DTC Descriptor

DTC P0C20: Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump Phase U-V-W Circuits

Circuit/System Description

The power inverter module, often referred to as the drive motor generator power inverter module, contains three motor control modules and the hybrid powertrain control module. Two of the motor control modules operate their respective drive motor generator based upon drive motor generator power inverter module commands. The third motor control module controls the Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump Motor. The motors utilise 3 phase AC electricity. The motor stator coil is comprised of three-phase circuits. The phase circuits are identified as phase U, phase V and phase W. The U-V-W phase circuits are connected in a wye configuration. This means each phase in the motor stator is connected at a single, central point. The motor control modules monitor a current sensor connected to each motor phase. The current sensors are part of the motor control module assembly and are not serviced separately. The motor control modules are part of the power inverter module and are not serviced separately.

Conditions for Running the DTC

    • The vehicle is ON.
    • The motor control module has applied current to the auxiliary transmission fluid pump motor.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The motor control module detects at least one U-V-W phase current sensor is less than 1.0 A.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • DTC P0C20 is a Type A DTC.
    • Vehicle propulsion will be disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTC P0C20 is a Type A DTC.

Circuit/System Testing

    Danger: Always perform the High-Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.

    The High-Voltage Disabling procedure will perform the following tasks:

       • Identify how to disable high voltage.
       • Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage.
       • Identify conditions under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.
    Failure to follow the procedures exactly as written may result in serious injury or death.

  1. Perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure for servicing the T6 power inverter module assembly or T12 Transmission.
  2. Disconnect the X8 connector from the T6 power inverter module.
  3. Test for infinite resistance between the terminals listed below and each for each phase of the G5 auxiliary transmission fluid pump:
  4. • Terminal 1 phase U
    • Terminal 2 phase V
    • Terminal 3 phase W
    If less than the specified value, replace the G5 auxiliary transmission fluid pump.
  5. Replace the T6 power inverter module.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.

    • Auxiliary Fluid Pump Motor and Fluid Pump Disassemble and Auxiliary Fluid Pump Motor and Fluid Pump Assemble for Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump replacement
    •  Control Module References for Drive Motor Generator Power Inverter Module, also called the power inverter module, replacement, programming and set-up.
