Diagnostic Procedure

INEFFECTIVE OPERATION OF A/C DURING ENGINE STOP, I-STOP SYSTEM (SKYACTIV-G VIN Y) DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step Inspection Results Action
1 DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS i-stop SYSTEM OR A/C SYSTEM 
  • Verify the malfunction symptom.
  • Does the malfunction occur only while the i-stop function is operating (engine stopped)?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Go to the applicable A/C malfunction diagnostic procedure.
(See TROUBLESHOOTING INDEX [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER] .)
2 VERIFY DTC 
  • Perform the DTC inspection for the following modules. (See DTC INSPECTION .)
    • PCM
    • Dash-electrical supply unit
    • Body control module (BCM)
  • Are any DTCs displayed?
Yes Repair the malfunctioning location according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
(See DTC TABLE [PCM (SKYACTIV-G VIN Y)] .)
(See DTC TABLE [DASH-ELECTRICAL SUPPLY UNIT] .)
(See DTC TABLE [BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM)] .)
No Go to the next step.
3 DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL OR OTHER 
  • Switch the ignition ON (engine off).
  • Compare the ambient temperature sensor on the multi-information display with the actual ambient temperature.
  • Does the ambient temperature on the multi-information display correspond to the actual ambient temperature?
Yes Go to Step 6.
No Go to the next step.
4 INSPECT AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR FOR MALFUNCTION 
Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
(See AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER] .)
5 INSPECT AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT AND GROUND CIRCUIT FOR SHORT CIRCUIT AND OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Inspect the applicable circuit for a short circuit and open circuit. (See CIRCUIT INSPECTION .)
  • Is the circuit normal?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
6 DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS PASSENGER COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL OR OTHER 
Yes Go to Step 9.
No Go to the next step.
7 INSPECT PASSENGER COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR FOR MALFUNCTION 
Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
(See PASSENGER COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER] .)
8 INSPECT PASSENGER COMPARTMENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT AND GROUND CIRCUIT FOR SHORT CIRCUIT AND OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Inspect the applicable circuit for a short circuit and open circuit. (See CIRCUIT INSPECTION .)
  • Is the circuit normal?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
9 DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS SOLAR RADIATION SENSOR SIGNAL OR OTHER 
Yes Go to Step 11.
No Go to the next step.
10 INSPECT SOLAR RADIATION SENSOR LIN COMMUNICATION LINE FOR SHORT CIRCUIT AND OPEN CIRCUIT 
  • Inspect the applicable circuit for a short circuit and open circuit. (See CIRCUIT INSPECTION .)
  • Is the circuit normal?
Yes Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.
(See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW .)
  • If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
11 INSPECT DRIVER-SIDE AIR MIX ACTUATOR FOR MALFUNCTION 
Yes Inspect the air mix door and linkage for sticking.
(See A/C UNIT DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY .)
If there is no malfunction: 
  • Go to the next step.

If there is any malfunction: 
  • Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
(See AIR MIX ACTUATOR REMOVAL [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER] .)
(See AIR MIX ACTUATOR INSTALLATION [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER] .)
Repair completion verification 1 VERIFY THAT VEHICLE IS REPAIRED 
  • Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.
  • Has the malfunction symptom been eliminated?
Yes Complete the symptom troubleshooting. (Explain contents of repair to customer)
No Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.
(See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW .)
  • If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
    • If the malfunction recurs, go to the next step.
Repair completion verification 2 VERIFY IF MALFUNCTION IS CAUSED BY NOT PERFORMING PCM REPROGRAMMING 
  • Verify repair information and verify that there is a new calibration in the PCM.
  • Is there a new calibration in the PCM?
Yes Perform the PCM reprogramming and verify if the malfunction symptom was corrected.
No Replace the PCM.
(See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
