Lexus NX: DC / DC Converter Status Circuit (P0A08-264)

DESCRIPTION

The DC/DC converter converts the DC 244.8 V of the HV battery into DC 12 V in order to supply power to areas such as the vehicle's lighting, audio, and ECU systems. In addition, it charges the auxiliary battery.

A transistor bridge circuit initially converts DC 244.8 V into alternating current, and a transformer lowers the voltage. Then, it is rectified and smoothed (into direct current) and converted into DC 12 V. The DC/DC converter controls the output voltage in order to keep a constant voltage at the terminals of the auxiliary battery.

The hybrid vehicle control ECU sends a signal to the DC/DC converter to prohibit its control and receives signals indicating a normal or abnormal condition of the 12 V charging system via the NODD signal line.

If the DC/DC converter malfunctions, the vehicle will become inoperative. Therefore, the hybrid vehicle control ECU monitors the operation of the DC/DC converter and detects malfunctions.

This DTC is stored when the DC/DC converter circuit has a malfunction or its operation is prohibited by a fail-safe function, or the auxiliary battery voltage drops to 11 V or less with the power switch on (READY). A signal indicating an auxiliary battery malfunction is sent from the DC/DC converter to the hybrid vehicle control ECU via the NODD signal line.

HINT:

  • When the NODD signal line is open, DC/DC converter control is prohibited and the auxiliary battery voltage will be approximately 12 V (or less).
  • Regarding NODD signal circuit, when the transistor of the hybrid vehicle control ECU turns on, a signal is sent to the inverter to prohibit DC/DC converter control. Sends a malfunction signal to the hybrid vehicle control ECU when the inverter side transistor is on.
  • If the inverter is overheating, control may be suspended for self-protection of the DC/DC converter and this DTC may be stored.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

CAUTION:

  • Before inspecting the high-voltage system or disconnecting the low voltage connector of the inverter with converter assembly, take safety precautions such as wearing insulated gloves and removing the service plug grip to prevent electrical shocks. After removing the service plug grip, 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.

    Click here

    HINT:

    Waiting for at least 10 minutes is required to discharge the high-voltage capacitor inside the inverter with converter assembly.

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.

HINT:

  • After repair, clear the DTCs, turn the power switch off and wait for 30 seconds or more and perform the following procedure to confirm that the auxiliary battery low voltage indicated by this DTC has been repaired.
    1. Wait for 2 minutes with the shift lever in P, the power switch on (READY) and the following conditions met, then confirm that Data List item "+B" is between 13.0 and 15.0 V.

      (If charging is not performed and the electrical load increases, +B voltage may not be steady and gradually drops.)

      1. Headlight switch is in the HI position.
      2. A/C blower fan switch is in the HI position.
      3. Window defogger switch is turned on.
  • By performing the following procedure, the DC/DC converter function can be checked.
    1. Connect the AC/DC 400 A probe to the positive auxiliary battery cable.
      1. Turn the power switch on (READY) and leave the vehicle as it is until the electric current flowing to the auxiliary battery becomes 10 A or less.
      2. Turn the power switch on (READY) and the headlight switch and A/C blower fan switch in the HI position, and the window defogger turned on.
      3. Confirm that the current drawn from the auxiliary battery is 0 A or lower and the auxiliary battery voltage is between 13.0 and 15.0 V.
  • This DTC may be also stored when a part other than the DC/DC converter is malfunctioning or depending on user operation.

4, 5

A fusible link is blown (DC/DC)

 

6

High-voltage insulation fault of the following (ground to body).

- Between the motor and inverter

- Between the generator and inverter

- Between the rear motor and inverter

DTC P0A08-264 may be stored if the ground potential fluctuates due to a high-voltage insulation malfunction.

7, 21 to 23, 28 to 30

Check low-voltage line from the inverter to the hybrid vehicle control ECU

Inspect the continuity and connection condition of the AMD and S lines.

8 to 11

NODD signal line

  • Check the NODD signal line from the inverter to the hybrid vehicle control ECU.
  • Check the NODD signal circuit inside the hybrid vehicle control ECU.

12, 24

The DC/DC converter is malfunctioning

Inspect the DC/DC converter function.

13

DC/DC converter control is suspended due to overheating

(inverter water pump with motor assembly is malfunctioning, the coolant is not sufficient, a hose is clogged, etc.)

When the inverter is overheating, the DC/DC converter has a self-protection function that may suspend the DC/DC converter control and output a DTC.

The suspended DC/DC converter control will return to normal by clearing the DTCs and turning the power switch off.

14 to 17, 25

Check areas that caused the blown R/B RR-B fuse (fusible link block assembly)

-

18, 26

Check areas that caused the blown fuse (D/C D/C-S)

-

19, 20, 27

  • If this vehicle is used to jump start another vehicle with a discharged battery, a fuse may blow due to overcurrent or the DC/DC converter self-protection may be activated. Also, if this vehicle is jump started by a vehicle with a 24 V battery, the same malfunction may occur and this DTC may be stored. (The suspended DC/DC converter control will return to normal by clearing the DTCs and turning the power switch off.)
  • Confirm that high electrical load equipment such as a high-capacitance audio device or electric kettle is used on the vehicle. (A fuse of the auxiliary battery may be blown due to overcurrent.)
  • If the DC/DC converter is malfunctioning, the auxiliary battery cannot be charged. Therefore, once the power switch is turned off, it may be impossible to turn it on (READY) again if the auxiliary battery is completely discharged. In this case, charge the auxiliary battery. Be careful as charging is not performed during the inspection.
  • If the power switch turns off immediately after it is turned on (READY), the auxiliary battery voltage may be low. Charge the auxiliary battery.

(b) Check that the bolts for the No. 2 frame wire (rear motor cable) are tightened to the specified torque, the No. 2 frame wire (rear motor cable) is connected securely, and there are no contact problems.

Specified Condition:

T = 15 N*m (153 kgf*cm, 11 ft.*lbf)

NOTICE:

Make sure that the tightening torque of the bolt is between 12 and 18 N*m (122 and 184 kgf*cm, 9 and 13 ft.*lbf).

(c) Disconnect the No. 2 frame wire (rear motor cable) from the rear traction motor with transaxle assembly

(d) Check for arc marks at the bolts for the No. 2 frame wire (rear motor cable).

CHECK NO. 2 FRAME WIRE (REAR MOTOR CABLE)

CAUTION:

Be sure to wear insulated gloves.

(a) Check that the service plug grip is not installed.

NOTICE:

After removing the service plug grip, do not turn the power switch on (READY), unless instructed by the repair manual because this may cause a malfunction.

(b) Disconnect the No. 2 frame wire (rear motor cable) from the inverter with converter assembly.

(c) Using a megohmmeter set to 500 V, measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

NOTICE:

Be sure to set the megohmmeter to 500 V when performing this test. Using a setting higher than 500 V can result in damage to the component being inspected.
