Pinpoint Test Z: P0BD0

  1. NOTE: The Inverter System Controller (ISC) is referred to as the SOBDMC (Secondary On-Board Diagnostic Control Module C) in the scan tool.

    Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

    REFER to: Electric Powertrain Control - System Operation and Component Description .

    DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

    DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition
    SOBDMC P0BD0:00 Generator Inverter Temperature Sensor 'A' Circuit Intermittent/Erratic: No Sub Type Information This DTC sets when generator inverter temperature sensor readings are changing at an excessive rate for too long.

    Possible Causes 

    • Inverter System Controller (ISC) Calibration
    • Motor Electronics Coolant Fluid Level Low
    • Inverter System Controller (ISC)

  2. Z1 CHECK FOR BECM (BATTERY ENERGY CONTROL MODULE) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)

    • Ignition ON.

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, carry out the BECM self-test.

    Are any coolant pump Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) present in the BECM ' 

    Yes  DIAGNOSE any coolant pump Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). For HEV, REFER to: High Voltage Battery, Mounting and Cables - Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) in the appropriate High Voltage Battery, Mounting and Cables article. For PHEV, REFER to: DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) CHART .
    No  GO to  Z2
  3. Z2 CHECK THE INVERTER SYSTEM CONTROLLER (ISC) CALIBRATION LEVEL

    • Verify the Inverter System Controller (ISC) is at the latest calibration level.

    Is the Inverter System Controller (ISC) at the latest calibration level? 

    Yes  GO to  Z3
    No  UPDATE the Inverter System Controller (ISC) to the latest calibration level.
  4. Z3 CHECK THE ELECTRIC POWERTRAIN COOLANT LEVEL

    Is the electric powertrain coolant level OK? 

    Yes  GO to  Z4
    No  REFILL the electric powertrain cooling system, REFER to: Engine Cooling System Draining, Vacuum Filling and Bleeding .
  5. Z4 CHECK FOR INVERTER SYSTEM CONTROLLER (ISC) DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS)

    • Ignition ON.

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, clear the Inverter System Controller (ISC) Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).

    • Using a diagnostic scan tool, run the Inverter System Controller (ISC) self-test.

    Is DTC P0BD0 present? 

    Yes  CHECK OASIS for any applicable service articles: TSB, GSB, SSM or FSA. If a service article exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the service article instructions. If no service articles address this concern, INSTALL a new Inverter System Controller (ISC). REFER to: Inverter System Controller [SOBDMC] .
    No  The system is operating correctly at this time. The DTC may have been set due to high network traffic or an intermittent fault condition.
