Signal Name Description Condition Impact
The drive interface (DI) or drive inverter (DIx) electronic control unit (ECU) detects a condition that requires it to trigger system limp mode.
The DI ECU detects abnormal operation in the powertrain system. Alert log signal data provides information on the specific condition(s) detected.
The performance (torque and power of the drive system) is severely limited.
Drive Inverter Warning: Heatsink sensor bad.
Abnormal temperature measurements from heatsink sensor
Unable to monitor heatsink sensor temperature
Drive Inverter Warning: Heatsink under temperature.
Heatsink temperature (refer to heatsinkTemp) drops below lower temperature threshold
No direct impact. Could damage drive inverter if temperature is continuously too low.
Drive Inverter Warning: Heatsink over temperature.
Heatsink temperature (refer to heatsinkTemp) exceeds upper temperature threshold
No direct impact. Could damage drive inverter if temperature is continuously too high.
Drive Inverter Warning: Ambient sensor bad.
Abnormal temperature measurements from ambient sensor
Unable to monitor ambient sensor temperature
Drive Inverter Warning: Ambient under temperature.
Ambient temperature (refer to pcbTemp) drops below lower temperature threshold
No direct impact. Could damage drive inverter if temperature is continuously too low.
Drive Inverter Warning: Ambient over temperature.
Ambient temperature (refer to pcbTemp) exceeds upper temperature threshold
No direct impact. Could damage drive inverter if temperature is continuously too high.
The Drive Inverter (DIx) and Pedal Monitor (PM) estimate different amounts of torque production, causing a Cross Check mismatch.
The DIx and PM estimate different amounts of torque production, causing a Cross Check mismatch. There may be a condition affecting DIx's or PM's ability to measure torque.
The vehicle may not accurately measure the level of torque being produced by the Drive Unit.
Drive Inverter Warning: Inverter over temperature.
Drive Inverter temperature (refer payload signals for temperatures) exceeds upper temperature threshold
No direct impact. Could damage drive inverter if temperature is continuously too high.
Drive Inverter Warning: Hardware latched fault response in an unexpected state.
Measured latched fault response does NOT match with expected request from DI
In the event of a sudden LV loss at speed, latched fault response may not match expectations, exposing drive unit to unexpected torque
Drive Inverter Warning: No Stator sensor available.
All stator sensors are giving abnormal measurements
Drive unit enters unit limp mode (see DI_a126_limpMode)
Drive Inverter Warning: Stator sensor 1 bad.
Abnormal temperature measurements from stator sensor 1
Stator sensor 2 will be used instead (if available)
Drive Inverter Warning: Stator over temperature.
Stator temperature exceeds upper temperature threshold
No direct impact. Could damage drive unit if temperature is continuously too high.
Drive Inverter Warning: Outlet sensor bad.
Abnormal temperature measurements from DI coolant outlet sensor
Unable to monitor DI coolant outlet sensor temperature
Drive Inverter Warning: Outlet under temperature.
DI coolant outlet temperature (refer to outletTemp) drops below lower temperature threshold
No direct impact. Could damage drive inverter if temperature is continuously too low.
Drive Inverter Warning: Outlet over temperature.
DI coolant outlet temperature (refer to outletTemp) exceeds upper temperature threshold
No direct impact. Could damage drive inverter if temperature is continuously too high.
Drive Inverter Warning: The Secondary Disconnect Controller (SDC) is not communicating to the Drive Inverter (DI), or there is an interface version mismatch. Service is needed.
The Secondary Disconnect Controller (SDC) is not communicating to the Drive Inverter (DI), or there is a mismatch between their interface version.
The Secondary Disconnect Controller (SDC) may not be monitoring potential drive unit failures.
Drive Inverter Warning: Battery sensor bad.
When HV bus is up, DI measured bus voltage very low or disagrees with BMS reported voltage
Drive unit enters unit limp mode (see DI_a126_limpMode), faults (Model 3 only)
Drive Inverter Warning: Battery under voltage.
HV bus voltage (refer to busVoltage) drops below lower voltage threshold (refer to busHighLimit)
Unable to produce torque/power from drive unit
Drive Inverter Warning: Battery over voltage detected in software.
HV bus voltage (refer to busVoltage) exceeds upper voltage theshold (refer to busHighLimit)
Unable to produce torque/power from drive unit
