Diagnosis procedure for power module using multimeter
[Inverter section]
Set the multimeter to resistance range of 100. If 100 is not provided, measure with the range of
x 1 to 100.
If the pointer does not swing when the following continuity check is performed, it is normal.
(When a digital multimeter is used, + and - terminals will be reversed, since the orientation of built-in
battery is inverted.)
Note:
If internal circuit of power module is disconnected (open) and pointer of the mutimeter does not swing,
it may be assumed to be normal. If the pointer swings when + and - terminals are connected in
reverse, it is normal. Compare swing statuses for U, V and W phases: If the statuses at all 3 points are
the same, it is normal.
