2001 PRIUS (RM778U)
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check for open, short and +B short in wire harness between HV ECU MIT and
MIVG terminals and converter & inverter M±INVT, M±GINV terminals (See page
IN±41).
HINT:
Confirm that there is no open circuit in the wire harness. If the voltage between the HV ECU MIT or MIVG
terminal and body ground is always more than 5V with the ignition ON, the motor inverter temperature sensor
circuit has +B short.
NG Repair or replace wire harness.
OK
Check for open in motor inverter temperature sensor and then replace converter & inverter as-
sembly. Check motor inverter temperature sensor (See page HV±14).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
If the information code 279 or 281 is output, check if other DTC or information codes are recorded. If they
are recorded, check and repair those codes first.
If the information code 279 or 281 alone is recorded, replace the converter & inverter assembly.
If the information code 282 is output, replace the converter & inverter assembly.
