Signal Too High / Signal Missing






Signal too high / Signal missing

Checking the fan for the passenger compartment temperature sensor




- Ignition on.
Check using a hand that the fan for the passenger compartment temperature sensor is blowing.
If the fan is now working, the fault was caused by contact resistance or loose connections.

Is the fan working?

Yes - Checking the connectors and wiring

No - Checking the component and wiring

-------------------------------------------------

Checking the connectors and wiring




- Ignition off
- Disconnect the connector for the climate control module (CCM)
- Disconnect the connector for the fan/passenger compartment temperature sensor.

Hint: If there is an open-circuit in the wiring for the power supply and ground, the climate control module (CCM) will not power the fan.

Check the power supply to the fan. Check for an intermittent open-circuit. Take a reading on the cable between climate control module (CCM) terminal #4 (#28) and fan terminal #4 (#24).
Check the ground lead for the fan. Check for an intermittent open-circuit. Take a reading on the fan connector between terminal #2 (#22) and chassis ground.
Check the connectors. Check for loose connections. Check for contact resistance. Check for oxidation.
Check the ground lead for the fan. Check for an intermittent short-circuit to supply voltage.
Take a reading on the fan connector between terminals #2 (#22) and #4 (#24).
Remedy as necessary.

Verification

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.








- Ignition off
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Ignition on.
Check by feeling with a hand that the fan is blowing.

Is the fan working?

Yes - VERIFIED

No - VERIFICATION FAILED

Information

Fault-tracing information
If the fault is intermittent, do not verify fault-tracing if the fault does not recur.
It is possible to view the information again, or leave fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

Do you want to view the information again?

Yes - Attempt New Test

No - FAULT FOUND
