PINPOINT TEST C : P0A94:4B, P0D32:00

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The DCDC is liquid cooled by the motor electronics cooling system that consists of a radiator, coolant hoses, and a coolant pump. The DCDC monitors its temperature internally. The DCDC requests a coolant flow speed and monitors the coolant pump status from the BECM via HS-CAN.

If the internal temperature increases higher than 81°C (178°F), P0A94:4B sets and the output current is limited until the over-temperature condition clears.

If the internal temperature becomes excessive, DTC P0D32:00 sets and the DCDC goes to standby mode ( DCDC disabled) until the over-temperature condition clears. Presence of this DTC results in CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM being displayed in the message center and the 12-volt battery discharged.

Reduced or no functionality of 12-volt systems (such as the headlamps, and HVAC blower motor) may also be noticed.

PINPOINT TEST D : P0E56:00, P0E56:13

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The DCDC monitors the high-voltage available from the high-voltage battery. If the DCDC senses high voltage of less than 152 volts, it sets P0E56:00. The DCDC also compares that high-voltage reading with the high-voltage available to the SOBDMC, which is communicated via a HS-CAN message. When the DCDC compares its available high-voltage to that available to the SOBDMC and determines the difference to be 120 volts or more, it sets DTC P0E56:13. Both DTCs result in a request the CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM message be displayed in the message center. The DCDC attempts to maintain operation. An open high-voltage, low-current fuse (located in the high voltage battery junction box) may cause the DCDC to be non-functional, resulting in the 12-volt battery eventually becoming drained. Reduced or no functionality of 12-volt systems (such as the headlamps, HVAC blower motor) may also be noticed.

PINPOINT TEST F : U3003:16

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions

The DCDC monitors the 12-volt battery system voltage internally at the B+ terminal of the DCDC. If the voltage drops below 10.3 volts at the B+ terminal (output of DC/DC) while the ignition is ON, the DCDC sets DTC U3003:16. The DCDC will continue to produce output current until the B+ terminal voltage is less than 8V. At that point the DCDC goes to standby mode ( DCDC disabled) and the 12-volt battery can eventually be discharged. Reduced or no functionality of 12-volt systems (such as the headlamps and HVAC blower motor) may also be noticed.
