HONDA CIVIC HYBRID P1440 DIAG AND REPAIR

Honda Civic Hybrid P1440 Motor Power Inverter MPI Module Output Circuit Malfunction code with the dash lit up like a Christmas Tree. In this video I will walk you through the process of testing for this code, also explaining the different components in this vehicle. Honda does not make troubleshooting these Hybrids very easy. I will explain how to perform the repair showing you what it looks like when taken a part.

I thought that this was a diesel channel! All kidding aside, you are one well rounded technician!! Great vid as always!

[@greasee.monkey7224]

After watching this I shall knight you Nuts and Bolts with Professor Tone. This one is definitely above my pay grade. I'm more of an engine tech. Great video brotha, I learned alot as always.👍👍

[@davidposada6256]

Hey man, Your videos are super informative on youtube! Im about to begin working on getting my inverter replaced and after watching your video Im left with one question on how to actually take the inverter off the pcu assembly. Thanks , God bless!

[@nosliwttam77]

Thanks for sharing. Got my liner Friday afternoon. 👍

[@gabesanchez9830]

Thank you for this video. Super detailed and explanatory. I have to test everything this weekend but I’m almost positive it’s the MPI module/inverter/inverter converter/ intelligent inverter/part

[@nzdiagnostics4991]

Nice work Tone!

[@etrgarage]

Good stuff Tone! 🤟

Gracias.. muy buen video..

[@shawnjackson9944]

Haha…I spent about half hr doing exactly what he said in the beginning before watching this …Trying to decipher Honda’s nomenclature, it’s like “we don’t know what to call it so we we just use a bunch of names and not tell anyone they all mean the same thing”

I had that part fail for the second time, and I out of the two I make one , had to learn how to weld and un-weld the circuit board, and I notice there is a termal paste and I had my personal theory that termal paste is old and is not doing the work any more and it fails did replace the paste too

This is very helpful.I have same issue with my car. . I have under 150K.I have not bought seperate extended Warranty. What should i tell deler to get it covered. Thanks.

[@yooshinkim1853]

Thanks for your effort. It looks more clear to me how it should approach for fixing my 2012 Honda Civic Hybrid. I already disassembled earlier to check any visible damage in inverter/converter. But could't find any thing while looking into circuit board. So, my question is what part number have you changed to fix the error code P1440. I also believe another P0A78 and P15A5 are just related error codes caused by P1440. Please share me your expertise. I am in Melbourne and doomed LOCKDOWN a whole year.

Did you have to take classes for hybrid ? Or just like the normal safety ones that you use for multiple car brands

[@olinz0r]

Where is all this information available ? THanks for sharing

[@shariqalvi9222]

Hi Guys. - very helpful video. I have the same issue. And the quote that I got from Honda is just too high. I got a local mechanic who works on Hybrid batteries and he can do this for me. One question that he had was does this require battery recalibration ? Since the battery would need to be unplugged and everything might get reset. Let me know please. Thank you.

[@ronaldoquintos1675]

That does basically same thing as an inverter except drive an electric compressor because Honda civic hybrid has belt driven ac compressor. I am confused as well since Honda cal it a different name. First I had a code POA5E fixed it by replacing a short in the MCM then the P1440 popped up after fixing the code now I’m confused since Honda call it by different name

[@kassiangreene1615]

Where can I find the tsb? I've got a 2013 that would fall under this.
