INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Are there any other codes (besides DTC P3011±P3029) being outputs?
YES Go to relevant DTC chart.
NO
2 Check that the block voltage during charging/ discharging.
PREPARATION:
(a) To ensure safety, conduct this test in a wide, clear level area which provides good traction.
(b) Turn ON the ºREADYº light.
(c) Warm up the engine and turn off the A/C switch.
(d) Fully apply the parking brake and chock the 4 wheels.
(e) Connect a TOYOTA hand±held tester to DLC3 and select HV BATTERY and then CURRENT DATA.
(f) Show voltage of the block corresponding to the DTC and other block (any block except the above±
mentioned block).
CHECK:
(a) Keep your left foot pressed firmly on the brake pedal and shift into the R position.
(b) Confirm the engine stopped in the R position. Step on the accelerator pedal until the engine starts,
stepping on the brake pedal firmly.
(c) Release the accelerator pedal when the engine starts. At the same time, monitor the change of the
voltage before engine starting (during discharging) and after engine starting (during charging).
