B106E-12-REAR BLOWER CONTROL - CIRCUIT SHORT TO BATTERY
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.
Theory of Operation
The Rear A/C Heater Control works in conjunction with the A/C Heater Control to control the rear blower motor, rear temperature control and rear mode control. The Rear A/C Heater Control is constantly monitored by the A/C Heater Control for proper operation. If the monitored signal circuits are out of a calibrated range a DTC will set. For further information Description and Operation.
- When Monitored:
With the ignition on.
- Set Condition:
If the A/C Heater Control detects a short to voltage on the Rear Blower Control circuit. If a valid voltage is detected the DTC will change from active to stored and stay in the controllers memory for 100 consecutive ignition cycles.
Always perform the HVAC Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. HVAC Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting Procedure.
1. VERIFY THE DTC IS ACTIVE
1. Ignition on, engine not running.
2. With the scan tool, erase HVAC DTCs.
3. Turn the ignition off, wait 10 seconds, and turn the ignition on.
4. After waiting a minimum of 30 seconds, read HVAC DTCs.
Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Go To 5
2. CHECK FOR TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE DTCS
1. Ignition on, engine not running.
2. With the scan tool, read Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) DTCs.
Does the scan tool display any Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) DTCs as active?
Yes
- Testing and Inspection and perform the appropriate diagnostic procedure.
No
- Go To 3
3. CHECK THE (C57) REAR BLOWER MOTOR CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
1. Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
2. Disconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.
3. Disconnect the Rear Blower Motor Power Module harness connector.
4. Ignition on, engine not running.
5. Measure the voltage of the (C57) Rear Blower Motor Control circuit.
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
- Repair the (C57) Rear Blower Motor Control circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. HVAC Verification Test.
No
- Go To 4
4. CHECK THE REAR BLOWER MOTOR POWER MODULE
1. Turn the ignition off to the lock position.
2. Replace the Rear Blower Motor Power Module. Rear Blower Motor Power Module - Removal.
3. Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. HVAC Verification Test.
Did this DTC reset performing the HVAC Verification Test?
Yes
- Replace and program the A/C Heater Control. A/C And Heater Control - Removal.
- Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. HVAC Verification Test.
No
- Test complete.
5. CHECK THE WIRING AND CONNECTORS
1. The conditions necessary to set the DTC are not present at this time.
2. With the scan tool, check the Environmental Data to help identify the conditions in which the DTC was set.
3. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check all related splices and connectors for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals, and correct pin tension.
4. Wiggle the wiring and connectors while checking for shorted and open circuits.
Were there any problems found?
Yes
- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. HVAC Verification Test.
No
- Test complete.
