Check For Intermittent Problems

  1. CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS 
    1. Perform a simulation test (See HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING )
      1. In the simulation test, reproduce the driving condition at the trouble occurrence according to the customer&s comments and freeze frame data recorded with DTCs, such as an opening angle of the accelerator pedal, SOC, engine coolant temperature, engine rpm, and Motor/Generator/ Rear Motor rpm and torque.
    2. Check the connector(s) and terminal(s) (See HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS )
    3. Wiggle the harness and connector(s) (See HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS )
    4. Heat or cool suspected parts (See HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING )
    NOTE: Do not directly heat or cool the MG ECU with the inverter cover removed.
