Conditions for Setting the DTC
The MCM cannot track the motor position.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
* DTCs P1B03 and P1B04 are Type A DTCs.
* The hybrid powertrain control module (HPCM) commands the battery energy control module (BECM) to open the high voltage contactor
relays.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
DTCs P1B03 and P1B04 are Type A DTCs.
Diagnostic Aids
* The drive motor generator position sensor circuits operate at very low current. Extreme care must be taken when probing terminals and
manipulating harnesses.
* The sensor circuit loops are twisted pair with each pair covered in a foil shield. The shield circuits outside of the transmission are grounded to
a stud on the drive motor generator power inverter module (PIM) assembly.
* Ensure the drive motor generator position sensor harness shield circuits are properly grounded prior to testing.

Circuit/System Testing
Note: The drive motor generator position sensor circuits require proper circuit integrity for correct system operation. Just a few ohms of
additional circuit resistance may cause position sensor signal degradation.
* Always inspect position sensor signal connectors for proper terminal contact.
* All diagnostic connections must be made with the approved test probes to prevent the creation of poor terminal contact.
* Connectors that contain position sensor signal circuits must always be clean and dry prior to mating. Foreign material or moisture within
the connector may cause sensor signal degradation.
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect PIM X1 connector.
2. Using the Position Sensor Specification table specifications listed below, test the position sensor resistance at the PIM X1 circuits as
indicated. Use the specifications for the drive motor generator that set the DTC. Also test each circuit for a short to ground.
瀚慖f any of the circuits are not within specification, continue with testing.
瀚慖f all circuits test normal, inspect for proper terminal contact at PIM X1 connector. If PIM X1 terminal contact tests OK, perform the
Intermittent Condition Testing below.
3. Disconnect the transmission X176 24-way connector.
4. Connect the DT-48493 to the X176 24-way connector at the transmission.
5. Using the Position Sensor Specification table specifications listed below, test the position sensor resistance at the transmission X176 circuits
as indicated. Use the specifications for the drive motor generator that set the DTC. Also test each circuit for a short to ground.
