P112 HYBRID BATTERY CONTROL: HYBRID BATTERY SYSTEM: P0A80: Replace Hybrid Battery Pack

DTC P0A80 - Replace Hybrid Battery Pack

DESCRIPTION

The HV battery assembly consists of nickel hydride batteries. Nickel hydride batteries do not require external charging. The SOC (state of charge) of the HV battery is maintained at a constant voltage level by the hybrid vehicle control ECU while the vehicle is being driven. In the HV battery assembly, 28 modules are connected in series, and each module has six 1.2 V cells that are connected in series. Thus, the HV battery assembly contains a total of 168 cells which produce 201.6 V.
The battery ECU, which monitors two modules as a single battery block, detects the battery block voltage at a total of 14 locations.









MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The battery ECU, which monitors the voltage of the battery blocks, determines that malfunction has occurred if a voltage difference between the battery blocks exceeds the standard. When the malfunction detection condition is satisfied, the battery ECU illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC.
