P130229 — Rotor temperature signal invalid
Quick answer
P130229 indicates that the motor controller considers the drive motor's rotor temperature signal invalid, so it limits motor output to protect the motor.
What to check first
- Read all stored fault codes with a scan tool and deal with related codes first.
- High-voltage system: do not open or disconnect high-voltage components. Refer the car to a technician qualified for high-voltage work.
Can I still drive?
Have it inspected before further driving. If in doubt, park the car and ask a technician — a fault that limits power or shuts the high-voltage system down will not clear by itself.
