Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of the maintenance of hybrid and electric vehicles, in particular to the technical field of a method for inspecting high-voltage contactors of hybrid and electric vehicles without disassembly. Background Art
[0002] A hybrid / electric vehicle battery assembly generally incorporates a high-voltage contactor assembly. It can not only connect and disconnect the circuit, but also play a role in release protection. It is applicable to circuits with large capacity, long distance, and frequent operation, and is an important electronic component in the high-voltage control system of high-voltage vehicle models. The high-voltage contactor assembly generally has 4 high-voltage contactors. The high-voltage contactor can connect the high-voltage DC battery to the vehicle or accommodate high-voltage direct current in the hybrid / electric vehicle battery assembly. The 4 high-voltage contactors include a main positive high-voltage contactor, a main negative high-voltage contactor, a charging positive high-voltage contactor, and a pre-charge negative high-voltage contactor. The contactors are closed and opened in a specified order controlled by the hybrid / electric vehicle powertrain control module.
[0003] Based on years of experience in the maintenance of new energy vehicles, the common faults of high-voltage contactors include: contactor coil faults, contactor contact faults, internal high-voltage line faults of the contactor, internal low-voltage control line faults of the contactor, and built-in fuse faults of the contactor, etc.
[0004] Currently, there are the following problems in the inspection of high-voltage contactor faults:
[0005] (1) Since the high-voltage contactor assembly is built into the hybrid / electric vehicle battery pack, it is often necessary to remove the high-voltage battery pack and disassemble it to inspect the high-voltage contactor to determine the fault. Because the high-voltage battery pack always has high voltage, there are certain safety hazards during disassembly and assembly, and non-standard operations will damage the vehicle and cause personal safety accidents.
[0006] (2) Currently, there is no good inspection method and process. Even the manufacturer's maintenance manual does not give the inspection process, and the maintenance technicians are blind, non-standard, and unscientific during inspection.
[0007] (3) The first-pass repair rate is low, and there are problems with the maintenance quality, and it is impossible to solve vehicle problems efficiently and accurately. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of the invention is to solve the problems in the prior art and propose a method for inspecting high-voltage contactors of hybrid and electric vehicles without disassembly, which can inspect the high-voltage contactors of hybrid and electric vehicles without disassembly.
[0009] To achieve the above purpose, the invention proposes a method for inspecting high-voltage contactors of hybrid and electric vehicles without disassembly, including the following steps:
[0010] Step S1: Turn off the vehicle ignition switch. After the vehicle goes into sleep mode, disconnect the low-voltage plug of the vehicle battery pack.
[0011] Step S2: Use a multimeter to measure whether the resistance from the pin of the electric vehicle battery pack for grounding to the ground is less than 2 ohms. If not, check whether the resistance of the line from the pin of the electric vehicle battery pack for grounding to the ground is too large or whether the grounding point is good.
[0012] Step S3: Disconnect the plug of the vehicle powertrain control module. Use a multimeter to measure whether the resistance between each pin of the battery pack and the corresponding pin in the vehicle powertrain control module is less than 1 ohm. If not, check whether the resistance of this line is too large.
[0013] Step S4: Connect the plug of the vehicle battery pack and measure respectively whether the resistance between each pin of the vehicle powertrain control module corresponding to the battery and the ground is normal. If not, judge that there is a fault in the coil of the corresponding high-voltage contactor or there is a fault in the internal line of the contactor in the contactor assembly, and the corresponding high-voltage contactor assembly or this high-voltage contactor needs to be replaced.
[0014] Step S5: Wear "personal safety protection equipment" and execute the high-voltage system deactivation procedure for the vehicle.
[0015] Step S6: Disconnect the DC / DC module high-voltage bus connector and the on-board charger high-voltage bus connector of the high-voltage line of the vehicle battery pack, and measure respectively whether the voltages of pins A and B of the DC / DC module and the on-board charger are close to the high-voltage battery voltage. If so, judge that the contacts of the battery charging system positive contactor and the battery negative contactor are stuck, and the high-voltage contactor assembly or this high-voltage contactor needs to be replaced.
[0016] Step S7: Disconnect the high-voltage bus connectors of each high-voltage component in the high-voltage line of the vehicle battery pack, and measure respectively whether the voltage between pins A and B of each high-voltage component is close to the high-voltage battery voltage. If so, judge that the contacts of the electric vehicle battery positive contactor and the battery negative contactor are stuck, and the high-voltage contactor assembly or this high-voltage contactor needs to be replaced. If it is close to half of the high-voltage battery voltage, judge that the contacts of the electric vehicle battery positive contactor and the pre-charge contactor are stuck, and the high-voltage contactor assembly or this high-voltage contactor needs to be replaced.
[0017] Step S8: Keep the vehicle executing the high-voltage system deactivation procedure and directly connect the pin of the vehicle automotive battery pack for grounding to the vehicle body ground for a short circuit.
[0018] Step S9: Use a jumper wire with a fuse to make cross-connections to the electric vehicle battery pack in sequence to check whether the contacts of each high-voltage contactor are good.
[0019] Preferably, step S9 includes the following steps:
[0020] Step S9-1: Use a jumper wire with a fuse to supply power to the pin on the electric vehicle battery pack corresponding to the positive contactor of the charging system to control the positive contactor of the charging system to close.

[0022] Step S9-3: Measure whether the voltage between terminals A and B of the DC / DC module or on-board charger is the high-voltage battery voltage. If so, it is determined that the contacts of the positive and negative contactors of the battery charging system are closed normally. If the voltage is close to 0V, it is determined that the contacts of the positive and negative contactors of the battery charging system are not closed normally or there is a corresponding fuse failure inside the high-voltage contactor, and the high-voltage contactor assembly or the high-voltage contactor and fuse need to be replaced.
[0023] Preferably, step S9 further includes the following steps:
[0024] Step S9-4: Use a jumper wire with a fuse to supply power to the pin on the electric vehicle battery pack corresponding to the positive contactor to control the positive contactor to close.

[0026] Step S9-6: Measure whether the voltage between terminals A and B of any high-voltage component is the high-voltage battery voltage. If so, it can be determined that the contacts of the positive and negative contactors are closed normally. If the voltage is close to 0V, it can be determined that the contacts of the positive and negative contactors are not closed normally or there is a corresponding fuse failure inside the high-voltage contactor, and the high-voltage contactor assembly or the high-voltage contactor and fuse need to be replaced.

If so, it is determined that the contacts of the pre-charge contactor and the negative contactor are normally closed. If the voltage is close to 0V, it is determined that the contacts of the pre-charge contactor and the negative contactor are not normally closed or there is a corresponding fuse failure inside the high-voltage contactor, and the high-voltage contactor assembly or the high-voltage contactor and fuse need to be replaced.

[0073] Step S9-7: Keep the 5th pin of the battery pack directly short-circuited to the vehicle body ground. Use a jumper wire with a fuse to supply power to the pin corresponding to the pre-charge contactor on the electric vehicle battery pack, i.e., the 2nd pin, with a supply voltage of 12V to control the pre-charge contactor to close.
[0074] Step S9-8: Use another jumper wire with a fuse to supply power to the pin corresponding to the negative contactor on the electric vehicle battery pack, i.e., the 4th pin, with a supply voltage of 12V to control the negative contactor to close.
[0075] Step S9-8: Measure whether the voltages of terminals A and B of any high-voltage component are much lower than the high-voltage battery voltage but much higher than 12V. If so, it is determined that the contacts of the pre-charge contactor and the negative contactor are normally closed.
