earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Replace the automatic A/C control panel

(A/C-ECU).

NO :

Go to Step 8.

STEP 8. Connector check: C-36 A/C-ECU

NOTE:

Prior to the wiring harness inspection, check interme-
diate connector C-129 and joint connector C-05, and
repair if necessary.

• Check the A/C-ECU power supply (battery

back-up) line for open or short circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

The trouble can be an intermittent

malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00, How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunction

P.00-5

).

NO :

Repair the wiring harness.

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Connector check: B-13X A/C
compressor relay connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Repair the connector.

STEP 2. Check the A/C compressor relay
continuity.
Refer to

P.55-107

.

Q: Is the A/C compressor relay in good condition?

YES :

Go to Step 3.

NO :

Replace the A/C compressor relay.

STEP 3. Voltage measurement at B-13X A/C
compressor relay connector.

(1) Remove the relay, and measure at the relay box

side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 2 and

body earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :
