SYMPTOM PROCEDURES

23Ad-35

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this case:)

• Malfunction of the dual pressure switch

• Damaged harness, connector

• Malfunction of A/C system

• Malfunction of the PCM

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991502, check data list item 65:
Dual Pressure Switch.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Set scan tool MB991502 to data reading mode for item 65,

Dual Pressure Switch.

• When the A/C is in operation, scan tool MB991502 dis-

play should be "ON."

• When the A/C is not in operation, scan tool MB991502

display should be "OFF."

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the switch operating properly?

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 Malfunction

P.00-6

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check dual pressure switch connector A-22 for
loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are the connector and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged components. Refer to

GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

STEP 3. Measure the power supply voltage at dual
pressure switch connector A-22.
(1) Disconnect the connector A-22 and measure at the harness

side.

(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Operate the A/C.

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

• The voltage should measure battery positive voltage.

(5) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage battery positive voltage?

YES : Go to Step 10.
NO : Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at A/C-ECU
connector D-23 <Vehicles with full automatic A/C> or
automatic compressor controller connector D-119
<Vehicles with manual A/C> by backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect connector D-23 <Vehicles with full

automatic A/C> or D-119 <Vehicles with manual A/C>.

(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Operate the A/C.

(4) Measure the voltage between A/C-ECU connector D-23

terminal 5 and ground by backprobing. <Vehicles with full
automatic A/C>
Measure the voltage between automatic compressor
controller connector D-119 terminal 4 and ground by
backprobing. <Vehicles with manual A/C>

• The voltage should measure battery positive voltage.

(5) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage battery positive voltage?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check intermediate connector D-28, A/C-ECU
connector D-23 <Vehicles with full automatic A/C> and
automatic compressor controller connector D-119
<Vehicles with manual A/C> for loose, corroded or
damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the
connector.
Q: Are the connectors and terminals in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged components. Refer to
