Start by checking the "Possible Causes" listed above. Visually inspect the related wiring harness and connectors. Check for damaged components and look for broken, bent, pushed out, or corroded connector's pins.
The cost to diagnose the P0C5E code is 1.0 hour of labor. The auto repair's diagnosis time and labor rates vary by location, vehicle's make and model, and even your engine type. Most auto repair shops charge between $75 and $150 per hour.
The motor resolver is a type of sensor that detects the position of the magnetic poles, which are indispensable for ensuring the highly efficient control of the MG1 and MG2.
The stator of the resolver contains an excitation coil and two detection coils. Because the rotor has an oval shape, the gap between the stator and the rotor changes as the rotor turns. An alternating current with a predetermined frequency flows through the excitation coil, and detection coils S and C output alternating currents in accordance with the position of the sensor rotor.
The HV control ECU detects the absolute position of the rotor in accordance with the phases of detection coils S and C and the height of their waveform. Furthermore, the CPU calculates the amount of change in the position within a predetermined length of time, in order to use the resolver as a speed sensor.
