NOTE: Also check junction block connectors C-211 and C-215
for loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed
back in the connector. If junction block connector C-211 or
C-215 is damaged, repair or replace the connector as
described in GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between A/C-ECU connector C-16

(terminal 28) and the ignition switch (IG2) in good
condition?
YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

− How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-14

.

NO : Repair the wiring harness. Check that the air

conditioning works normally.

STEP 4. Measure the voltage at A/C-ECU connector C-16.
(1) Disconnect A/C-ECU connector C-16 and measure the

voltage at the harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ACC" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 36 and ground.

• The measured value should be approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Is the measured voltage approx. 12 volts?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between A/C-ECU
connector C-16 (terminal 36) and the ignition switch (ACC).

NOTE: Also check intermediate connector C-29 for loose, cor-
roded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector. If intermediate connector C-29 is damaged, repair or
replace the connector as described in GROUP 00E, Harness

STEP 6. Measure the voltage at A/C-ECU connector C-15.
(1) Disconnect A/C-ECU connector C-16 and measure the

voltage at the harness side.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal 3 and ground.

• The measured value should be approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Is the measured voltage approx. 12 volts?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Check the wiring harness between A/C-ECU
connector C-15 (terminal 3) and the battery.

STEP 8. Measure the resistance at A/C-ECU connector
C-16.
(1) Disconnect A/C-ECU connector C-16, and measure at the

wiring harness side.

(2) Measure the resistance between terminal 27 and ground.

• The measured value should be 2 ohms or less.

Q: Does the measured resistance value correspond with

this range?
YES : Replace the A/C-ECU, and check that the air

conditioning works normally.

NO : Go to Step 9.
