CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

This diagnostic test indicates if the A/C request circuit is shorted to voltage. This is done by comparing the A/C Request line (CKT 603) to the serial data received from the HVAC controller. If A/C is not requested by serial data and the A/C Request line (CKT 603) is high, voltage present, then DTC P1538 is set.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC

^ DTC P1605 not set.

^ A/C compressor not requested by the HVAC programmer via serial data.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC

A/C request line high continuously for 20 seconds.
