3) Disconnection of the high voltage circuit
WARNING:
After a vehicle fire, electrical hazards may remain potentially. Insulation of high voltage
wiring may be damaged or burned out by high temperature, and in such a case,
be sure to wear insulating personal protective equipment and approach the vehicle.
Disconnect the high voltage circuit by the following procedures.
1) Change the power supply mode of the power switch to OFF. (Refer to 2-1.)
2) Disconnect the 12V auxiliary battery negative terminal. (Refer to 3-5.)
NOTE: How to open tailgate (Refer to 3-4.)
3) Disconnect the power unit control fuse. (Refer to 3-6.)
4) Remove the service plug (Refer to 3-7.)
4) Checking the disconnection status of the high voltage circuit
WARNING:
Be sure to wear insulating personal protective equipment and check the
disconnection status of the high voltage circuit.
Measure the voltage at the high voltage wiring cable connected to the power drive unit by the following procedures.
1) Remove the power drive unit upper bracket inside the engine
compartment.
2) Remove the service lid of the power drive unit.
3) Measure the voltage as shown in the figure using a high voltage
multimeter.
Normal voltage: Approximately 0 Volt
If the voltage still exists at the power drive unit, disconnect the high voltage wiring that connects to the power
drive unit. Insulates the separated high-voltage wiring terminals to prevent electric shock.
