pushed position. A stored DTC indicates that the switch was stuck in a pushed position for more than two minutes,
but has since returned to its normal state.
NOTE: This DTC must be active for the results of this test to be valid. Do not perform this test if this DTC
is stored. Refer to HVAC System Test (ATC) for stored DTC test procedures.
