STEP 12. Measure the voltage at A/C compressor clutch
relay connector A-12X.
(1) Disconnect A/C compressor connector A-12X and measure

the voltage at the relay box side.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal 5 and ground.

• The measured value should be approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Does the measured voltage correspond with this range?

YES : Go to Step 15.
NO : Go to Step 13.

STEP 13. Check A/C compressor clutch relay connector
A-12X for damage.

Q: Is A/C compressor clutch relay connector A-12X in

good condition?
YES : Go to Step 14.
NO : Repair or replace the connector. Refer to GROUP

00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Check

that the air conditioning works normally.

STEP 14. Check the wiring harness between A/C
compressor clutch relay connector A-12X (terminal 5) and
the fusible link (1).

Q: Is the wiring harness between A/C compressor clutch

relay connector A-12X (terminal 5) and the fusible link
(1) in good condition?
YES : Check that the air conditioning works normally.
NO : Repair the wiring harness. Check that the air

conditioning works normally.
