Diagnostic boundary

A diagnostic trouble code reports that a monitored test failed. It does not prove one specific part is bad, and manufacturer logic can add vehicle-specific conditions.

Do not disconnect generator inverter high-voltage cables without correct disable, wait time, and voltage verification.

Useful checks before replacing parts

Review generator inverter temperature, phase current, generator command, DC bus voltage, isolation status, freeze-frame load, and related generator or inverter codes.
Inspect inverter coolant flow, connector condition, low-voltage power and ground, high-voltage cable seating, service plug status, and water intrusion evidence.
Follow high-voltage diagnostic procedures to separate inverter faults from generator, resolver, current sensor, cooling, or wiring problems.
