Heating & A/C System: 74

74-AC REQUEST OUTPUT SIGNAL TOO LOW





For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information Electrical Diagrams.

- When Monitored:
With the ignition on.

- Set Condition:
If the A/C Heater Control detects voltage below 1.51 volts on the (C221) A/C Switch Sense circuit.





NOTE: This DTC must be active for the results of this test to be valid. Do not perform this test if this DTC is stored. for stored DTC test procedures.

1. CHECK (C221) A/C SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT VOLTAGE AT A/C HEATER CONTROL C1 HARNESS CONNECTOR




1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Measure the voltage of the (C221) A/C Switch Sense circuit.

Is the voltage below 4.8 volts?

Yes

- Go To 2

No

- Replace the A/C Heater Control.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST Body Verification Test.

2. CHECK (C221) A/C SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND




1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Instrument Cluster C3 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (C221) A/C Switch Sense circuit between ground and the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10K ohms?

Yes

- Repair the (C221) A/C Switch Sense circuit for a short to ground.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST Body Verification Test.

No

- Go To 3

3. CHECK (C221) A/C SWITCH SENSE CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN




1. Measure the resistance of the (C221) A/C Switch Sense circuit between the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector and the Instrument Cluster C3 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes

- Replace the Instrument Cluster (CCN).
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST Body Verification Test.

No

- Repair the (C221) A/C Switch Sense circuit for an open.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST Body Verification Test.
