A vehicle powertrain has a traction battery, an electric machine, a power converter including a pair of series connected switches defining a phase leg for the electric machine, and a controller. The controller drives the switches with respective pulse width modulated signals to transfer power from the traction battery to the electric machine. Each of the respective pulse width modulated signals defines a low state and a high state. The controller further, responsive to a current flowing through one of the switches exceeding a predetermined threshold and the pulse width modulated signal for the other of the switches having the high state, stops driving the switches.
