Diagnosis Guide for Each Condition of Accident Vehicle
• The Electric Vehicle comes equipped with a high voltage battery that can cause
serious injury, like electric shocks, or even death when malfunctioning or mishandled,
so follow manual below.
• This guide is intended to provide tips for inspecting the high-voltage battery
health in relation to vehicle damage situation.

Appropriate actions for each high voltage battery health condition
Status |
Description |
Normal |
• |
All functions of high voltage battery are normal and no additional
measures are necessary. Communication for data verification
is available in this state.
|
|
Need to Check |
• |
Scratches on high voltage battery lower case (protective cover)
does not affect the battery cooling system.
|
• |
If the battery sensor data (Isolation Resistance, DTC, Module
Voltage, etc.) are normal, the replacement of a case is not
necessary.
|
• |
If any issues are detected through the KDS, affected components
need to be replaced.
|
• |
Battery pack air tightness test and cooling system air tightness
test need to be performed.
|
|
Warning |
• |
Refer to the below procedure to check the high voltage battery
condition.
※ If any damage in the lower case is identified, replace the
lower case ASSY. However, Inner parts such as Cell Monitoring
Unit (CMU), Battery Management Unit (BMU) and modules should
be re-used.
|
|
Danger |
• |
Store the vehicle in a separate space to ensure safety.
|
• |
Avoid storing it indoors.
|
• |
Ask professional guidance to a fire department or local high
voltage battery remanufacturing company to secure workshop safety.
