Inspection Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Toyota 4Runner. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Check voltage between terminals TW and SG of A/C control assembly connector.
- PREPARATION:
- Remove A/C control assembly with connectors still connected AIR CONDITIONING .
- Turn Ignition Switch To On.
- Check:
- Measure voltage between terminals TW and SG of A/C control assembly connector at each engine coolant temperature.
- OK:
- Voltage
- At 0°C (32°F): 2.8-3.2V
- At 40°C (104°F): 1.8-2.2 V
- At 70°C (158°F): 0.9-1.3 V
Hint:
As The temperature increases, the voltage decreases.
- NG: Go To Step 2
- OK: Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on problem symptoms table, see PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE . However, If DTC 14 is displayed, check and replace A/C control assembly.
- PREPARATION:
- Check engine coolant temperature sensor.
- PREPARATION:
- Remove engine coolant temperature sensor AIR CONDITIONING .
- CHECK:
- Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 3 of engine coolant temperature sensor connector at each temperature.
- OK:
- Resistance:
- At 0°C (32°F): Below 50 k/ohms
- At 40°C (104°F): 2.5-2.7 k/ohms
- At 100°C (212°F): Over 0.3 k/ohms
Hint:
As The Temperature Increases, The Resistance Decreases Gradually.
- NG: Replace engine coolant temperature sensor.
- OK: Go to next step
- Check harness and connector between A/C control assembly and engine coolant temperature sensor see INTRODUCTION
- NG: Repair or replace harness or connector.
- OK: Check and replace A/C control assembly.
