Diagnostic Strategies
DUAL ELECTRONIC AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL (DATC) MODULE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES - DTCsIf using the scan tool or front panel diagnostics to check for DATC DTCs:
1. Check continuous DTCs.
2. Run DATC self-test. Refer to Front Panel DATC Self-Test (On-demand Diagnostic Trouble Codes - DTCs). Dual Automatic Temperature Control Module Self-Test
General Information:
- If the DTC is continuous only and does not appear in the self-test, this indicates an intermittent fault condition, such as a poor wiring connection or a loose terminal. If the DATC does not appear after running the self-test it may also indicate that the DTC may no longer exist.
- If the DTC is continuous and appears in the self-test, this indicates a hard fault. A hard fault suggests a permanent wiring failure, disconnected connector or component failure.
