A/C Pressure Switch Circuit Troubleshooting
A/C Pressure Switch Circuit TroubleshootingNOTE:
- Do not use this troubleshooting procedure if any of the following items are operative; A/C condenser fan, radiator fan, A/C compressor. Refer to the symptom troubleshooting index. Climate Control
- Before performing symptom troubleshooting, check for powertrain DTCs.
1. Check for body DTCs using B-CAN system diagnosis test mode A troubleshooting.
Are there any DTCs indicated?
YES - Do the appropriate troubleshooting for the DTC indicated.
NO - Go to step 2.
2. Disconnect the A/C pressure switch 4P connector.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
4. Measure the voltage between the No. 1 terminal of the A/C pressure switch 4P connector and body ground.
Is there 5 V or more?
YES - Go to step 5.
NO - Repair open in the wire between the relay control module and the A/C pressure switch.
5. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
6. Check for continuity between the No. 1 and No. 4 terminals of the A/C pressure switch.
Is there continuity?
YES - Go to step 7.
NO - Go to step 16.
7. Reconnect the A/C pressure switch 4P connector.
8. Disconnect climate control unit 30P connector.
9. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
10. Measure the voltage between the No. 1 terminal of the climate control unit 30P connector and body ground.
Is there 5 V or more?
YES - Go to step 11.
NO - Repair the open in the wire between the climate control unit and the A/C pressure switch.
11. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
12. Measure the evaporator temperature sensor resistance between the No. 21 and No. 30 terminals of the climate control unit 30P connector.
Is the resistance less than 24 kohms?
YES - Go to step 13.
NO - Test the evaporator temperature sensor.
13. Reconnect the climate control unit 30P connector.
14. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
15. Check that blower motor operates at all speeds.
Does the blower motor operate at all speeds?
YES - Check for loose wires or poor connections at the climate control unit 30P connector and at the A/C pressure switch 4P connector. If the connections are good, substitute a known-good climate control unit and recheck. If the symptom/indication goes away, replace the original climate control unit.
NO - Repair the problem in the blower motor circuit.
16. Check for proper A/C system pressure.
Is the pressure within specifications?
YES - Replace the A/C pressure switch.
NO - Repair the A/C pressure problem.
