  1. MALFUNCTION DESCRIPTION 

    These DTCs are stored when the motor temperature sensor output is abnormal. The cause of this malfunction may be one of the following:

    Motor temperature sensor malfunction 

    • Internal motor temperature sensor malfunction
    • Open or short in motor temperature sensor

    Wire harness between the motor temperature sensor and hybrid vehicle control ECU 

    • The connectors are not connected properly
    • Foreign matter or water on the connector terminals
    • Open or short in wire harness

    HINT: 

    If any of these DTCs are stored, the motor temperature sensor is malfunctioning and the self-protection function may not operate. Therefore under certain high load driving condition, the temperature of the motor (MG2) becomes high. If the self-protection function does not operate, the motor (MG2) may malfunction and cause the vehicle to enter fail-safe mode.
