STEP 5. Check the A/C pressure sensor operation.
(1) Assemble a gauge manifold on the high pressure service

valve.

(2) Disconnect the A/C pressure sensor connector and connect

special tool test harness MB991658 as shown in the
illustration.

(3) Turn ON the engine and then turn ON the A/C switch.

(4) At this time, check to see that the voltage of A/C pressure

sensor terminal No. 2 reflects the specifications of the
figure.
NOTE: The allowance shall be defined as

±

5%.

Q: Is the A/C pressure sensor operating properly?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Replace the A/C pressure sensor. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 6. Check the refrigerant level.
Use the refrigerant recovery station to remove all of the refrig-
erant, and then calculate the amount of the refrigerant and
charge it.
Q: Is the refrigerant level correct?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Correct the refrigerant level (Refer to On-vehicle

Service

P.55A-108

). Then go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Check again if the DTC is set.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check if the DTC is set.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : The procedure is complete.
NO : Return to Step 1.

DTC B2214: Control Panel Failure

.

DTC SET CONDITION

DTC B2214 will be set when the A/C-ECU detects
the A/C control panel abnormality.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

Current trouble

• The A/C-ECU, the A/C control panel, or connec-

tor(s) or wiring between the two may be defec-
tive.

Past trouble

• If DTC B2214 is stored as a past trouble, carry

out diagnosis with particular emphasis on wiring
and connector(s) between the A/C-ECU and the
A/C control panel. If the connectors and wiring
are normal, and obviously the ECU is the cause
of the trouble, replace the ECU. If in doubt, do not
replace the ECU.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINT

• Malfunction of connector.

• Malfunction of the harness.

• Malfunction of the A/C control panel.

• Malfunction of the A/C-ECU.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tool:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with

CAN communication system)

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus
line

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958. Refer to "How to connect the

Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III)

P.55A-7

."

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose the CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the CAN bus line found to be normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair the CAN bus line. (Refer to GROUP 54C,

Diagnosis

P.54C-17

).

STEP 2. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
Recheck if the DTC is set.
(1) Erase the DTC.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to "ON" position.
(3) Check if the DTC is set.
Q: Is the check result satisfactory?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

STEP 3. Check A/C control panel connector C-119 and
A/C-ECU connector C-109 for loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Are A/C control panel connector C-119 and A/C-ECU

connector C-109 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair or replace the connector. Refer to GROUP

00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

STEP 4. Check the wiring harness between A/C-ECU
connector C-109 (terminal 9) and A/C control panel
connector C-119 (terminal 9).

• Check the A/C control panel signal line for open and short

circuit.

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

C-109 (terminal 9) and A/C control panel connector
C-119 (terminal 9) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 5. Recheck for diagnostic trouble code.
