AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING

55B-45

STEP 18. Check the wiring harness between powertrain
control module connector D-132 (terminal 8) and A/C
compressor clutch relay connector A-12X (terminal 1).

NOTE: Also check intermediate connector A-03. If intermediate
connector A-03 is damaged, repair or replace the connector as
described in GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between powertrain control

module connector D-132 (terminal 8) and A/C
compressor clutch relay connector A-12X (terminal 1) in
good condition?
YES : Check that the air conditioning works normally.
NO : Repair the wiring harness. Check that the air

conditioning works normally.

AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING

55B-46

STEP 19. Check the dual pressure switch operation.
(1) Remove the dual pressure switch connector and connect

the high/low pressure side terminals located on the harness
side as shown in the illustration.

(2) Install a gauge manifold to the high-pressure side service

valve of the refrigerant line (Refer to

P.55B-157

).

(3) When the high/low pressure sides of the dual pressure

switch are at operation pressure (ON) and there is
continuity between the respective terminals, then the
condition is normal.

Q: Is the dual pressure switch operating properly?

YES : Go to Step 20.
NO : Replace the dual pressure switch. Check that the air

conditioning works normally.

STEP 20. Check dual pressure switch connector A-22 and
A/C-ECU connector D-23 for damage.

Q: Are dual pressure switch connector A-22 and A/C-ECU

connector D-23 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 21.
NO : Repair or replace the connector. Refer to GROUP

00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Check

that the air conditioning works normally.
