OPERATION
  • The battery voltage is applied to the engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 83) from the A/C-ECU (terminal No. 4).
FUNCTION
  • When the A/C switch is in "ON" position, A/C switch ON signal is inputted to the engine-A/T-ECU from the A/C-ECU. In response to the signal, the engine-A/T-ECU controls the A/C compressor relay.
PROBABLE CAUSE
  • Failed A/C
  • Failed A/C system
  • Open/short circuit in A/C circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-A/T-ECU
       
  • Measure engine-A/T-ECU terminal voltage.
  • Engine: Idling
  • A/C set temperature:
    • Maximum Cool when temperature in cabin is 25°C or more
    • Maximum Hot when temperature in cabin is 25°C or less
  • Voltage between terminal No. 83 and earth.
OK:
  • System voltage (when A/C is ON)
  • 0.5 V or less (when A/C is OFF)
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 6 .
NO:  Go to Step 2 .
   
  • Measure engine-A/T-ECU terminal voltage.
  • Engine: Idling
  • A/C set temperature:
    • Maximum Cool when temperature in cabin is 25°C or more
    • Maximum Hot when temperature in cabin is 25°C or less
  • Voltage between terminal No. 4 and earth.
OK: System voltage
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 5 .
NO:  Go to Step 3 .
           
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 4 .
NO:  Repair.
           
NOTE: Before checking harness, check intermediate connector C-104, and repair if necessary.
  • Check output line for short circuit.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Check A/C system (Refer to GROUP 55A - Troubleshooting ).
NO:  Repair.
           
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES: 
  • Check intermediate connector C-104, and repair if necessary. If intermediate connector is normal, check and repair harness between C-06 (terminal No. 4) A/C-ECU connector and C-110 (terminal No. 83) engine-A/T-ECU connector.
    • Check output line for open circuit.
NO:  Repair.
       
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 7 .
NO:  Repair.
