Fault in the Generator / Hybrid Drive Inverter System. The drive controller detected incorrect operation of the generator or inverter module in a hybrid or electric vehicle.

OBD-II (EN): Hybrid Drive Generator/Inverter System Fault

Code P3210 indicates incorrect operation of the generator or inverter in the vehicle's hybrid system. Causes may include an inverter fault, HV system cooling problems, or damage to high-voltage wiring. Due to working with voltages reaching hundreds of volts, diagnosis and repair of this code should be carried out exclusively by a certified workshop authorized to service hybrid vehicles.

Symptoms

Engine or hybrid system warning light on the dashboard; limited drive power or vehicle entering limp mode; reduced regenerative braking efficiency; hybrid system warning on the display; vehicle may not start or start with difficulty; possible drivetrain overheating.

Possible causes

• Damage or wear of the hybrid drive inverter module • Fault in the generator (MG1/MG2) or its windings • Faulty inverter cooling system (clogged radiator, low inverter coolant level) • Damaged wiring or connectors between the inverter and generator/electric motor • Fault in the hybrid control module (HV ECU) • Degradation or damage to the high-voltage battery affecting generator operation
