A power inverter for driving an electric machine is configured to apply a voltage to the electric machine based on a high-frequency injection current. Three phase currents are measured and input into a current controller. A voltage command output from the current controller is monitored using a discrete Fourier transform to determine a positive and negative sequence voltage of the voltage command. The sequence voltages are compared to expected positive and negative sequence voltages. A loss of connection diagnostic is output if a magnitude of the difference between the expected and actual sequence voltages is greater than a predetermined threshold.
