connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 3.

NO :

Repair the connector.

STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between C-36
A/C-ECU connector (terminals 1 and 20) and
C-142 interior temperature sensor connector
(terminals 2 and 1).

• Check the sensor signal line and earth line for

open or short circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Replace the automatic A/C control panel

(A/C-ECU)
