Quick answer

P1A75 identifies an abnormal high-input temperature signal for CMU12 in the main drive lithium-ion battery monitoring system. Verified applicability is limited to U.S.-spec Mitsubishi i-MiEV model years 2012, 2014, and 2016.

This page separates verified manufacturer/regulator evidence from supporting material. Unsupported causes, repairs or safety conclusions are not guessed.

1. What does P1A75 mean?

P1A75 identifies an abnormal high-input temperature signal for CMU12 in the main drive lithium-ion battery monitoring system. Verified applicability is limited to U.S.-spec Mitsubishi i-MiEV model years 2012, 2014, and 2016.

2. Technical explanation

Mitsubishi technical service bulletins identify P1A75 as “CMU12 module temperature abnormal (high input)” / “CMU12 Battery Temperature.” The judgment conditions include at least 3 seconds after the electric motor switch is turned ON or at least 3 seconds after main drive lithium-ion battery charging begins. The listed conditions also require that P1AA8 (Bat-CAN signal timeout / Local CAN for Main Drive Lithium-ion Battery) and U1082 (Bat-CAN bus-off) are not set.

3. What system is affected?

CMU12 temperature monitoring within the main drive lithium-ion battery system.

4. How serious is this code?

Not yet established by verified evidence.

5. Symptoms you may notice

  • Not yet established by verified evidence.

6. Possible causes

  • Not yet established by verified evidence.

7. Can I still drive the vehicle?

Not yet established by verified evidence.

8. Can I charge the vehicle?

Not yet established by verified evidence.

9. What you can safely do

  • Do not perform high-voltage battery repairs or disassembly.
  • Have the vehicle evaluated by a qualified Mitsubishi EV service provider.

10. Step-by-step troubleshooting

  1. Confirm the stored DTC with suitable diagnostic equipment.
  2. Check whether P1AA8 or U1082 is also stored, as the verified judgment conditions state that these codes must not be set for P1A75 judgment.
  3. Further diagnostic procedure is not established by the supplied verified evidence.

11. When to contact service

Service need is not explicitly established by the supplied record; however, because this code concerns the main drive lithium-ion battery temperature-monitoring system, seek evaluation from a qualified Mitsubishi EV service provider.

12. What the service center may check

  • Retrieve and document all stored diagnostic trouble codes.
  • Verify whether the conditions described in Mitsubishi bulletin evidence are present: at least 3 seconds after the electric motor switch is turned ON or after main drive lithium-ion battery charging begins.
  • Determine whether P1AA8 or U1082 is stored.

13. Possible repair or resolution

  • Not yet established by verified evidence.
