CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT INSPECTION [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER]


id0740a1802200

1.  Remove the climate control unit with the connector connected. (See CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER].)

2.  Switch the ignition to ON.

3.  Connect the negative (-) lead of the tester to the body ground.

4.  Insert the positive (+) lead of the climate control unit connector and measure the voltage of each terminal following the terminal voltage table.

•  If a malfunction is verified, inspect the parts under the “Inspection item(s)”.
―  If the parts under “Inspection item(s)” are found to be normal (except for terminal W), replace the climate control unit.
―  For terminal W, first replace the power MOS FET. If a malfunction is still present, replace the climate control unit.
