P1C8449 |
High Voltage Power Resource Circuit Short during Ready ON |
DTC SUMMARY
MALFUNCTION DESCRIPTION
The hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly monitors the high-voltage wiring between the HV battery and inverter with converter assembly and detects an open circuit malfunction.
HINT:
- This DTC is differentiated from P300449 based on detection timing (after power switch is turned on (READY)). If P300449 is also output at the same time, first perform troubleshooting for P300449.
- If there is a SMRG stuck open malfunction, only P1C8449 is output.
The cause of this malfunction may be one of the following:
Inverter voltage sensor (VH or VL) internal circuit malfunction
- Voltage sensor (VH or VL) malfunction
- Motor generator control ECU (MG ECU) malfunction
- Communication (wire harness) malfunction
High voltage system malfunction
- HV battery malfunction
- HV battery junction block assembly malfunction
- Inverter with converter assembly malfunction
- High-voltage wire harness malfunction
- High-voltage connector or connection malfunction
Low-voltage circuit (12 V) malfunction
- Hybrid vehicle control ECU assembly malfunction
- HV battery junction block assembly malfunction
- Low voltage wire harness malfunction
- Low voltage connector malfunction

P1C8449 |
High Voltage Power Resource Circuit Short during Ready ON |
High-voltage circuit malfunctions between the HV battery and inverter with converter assembly. When the power switch is on (READY), both "VL-Voltage before Boosting" and "VH-Voltage after Boosting" drop abnormally. The EV electric battery fuse is blown, the service plug grip is removed, SMRB or SMRG remains open, or the high-voltage cable has an open circuit. (1 trip detection logic) |

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
HINT:
After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
Click here
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.
- Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
- Turn the power switch off and wait for 2 minutes or more.
- Turn the power switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.
-
Turn the power switch on (READY) and wait for 3 minutes or more.
HINT:
According to the display on the Techstream, read the Data List and monitor the values of "Hybrid Battery Voltage" and "VL-Voltage before Boosting" for 3 minutes. If the difference between "Hybrid Battery Voltage" and "VL-Voltage before Boosting" is always less than 50 V, the vehicle has returned to normal.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Utility / All Readiness.
-
Check the DTC judgment result.
HINT:
- If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
- If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
- If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE, perform driving pattern again.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
CAUTION:
-
Before the following operations are conducted, take precautions to prevent electric shock by turning the power switch off, wearing insulated gloves, and removing the service plug grip from HV battery.
- Inspecting the high-voltage system
- Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly
- Disconnecting the low voltage connector of the HV battery
-
To prevent electric shock, make sure to remove the service plug grip to cut off the high voltage circuit before servicing the vehicle.
-
After removing the service plug grip from the HV battery, put it in your pocket to prevent other technicians from accidentally reconnecting it while you are working on the high-voltage system.
-
After removing the service plug grip, wait for at least 10 minutes before touching any of the high-voltage connectors or terminals. After waiting for 10 minutes, check the voltage at the terminals in the inspection point in the inverter with converter assembly. The voltage should be 0 V before beginning work.

HINT:
Waiting for at least 10 minutes is required to discharge the high-voltage capacitor inside the inverter with converter assembly.
*a
Without waiting for 10 minutes
NOTICE:
After turning the power switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal notices before proceeding with work.

CHECK DTC OUTPUT (HYBRID CONTROL) |
(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) With the vehicle stopped, apply the parking brake and turn the power switch on (READY).
NOTICE:
Perform this test with the AUTO function (shift-linked function) of the electric parking brake system off.
HINT:
- If the power switch could not be turned on (READY), turn the power switch off and check for DTCs after turning the power switch on (READY) again.
- Because P300449 uses 2 trip detection logic, the DTC detection conditions need to be met 2 times.
- When the parking brake indicator (red) is illuminated after the electric parking brake switch assembly has been pulled to the lock side, the maximum amount of braking force is applied if the electric parking brake switch assembly is pulled to the lock side one more time.
(c) Ensure the safety of the areas in front and at the back of the vehicle.
(d) Move the shift lever to D and depress both the accelerator pedal and brake pedal at the same time.
HINT:
Depressing both the accelerator pedal and brake pedal at the same time causes the HV battery current to flow and ensures that there is no problem with the high-voltage wiring.
(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Trouble Codes.
(f) Check for DTCs.
Powertrain > Hybrid Control > Trouble Codes
