Motor Position And Temperature Sensor: Inspection: Notes

WARNING:
  • When working on the high voltage system, the work should be performed by technicians who have completed the relevant training. A lack of understanding of the high voltage system can lead to serious accidents due to electric shock or short circuit.
  • When working on the high voltage system or related components, be sure to observe and be aware of the "Safety Precautions, Cautions and Warnings". If not, it may cause serious accidents due to electric shock or short circuit. Refer To HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION AND CAUTION
  • When working on high voltage system, make sure to check the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and high voltage shut-off procedure. Refer To HIGH VOLTAGE SHUT-OFF PROCEDURES
  1. Turn the IG OFF, separate the auxiliary battery (12 V))-) terminal, and disconnect the high voltage service interlock connector.
    1. Separate the auxiliary battery (12 V))-) terminal (A) after removing the nut.
