Watch as I create high voltage short circuits to the vehicle chassis and cause "Loss of Isolation" trouble codes to set. Learn how the vehicle detects these short circuits and how you can diagnose their source with a Megohmmeter. A 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV is the test vehicle.

ABOUT US:
Weber State University (WSU) - Department of Automotive Technology - Ardell Brown Technology Wing - Transmission Lab. This episode covers what happens with the high voltage system that loses isolation (High Voltage Leak) with the vehicle chassis of an electric vehicle (EV), plug-in electric vehicle (PHEV), or hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). A 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV is used as an example vehicle in this video.
WSU is a leader in Hybrid and Electric Vehicle education. This topic is taught as part of our 4-year bachelor's degree program. For information on joining the Weber Automotive program, visit: www.weber.edu/a...
