Diagnostic Instructions
P1EC3, P1EC4, or P1EC5 - Heater Transistor Diagnosis
Danger: Always perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.
The High Voltage Disabling procedure will perform the following tasks:
* Identify how to disable high voltage.
* Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage.
* Identify condition under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.
Before working on any high voltage system, be sure to wear the following Personal Protection Equipment:
* Safety glasses with appropriate side shields when within 50 feet of the vehicle, either indoors or outdoors.
* Certified and up-to-date Class "0" Insulation gloves rated at 1000V with leather protectors.
- Visually and functionally inspect the gloves before use.
- Wear the Insulation gloves at all times when working with the high voltage battery assembly, whether the system is energized or not.
Failure to follow the procedures exactly as written may result in serious injury or death.
Danger: The Volt Battery Pack will utilize an exchange program. Please consult the most recent revision of bulletin/PI #PIP4841, available in Service Information (SI), for a list of approved Volt Battery Pack service procedures. Components that may be removed and serviced without exchanging the complete battery pack are identified in the bulletin/PI. Please contact the GM Technical Assistance Center (1-877-446-8227) if you have any questions.
1. Ignition OFF, disable the high voltage at the A4 hybrid/EV battery pack. Refer to High Voltage Disabling High Voltage Disabling.
2. Connect the 12 V battery.
3. Disconnect the X2 harness connector at the A28 hybrid battery contactor assembly.
4. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down. Test for less than 10 ohm between the ground circuit terminal X2 and ground.
• If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
5. Disconnect the X1 harness connector at the A28 hybrid battery contactor assembly.
6. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 2 and ground.
7. Ignition ON, engine OFF, command the Hybrid Battery Pack Precharge Transistor Command parameter OPEN and CLOSED with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
• If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K114B hybrid powertrain control module 2.
• If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K114B hybrid powertrain control module 2.
8. If all circuits test normal, replace the A28 hybrid battery contactor assembly.
