit supply terminal (vehicle wiring harness-side connector terminal 1B) (without center display)
•  Tuner and amp unit (TAU) (vehicle wiring harness-side connector terminal 2T) (with center display)
•  Audio amplifier (vehicle wiring harness-side connector terminal 3A) (with center display/BOSE® type audio)
―  If it cannot be verified, go to the next step.

4.  Inspect the wiring harness between the following terminals for an open or short circuit.

•  Between the DC-DC converter terminal K and auto light sensor/humidity sensor/rain sensor terminal D
•  Between the DC-DC converter terminal K and audio unit terminal 1B (without center display)
•  Between the DC-DC converter terminal K and tuner and amp unit (TAU) terminal 2T (with center display)
•  Between the DC-DC converter terminal K and audio amplifier terminal 3A (with center display/BOSE® type audio)
―  If there is any open or short circuit in the wiring harness, repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
―  If there is any open or short circuit in the wiring harness, replace the DC-DC converter. (See DC-DC CONVERTER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G 1.5, SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5 (WITHOUT i-ELOOP)].)
