With the details gathered, your technician can further diagnose any hybrid car problems you're having and determine what tests (if any) are needed. No repairs are performed without your consent.
Hybrid high voltage battery cooling system inspections: Your technician will inspect the Niro's battery filter (if applicable) and clean the ducts of the battery. (This applies to air-cooled high voltage batteries. Liquid-cooled or refrigerant-cooled high voltage batteries are inspected differently.)
High voltage cable inspection: The technician will inspect the exterior of the cable jackets and connectors on your 2017 Kia Niro and check to make sure no high voltage energy is transferring to the chassis. They'll let you know if the cable is damaged and needs replacement.
Isolation test: During this test, the technician will use a special tool to check for any high voltage components that are "leaking" electric energy to the chassis.
Remove and replace hybrid electric battery: Is the high voltage battery inside your Kia Niro failing or weak? Let us install a new one.
Health check for power electronic systems: We'll examine the regenerative braking, power inverter, and/or electric drive machine(s)/motor(s) in your 2017 Kia Niro.
