STEP 6. Measure the resistance at rear heater control unit
connector E-01 <vehicles with rear heater>, rear cooler
control unit connector E-09 <vehicles with rear cooler> or
rear A/C control unit connector E-20 <vehicles with rear
A/C>.

(1) Disconnect rear heater control unit connector E-01

<vehicles with rear heater>, rear cooler control unit
connector E-09 <vehicles with rear cooler> or rear A/C
control unit connector E-20 <vehicles with rear A/C>, and
measure at the wiring harness side.

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

• The measured value should be 2 ohms or less.

Q: Does the measured resistance value correspond with

this range?
YES : Replace the rear heater control unit <vehicles with

rear heater>, rear cooler control unit <vehicles with
rear cooler> or rear A/C control unit <vehicles with
rear A/C>, and check that the rear air conditioning
works normally.

NO : Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Check the wiring harness between rear heater
control unit connector E-01 (terminal 2) <vehicles with rear
heater>, rear cooler control unit connector E-09 (terminal
2) <vehicles with rear cooler> or rear A/C control unit
connector E-20 (terminal 2) <vehicles with rear A/C> and
the ground.

NOTE: Also check joint connector (8) connectors D-30. If joint
connector (8) connectors D-30 is damaged, repair or replace
the connector as described in GROUP 00E, Harness Connec-
tor Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between rear heater control unit

connector E-01 (terminal 2) <vehicles with rear heater>,
rear cooler control unit connector E-09 (terminal 2)
<vehicles with rear cooler> or rear A/C control unit
connector E-20 (terminal 2) <vehicles with rear A/C> and
the ground in good condition?
YES : Replace the rear heater control unit connector E-01

<vehicles with rear heater>, rear cooler control unit
connector E-09 <vehicles with rear cooler> or rear
A/C control unit connector E-20 <vehicles with rear
A/C>, and check that the rear air conditioning works
normally.

NO : Repair the wiring harness. Check that the rear air

conditioning works normally.

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the rear heater switch (temperature control
switch).

Connect the tester between the connector terminal number 3
and number 5, between the terminal number 5 and number 13
and make sure that the resistance value changes slowly within
the standard value.

Standard value: 0

− 3 kΩ

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Replace the rear air-conditioner switch.
