Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1
RECORD VEHICLE STATUS WHEN DTC WAS DETECTED TO UTILIZE WITH REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION
Note
•  Recording can be facilitated using the screen capture function of the PC.
•  Record the freeze frame data/snap shot data.
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Switch the ignition OFF.
•  Disconnect the Refrigerant pressure sensor connector.
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition, and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 8.
3
INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Disconnect the PCM connector.
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition, and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection.
•  Is the connector normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 8.
4
INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Switch the ignition OFF.
•  Verify that the Refrigerant pressure sensor connector is disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (vehicle wiring harness) and ground.
―  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal C
―  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal B
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify if there is a common connector between the following terminals.
•  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal C and PCM terminal 2BB
•  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 2BH
If there is a common connector:
―  Inspect the common connector and terminals for corrosion, damage, or disconnection and the common wiring harnesses for short to ground to determine the malfunctioning location.
―  Repair or replace the malfunctioning location.
If there is no common connector:
―  Repair or replace the malfunctioning wiring harness.
Go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
5
INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT AND GROUND CIRCUIT FOR SHORT CIRCUIT
•  Verify that the Refrigerant pressure sensor connector and the PCM connector are disconnected.
•  Switch the ignition OFF.
•  Inspect for continuity between A/C relay sensor terminals B, A (vehicle wiring harness side).
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify if there is a common connector between the following terminals.
•  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 2BH
•  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal A and PCM terminal 2BD
If there is a common connector:
―  Inspect the common connector and terminals for corrosion, damage, or disconnection and the common wiring harnesses for short circuit to determine the malfunctioning location.
―  Repair or replace the malfunctioning location.
If there is no common connector:
―  Repair or replace the malfunctioning wiring harness.
Go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
•  Verify that the Refrigerant pressure sensor connector and the PCM connector are disconnected.
•  Inspect the wiring harness for continuity between the following terminals (vehicle wiring harness side).
―  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal C and PCM terminal 2BB
―  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 2BH
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify if there is a common connector between the following terminals.
•  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal C and PCM terminal 2BB
•  Refrigerant pressure sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 2BH
If there is a common connector:
―  Inspect the common connector and terminals for corrosion, damage, or disconnection and the common wiring harnesses for an open circuit to determine the malfunctioning location.
―  Repair or replace the malfunctioning location.
If there is no common connector:
―  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.
Go to Step 8.
7
INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR
•  Reconnect all the disconnected connectors.
•  Inspect the Refrigerant pressure sensor.
•  Is the Refrigerant pressure sensor normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the Refrigerant pressure sensor, then go to the next step.
8
VERIFY THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED
•  Reconnect all the disconnected connectors.
•  Refer to the [MEMORY CLEARING PROCEDURE] and clear the DTC.
•  Start the engine.
•  Turn the A/C on.
•  Display the DTCs using the M-MDS.
